## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Unified Resale Scraper — GOAT vs StockX Side by Side

Search one keyword or style code and get every matching sneaker's price on **both GOAT and StockX at once** — lowest ask on each, StockX's highest bid and last sale, **which marketplace is cheaper, the price spread, and the buy-low/sell-high arbitrage**. **Pay per comparison, no start fee, no subscription.**

- ⚖️ **Side-by-side** — GOAT lowest ask vs StockX lowest ask for the same product
- 🏷️ **Cheapest flagged** — `cheapestSource` + `priceSpreadUsd` per row
- 💹 **Arbitrage** — `arbitrageUsd` = StockX highest bid − cheapest ask (buy low, sell to the standing bid)
- 🔗 **Reliable matching** — joins the two catalogs on the manufacturer **style code** (falls back to an exact title match)
- 🔬 **Deep mode** — pull each product's authoritative order book from both sites instead of the fast search-card prices
- 🩺 **Self-test** mode for uptime monitoring

---

### What you get

Each row is one product, with flat comparison columns (clean CSV/Excel) plus the full per-source objects:

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `styleId`, `brand`, `title`, `releaseDate`, `retailUsd` | product identity |
| `matchedBy` | `style`, `title`, or `null` (found on one site only) |
| `bothSources` | `true` when the product was found on both GOAT and StockX |
| `goatAskUsd`, `goatUrl` | GOAT lowest ask + link |
| `stockxAskUsd`, `stockxBidUsd`, `stockxLastSaleUsd`, `stockxUrl` | StockX lowest ask, highest bid, last sale + link |
| `cheapestSource` | `goat`, `stockx`, `tie`, or `null` |
| `priceSpreadUsd` | absolute gap between the two lowest asks |
| `arbitrageUsd` | StockX highest bid − cheapest ask (can be negative) |
| `goat` / `stockx` | the full normalized object for each source |

---

### Input

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `mode` | `compare` (default) or `selftest`. |
| `term` | Keyword (`Jordan 4 Bravo`) or a style code (`FQ8138-600` — the most reliable match). |
| `deep` | Fetch each product's authoritative order book on both sites (slower, priced higher). Default `false`. |
| `onlyMatched` | Emit only products found on **both** sites. Default `false`. |
| `countryCode` / `currencyCode` / `marketName` | Region + currency for prices (default US / USD / US). |
| `maxItems` | Max comparison rows (default 50). |
| `proxyConfiguration` | The full GOAT vs StockX comparison requires a residential proxy. |

#### Example

```json
{ "mode": "compare", "term": "Jordan 4 Toro Bravo", "onlyMatched": true }
````

***

### How it works

- **Matching** — both marketplaces key a sneaker on its manufacturer style code (GOAT `sku`, StockX `styleId`); the actor joins on that code (punctuation-stripped), falling back to an exact normalized-title match so it never invents a false pairing.
- **Proxy** — the full GOAT vs StockX comparison requires a residential proxy.

### Pricing

**$0.004 per comparison row** (fast search-card prices), **$0.009 per deep comparison row** (authoritative order book from both sites), **$0 start fee**. Full breakdown in [PRICING.md](./PRICING.md).

### Output

Results go to the dataset with a ready-made **GOAT vs StockX comparison** table view. Export as JSON, CSV, Excel, or via the Apify API. For each marketplace's full unique data (StockX per-size order book + sales history, GOAT per-condition buy-bar), use the standalone **Cheapest StockX Scraper** and **Cheapest GOAT Scraper**.

### Disclaimer

This actor scrapes publicly available information. Use it in compliance with each marketplace's terms and applicable law, and only for data you're permitted to collect.

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

'compare' searches both marketplaces for your term and returns side-by-side price rows. 'selftest' probes both sites for uptime monitoring.

## `term` (type: `string`):

Keyword (e.g. 'Jordan 4 Bravo', 'yeezy slide') or a manufacturer style code (e.g. 'FQ8138-600'). A style code returns the exact product on both sites — the most reliable match.

## `deep` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch each matched product's full detail on both sites for the authoritative lowest ask / highest bid / last sale, instead of the fast search-card prices. Slower and priced higher.

## `onlyMatched` (type: `boolean`):

Emit only products found on BOTH GOAT and StockX (drop single-marketplace rows).

## `countryCode` (type: `string`):

Two-letter country for region-specific prices (default US).

## `currencyCode` (type: `string`):

Currency for StockX prices (default USD).

## `marketName` (type: `string`):

Two-letter market for StockX's order book (default US).

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum comparison rows to return in this run.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

The full GOAT vs StockX comparison requires a residential proxy.

## `debug` (type: `boolean`):

Verbose per-request logging.
