FAQ

How fast is a default run? About 20–30 seconds.

Do I pay for failed pages? No – only for deals saved to the dataset.

How fresh is the data? Live – each run reads the boards at that moment. Schedule it (e.g. every 15 minutes) for a continuous feed; use sinceHours to avoid old posts.

Do you collect usernames or comments? No. Author names/IDs, post bodies and comment texts are never collected – only deal metadata and aggregate counts.

Why not Quasarzone or FMKorea? FMKorea's robots.txt disallows its hot-deal board for general crawlers, and Quasarzone's robots.txt cannot be read (bot challenge), so they are intentionally excluded.

Ruliweb times out? Ruliweb frequently does not answer requests from servers outside Korea, which is where Apify runs. It is therefore not in the default sources; failed Ruliweb pages are skipped quickly and don't affect the other sources.

Ppomppu returns at most ~15 deals? Yes – the official RSS feed carries the latest posts only. Run more often to capture everything.

Legal note

This Actor reads only publicly accessible list pages, RSS feeds and post pages that the sites' robots.txt files allow, at a polite rate. It stores deal metadata (titles, prices, shop links, counts) and no personal data (no author names, IDs, bodies or comments). Post titles are user-written content; use the data for alerts and analysis and link back to the original post rather than republishing it wholesale. You are responsible for complying with each site's terms and applicable law.
