Use cases

Competitor price monitoring. Track what rival sellers charge for the same product and how their prices move. totalPrice includes shipping, so comparisons are like-for-like rather than distorted by shipping games.

Reselling and arbitrage. soldCount plus price tells you what actually moves and at what level. Filter to Buy It Now, sort by price, and find underpriced inventory.

Market and demand research. Pull hundreds of listings for a category and analyse the price distribution, condition mix and which sellers dominate.

Seller intelligence. seller, sellerFeedbackPercent and sellerFeedbackCount let you identify high-volume sellers in a niche and see how the top performers price.

Sourcing and dropshipping. Compare eBay pricing against other marketplaces to find margin.

FAQ

Do I need an eBay API key or developer account? No. Nothing to register, no keys, no OAuth.

Are duplicates billed? No. eBay repeats listings across pages; results are deduplicated on itemId and you are only charged for unique items.

What happens if eBay blocks a page? Blocked pages are detected, skipped and never billed. The run reports blocked_pages in its summary.

How many results can I get per keyword? Practically, several thousand. eBay's own pagination degrades on very deep pages, so splitting a broad keyword into narrower ones returns more total coverage than pushing maxItems very high.

Can I scrape non-US eBay sites? Yes — set site to any eBay domain such as ebay.co.uk, ebay.de, ebay.com.au.

Can I tell sponsored listings apart? Yes. isSponsored is derived from eBay's own promotion data, and excludeSponsored filters them out entirely.

Can I run this on a schedule? Yes — use Apify's scheduler, or trigger it via API from your own pipeline.
