🐞 Troubleshooting

No results returned

• Check that your keywords match real Micro Center products
• Try a broader search term or a different sort order

Missing specifications, rating, or store-by-store stock

• Those fields only appear in Detail mode — switch scrapeMode to detail

Wrong prices or stock

• Prices and inventory are store-specific — set the correct storeId for your target store

Fewer results than expected on the free tier

• The FREE tier is capped at 25 products per run — upgrade to PAID for unlimited results

However, you should be aware that your results could contain personal data. 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.
