TCGplayer Scraper - Card Prices & Price History

TCGplayer Scraper pulls trading card prices from TCGplayer.com for Pokemon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Disney Lorcana and every other game on the site: market price, lowest price, median price, listings count, price by condition and printing, and a dated price history with sales. It is built for card shops, resellers, collectors and anyone who needs a reference price they can trust, at US$ 3 per 1,000 cards.

No login, no API key, no browser. The Actor reads the same public JSON that the TCGplayer website uses to show prices, so runs are fast and cheap. AI agents can call it through the Apify MCP server.

What you can do with it

• Price your store inventory. Pull the TCGplayer market price for every card you sell every morning and reprice your shop, your Whatnot show or your eBay listings from it.
• Resell and buy smarter. Compare the lowest listed price with the market price and the last 30 days of sales for each condition, and spot cards listed well under what they sell for.
• Arbitrage with eBay and local stores. Match eBay sold prices or your local buy list against TCGplayer market price by set and card number, and buy only where the spread pays.
• Track a collection. Paste the product links of the cards you own and schedule a weekly run: current value, value by condition and the change over the last 3, 6 or 12 months.
• Watch a new set. Browse a whole expansion (for example "151" or "Obsidian Flames") filtered by rarity and see which chase cards are rising or falling after release.
• Feed a spreadsheet, a pricing bot or an AI agent with clean, flat JSON or CSV.

Why this one

• Price by condition and printing. Near Mint, Lightly Played, Moderately Played, Heavily Played and Damaged, each with its own market price and 30-day sales, plus Normal and Foil market and listed median prices. Most TCGplayer scrapers stop at one market price per card.
• Real price history. The same series TCGplayer draws in its price chart: market price, quantity sold, number of sales, lowest and highest sale per period, for each printing, language and condition. One month, 3 months, 6 months or 12 months.
• Every game. Pokemon, Pokemon Japan, Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece Card Game, Lorcana, Flesh and Blood, Digimon, Star Wars: Unlimited, Dragon Ball Super, Gundam, Riftbound, Union Arena and the rest of the product lines TCGplayer lists, singles and sealed products.
• Filters that match the site. Game, set or expansion, rarity, market price range and the TCGplayer sort orders (best match, best selling, price high to low, price low to high, name).
• Honest billing. You pay per unique product delivered. Searches with no results, products that do not exist, invalid links, duplicates and blocked requests come back as rows with an errorCode and are never charged.
• Drop-in input. It accepts the field names of other TCGplayer scrapers (queries, searchQuery, category, productLine, sortOption, pageCount, maxResults, enrichData, rarityFilter), so you can switch without rewriting your integration.
• Seller privacy. It collects product prices only. It does not collect individual seller listings, seller names or buyer data.

Input example

Search Pokemon for "charizard", sorted by best selling, with price by condition:

{
  "searchQueries": ["charizard"],
  "game": "pokemon",
  "sortBy": "bestSelling",
  "includeDetails": true,
  "maxItems": 50
}

Every chase card of one set, most expensive first:

{
  "game": "pokemon",
  "setName": "151",
  "rarity": ["Special Illustration Rare"],
  "sortBy": "priceHighLow"
}

Price history for cards you already track:

{
  "mode": "priceHistory",
  "productUrls": [
    "https://www.tcgplayer.com/product/42382/pokemon-base-set-charizard",
    "1174"
  ],
  "historyRange": "annual"
}

With an empty input the Actor runs a small example (the "charizard" search in Pokemon, 30 products), so API and MCP calls always return data.

Input fields

Field	What it does
mode	search (default), products (details for links or IDs) or priceHistory (history rows only).
searchQueries	Card or product names, one per line. Leave empty and set game or setName to browse.
game	Product line: pokemon, magic, yugioh, one-piece-card-game, lorcana-tcg, flesh-and-blood-tcg, digimon-card-game, star-wars-unlimited, pokemon-japan... Short names like mtg, onepiece or lorcana work too.
setName	Set or expansion, full name or part of it ("Base Set", "151", "Revised Edition").
rarity	List of rarities as TCGplayer writes them ("Special Illustration Rare", "Mythic", "Secret Rare").
minPrice, maxPrice	Market price range in USD.
sortBy	bestMatch, bestSelling, priceHighLow, priceLowHigh, aToZ.
maxItems	Maximum unique products in the run (default 30).
maxItemsPerQuery	Cap per search term, so the first term does not use the whole maxItems.
includeDetails	Adds median price, sellers count, Normal/Foil prices, buylist market price and price by condition to search results. Always on in products mode. No extra charge.
includePriceHistory	Adds priceHistory rows for each product found. Charged per product with history.
historyRange	month, quarter (default), semi-annual or annual.
productUrls	TCGplayer product links or numeric product IDs.
proxyConfiguration	Apify datacenter proxy by default.

