"title":"Super Mario Bros 3",
"platform":"NES",
"loosePrice":17.84,
"completePrice":64.72,
"newPrice":651.37,
"gradedPrice":null,
"imageUrl":"https://storage.googleapis.com/images.pricecharting.com/.../240.jpg",
"productUrl":"https://www.pricecharting.com/game/nes/super-mario-bros-3",
"searchQuery":"super mario bros",
"scrapedAt":"2026-04-25T12:00:00.000Z"
}

Detail mode (scrapeDetails: true)

Richer data with price history from each product page:

{
"title":"Super Mario Bros",
"platform":"NES",
"category":"video-games",
"productId":"9889",
"asin":"B00004SVV7",
"epid":"4444",

Use Cases

• Price tracking — monitor collectible values over time
• Arbitrage — compare PriceCharting prices against eBay, Mercari, etc.
• Collection valuation — calculate total collection worth across platforms
• Market research — analyze price trends for specific game consoles or card sets
• Investment analysis — identify appreciating collectibles using historical chart data
• Inventory pricing — auto-price game store or card shop inventory

How It Works

1. Searches PriceCharting for each query (up to 100 results per search)
2. In search-only mode, extracts loose/CIB/new prices directly from search results
3. In detail mode, visits each product page to extract all 6 price conditions plus full historical VGPC chart data
4. Historical prices are parsed from the embedded VGPC.chart_data JavaScript object containing timestamped price arrays

Notes

• PriceCharting returns up to 100 results per search query
• Historical prices are in USD. Zero-value entries are filtered out.
• Price history spans from ~2007 to present depending on the product
• Chart data prices are stored in cents and converted to dollars
• No proxies typically needed — PriceCharting has no anti-bot protection
