🐛 Troubleshooting

No results returned

• Check keyword spelling and try broader terms (e.g. laptop instead of an exact model)
• Remove or widen filters (brand, min/max price, Top-Rated)
• Verify any PLP URLs open correctly in a browser

Specifications are missing

• Switch scrapeMode to detail — full spec tables, descriptions, and galleries are only extracted in detail mode

Fewer products than expected

• FREE tier is capped at 25 products per run — upgrade to PAID for unlimited results
• Some categories or filtered searches simply contain fewer products

Prices look different from what I expect

• Results reflect the US storefront (bestbuy.com) in USD; regional pricing may differ from other markets

⚖️ Is it legal to scrape data?

Our actors are ethical and do not extract any private user data, such as email addresses, gender, or location. They only extract what is publicly available. We therefore believe that our actors, when used for ethical purposes by Apify users, are safe.

However, you should be aware that your results could contain personal data (for example, seller or reviewer names). Personal data is protected by the GDPR in the European Union and by other regulations around the world. You should not scrape personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so. If you're unsure whether your reason is legitimate, consult your lawyers.

You can also read Apify's blog post on the legality of web scraping.