How to use it

In Apify Console

1. Type your card names in Search terms or paste links in Product links or IDs.
2. Pick a Game, and optionally a set, rarity, price range and sort order.
3. Turn on Include price by printing and condition or Include price history if you need them.
4. Click Start and download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or open one of the four views.

Via API

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapewise~tcgplayer-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchQueries": ["black lotus"], "game": "magic", "includeDetails": true, "maxItems": 20}'

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("scrapewise/tcgplayer-scraper").call(run_input={
    "game": "one-piece-card-game",
    "searchQueries": ["luffy"],
    "sortBy": "priceHighLow",
    "maxItems": 100,
})
for card in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(card["productName"], card["setName"], card["marketPrice"])

Node.js:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('scrapewise/tcgplayer-scraper').call({
    mode: 'priceHistory',
    productUrls: ['https://www.tcgplayer.com/product/42382/pokemon-base-set-charizard'],
    historyRange: 'annual',
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

Scheduling

Create a task with your card list and add a schedule (daily for repricing, weekly for a collection). Each run writes a new dataset, so you can keep the history of your own prices next to the TCGplayer history.

Integrations

Send results to Google Sheets, Airtable, Slack, a webhook, n8n, Make or Zapier with Apify integrations. A common setup: daily run, Google Sheets export, and a formula that compares your shop price with marketPrice and nearMintMarketPrice.

AI agents and MCP

The Actor works as a tool in the Apify MCP server, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients can call it: "What is the Near Mint price of Charizard ex 199/165 and how did it move in the last 3 months?". The flat output and the type field keep answers short and easy for a model to read.

Limitations

• Prices are in USD from the US marketplace, as TCGplayer shows them. TCGplayer does not publish prices in other currencies.
• Individual seller listings and the latest sales feed are not collected. They carry seller data and TCGplayer does not expose them publicly to anonymous clients. You get the aggregate numbers: lowest price, median, listings count, sellers count and sales per period.
• TCGplayer returns at most 50 products per page and 10,000 results per search. For very broad searches, split by game, set or rarity.
• maxItems counts across all search terms in order. If the first term has thousands of cards it fills the whole run; set maxItemsPerQuery to balance terms.
• A product can have no market price (no recent sales) or no price history in the period. The fields are then null and history-only products come back as NO_PRICE_HISTORY, not charged.
• The TCGplayer site can change its internal API. If a run returns errors you do not expect, open an issue in the Issues tab and it will be fixed.

This Actor collects only public product data and respects the site's terms. It does not log in, does not bypass any paywall and does not collect personal data.

FAQ

Is this an official TCGplayer API? No. TCGplayer (owned by eBay) closed new access to its developer API. This Actor reads the public price data the TCGplayer website shows to any visitor.

What is the difference between market price, lowest price and median price? Market price is TCGplayer's estimate based on recent completed sales. Lowest price is the cheapest listing right now. Median price is the middle of the current listings. For pricing a shop, most sellers use market price; for buying, lowest price with shipping.

Which games are supported? Every product line on TCGplayer: Pokemon, Pokemon Japan, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece Card Game, Disney Lorcana, Flesh and Blood, Digimon, Star Wars: Unlimited, Dragon Ball Super, Gundam, Riftbound, Union Arena, Force of Will, supplies and sealed products. Leave game empty to search all of them.

How do I get the Near Mint price of a card? Turn on includeDetails (or use products mode). Each product gets nearMintMarketPrice and the full conditionPrices list with every condition and printing.

How far back does the price history go? Up to 12 months with historyRange: "annual" (weekly points). month gives daily points, quarter about every 3 days, semi-annual weekly.

Can I search a whole set? Yes. Leave searchQueries empty, set game and setName ("151", "Base Set", "Revised Edition"), and optionally rarity and sortBy.

How many products can I get in one run? As many as you set in maxItems. A run of 320 products took under 90 seconds in our tests. For tens of thousands, split by game or set.

Why do I see rows with errorCode? They explain what happened for a term or link: no results, set not found, invalid link, product not found, no history or a blocked request. They are free and help you fix the input without guessing.

I use another TCGplayer scraper. Do I need to change my input? Usually not. The Actor reads queries, searchQuery, category, productLine, sortOption ("Best Selling", "Price: High to Low"), pageCount, maxResults, limit, enrichData, includeSalesHistory and rarityFilter.

Does it work with Google Sheets, n8n, Make or Zapier? Yes, through Apify integrations and the Apify nodes for n8n and Make, or by reading the dataset API in CSV or JSON.

Can I compare TCGplayer with eBay sold prices? Yes. Run this Actor and an eBay sold listings scraper on the same card list and join on card name, set and number. nearMintMarketPrice and conditionPrices make condition matching straightforward.
