Suruga-ya Scraper — Japanese Collectibles Price Data (駿河屋)

Get live prices from Suruga-ya (suruga-ya.jp), Japan's biggest second-hand store for anime figures, Pokémon & trading cards, video games, CDs, manga, and collectibles — as clean, normalized JSON.

If you source from Japan and resell on eBay, TCGPlayer, or Amazon, this Actor gives you the Japanese supply-side price for any keyword in seconds: new & used prices in JPY (tax included), stock status, marketplace offers, and — unique to this Actor — structured edition flags parsed from Japanese listing titles.

Works as a Suruga-ya API: run it from the Apify console, via REST API, on a schedule, or from an AI agent through MCP.

Why this Actor (and not a generic scraper)

Suruga-ya listings encode the details that decide resale value in Japanese, inside the title: 帯付き (obi strip included), 未開封 (factory sealed), 初回限定盤 (first-press limited), 駿河屋限定 (Suruga-ya exclusive), ポケモンセンター限定 (Pokémon Center exclusive), 箱説なし (no box/manual)…

Generic scrapers hand you a Japanese string. This Actor reads it for you:

"edition_flags": {
  "obi": true,
  "unopened": true,
  "first_press": true,
  "limited_edition": true,
  "surugaya_limited": false,
  "store_exclusive": false,
  "with_bonus": null,
  "junk": false
},
"condition_notes": ["箱説なし"]

A sealed first-press CD with obi and a loose disc are different products with 5–10× price gaps. Filtering on these flags is the difference between profitable sourcing and expensive mistakes.

It also handles every Suruga-ya price situation correctly: time sales (regular vs. discounted price), used price ranges, out-of-stock items, and third-party marketplace (マケプレ) offers.

Input

{
  "keyword": "ポケモンカード 151",
  "category": "toys_hobby",
  "maxResults": 100,
  "inStockOnly": true
}

• keyword — Japanese works best (初音ミク フィギュア), but romaji often matches too (gundam, pokemon).
• category — all, toys_hobby (figures, trading cards, plamo), games, music, video, books, goods_fashion, pc_smartphone, doujin. Advanced: pass a raw categoryCode from any suruga-ya.jp URL.
• inStockOnly — only items buyable right now from Suruga-ya's main store.

Field	Meaning
id	Suruga-ya product code (品番) — stable, use it for monitoring
price_new / price_used	Current buy price in JPY, tax included (integer). price_used is the low end; price_used_max set when a range is shown
price_new_regular / price_used_regular	Pre-discount price during time sales (is_on_time_sale: true)
price_list	Publisher list price (定価) when shown
stock_status	in_stock / out_of_stock / marketplace_only
marketplace	Cheapest third-party (マケプレ) offer {price, item_count} when the main store is sold out
edition_flags	See above. true = stated, false = explicitly negated, null = not mentioned
condition_notes	Raw Japanese condition caveats found in the title (no box, no manual, sun-fading, …)

Recipe: JP↔US price-gap (arbitrage) screening

Combine this Actor with a US-side price Actor (TCGPlayer, PriceCharting, eBay sold listings) to compute the spread in one pipeline:

1. Run this Actor: keyword: "ポケモンカード 151", inStockOnly: true → Japanese supply price.
2. Run your TCGPlayer/PriceCharting Actor for the same set → US market price.
3. Join and filter, e.g. in a spreadsheet or a few lines of code:

const spreadPct = (usPriceUsd * jpyPerUsd - jp.price_used) / jp.price_used * 100;
// keep rows where spreadPct > 40 && jp.stock_status === 'in_stock'
//   && jp.edition_flags.unopened !== false

Typical proxy-buying overhead from Japan (agent fee + domestic + international shipping) is 15–30%, so screen for gaps comfortably above that. edition_flags keeps the comparison apples-to-apples — a sealed Japanese box vs. a sealed US box, not a loose one.

What does it cost?

You pay per result. Examples at $4 per 1,000 results:

Use case	Results	Cost
Spot-check one product line	100	$0.40
Daily in-stock sweep of a category keyword	500/day	$2.00/day
Full sourcing scan across 20 keywords	20 × 300	$2.40

One search page fetch yields up to 24 results, so runs are fast and cheap.

Use with AI agents (MCP)

This Actor works with the Apify MCP server, so Claude, or any MCP-capable agent, can call it as a tool: "Check what a sealed first-press of X costs at Suruga-ya right now." The structured output (integer yen, booleans) is designed to be consumed by agents without prompt gymnastics.

Fair use & legality

• Scrapes only public product data (prices, stock, titles). No personal data, no login, no paywalled content.
• Polite by default: sequential fetching with a configurable delay (default 3 s between pages).
• You are responsible for complying with suruga-ya.jp's terms and your local laws when using the data.

Support

Issues and feature requests are answered quickly — open an issue on the Actor's Issues tab. Planned next: product-code (品番) batch lookup for price/stock monitoring, and product-URL input.
