🐟 Goofish Sellers & Reviews Scraper: 闲鱼 Xianyu Shop Profiles, Inventory & Feedback (Idlefish)

---

---

📖 Overview

Goofish (闲鱼 / Xianyu / Idle Fish) is Alibaba's flagship C2C second-hand trading ecosystem with over 500 million registered users. It represents the world's most dynamic marketplace for authentic pre-owned luxury, electronics, vintage fashion, anime figures, and rare collectibles.

However, gathering seller background intelligence, inventory history, and buyer feedback on Goofish is guarded by stringent anti-scraping barriers:

• Mandatory Chinese mobile (+86) SMS verification and QR code login screens.
• Dynamic Alibaba mtop encryption handshakes (_m_h5_tk, tfstk).
• Deeply nested mobile data structures that break typical spreadsheet exports.

Goofish Sellers & Reviews Scraper by UnitBytes solves these challenges permanently. Using an ultra-fast hybrid stealth engine with automated session reuse, this Actor extracts rich merchant profiles, active & historical listings, and buyer feedback at scale — with zero login, zero cookies, and zero server compute fees ($0.00 compute).

🎯 Popular Use Cases

1. Cross-Border Supplier & Seller Due Diligence

Before wiring funds or purchasing high-ticket items through shopping agents (Superbuy, Pandabuy, Sugargoo, CSSBuy, Mulebuy), audit the seller's complete reputation:

• Verify Zhima Credit ratings (芝麻信用等级).
• Check real-name and real-person identity badges.
• Isolate negative buyer feedback (reviewFilter: "negative_only") to identify fake goods, Bait-and-Switch tactics, or poor communication.

2. E-Commerce & Dropshipping Catalog Sourcing

Discover high-volume, reliable Chinese merchants. Export their complete active product listings (statusFilter: "onsale"), along with high-definition original product photos, descriptions, and structured specifications.

3. Competitor Tracking & Inventory Turnover Velocity

Track how fast items sell by comparing active listings against sold items (statusFilter: "sold"). Monitor historical selling prices, discount frequencies, and buyer review volume over time.

4. Brand Protection & Counterfeit Intelligence

Monitor unauthorized liquidations, grey-market imports, and replica sellers. Extract high-resolution buyer unboxing photos (reviewImages) to build verified evidence of intellectual property violations.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a Chinese mobile number (+86) or Goofish account?

No. The scraper operates entirely autonomously in guest mode with automated session harvesting. No login, SMS codes, or personal account credentials are required.

Can I paste an item link instead of a seller profile?

Yes. The scraper features automatic item resolution. Paste any Goofish item link (e.g. https://www.goofish.com/item?id=...), and the actor will identify the seller and scrape their complete profile, inventory, and reviews.

What is the difference between summary and full detail level?

• summary: Extremely fast and cost-efficient. Fetches product titles, prices, primary images, locations, and status tags.
• full: Performs deep product inspection. Extracts the complete description text, exact physical condition grade, and structured specification attributes (specs).

How do I export to Excel or Google Sheets without broken columns?

Set "outputFormat": "tabular". This produces flat, spreadsheet-ready rows where each listing or review is its own record with seller metadata attached.
