🛒 eBay Scraper

🚀 Collect eBay product listings in minutes. Search by keyword, category, or direct URL with condition, price range, and shipping filters. No coding, no API keys, no browser extensions.

🕒 Last updated: 2026-04-23 · 📊 25+ fields per listing · 🔍 Search + URL modes · 💰 Price and condition filters · 🚫 No auth required

The eBay Scraper collects product listing data from eBay.com, returning 25+ fields per item: title, price, currency, condition, seller name, feedback score, shipping cost, listing type (auction, Buy It Now, Best Offer), images, category, and item ID. Each run supports up to 1,000,000 items on a paid plan.

The Actor supports two input modes: direct listing/search/category URLs and search-filter mode. You can combine keyword search with category ID, condition (New, Used, Refurbished), price range, free-shipping toggle, and sort order (best match, price, newly listed, ending soonest). Deduplication is automatic, so re-runs on overlapping queries don't produce duplicate rows.

📋 What the eBay Scraper does

Two input modes, combinable in a single run:

• 🔗 URL mode. Paste direct listing URLs (ebay.com/itm/123456789), search URLs, or category page URLs. Filters embedded in the URL are respected automatically.
• 🔍 Search filter mode. Enter a keyword (e.g. "laptop"), then apply category, condition, price range, free-shipping, and sort filters from the input form.

Each listing record includes item ID, title, price, currency, condition, seller username, seller feedback score and percentage, shipping cost, listing type flags (auction, Buy It Now, Best Offer), bid count, category name and ID, image URLs, item URL, and scraped timestamp.

💡 Why it matters: manually tracking competitor pricing and product availability across eBay burns hours every week. This Actor collects structured listing data on demand, ready for CSV export, price-tracking databases, or BI dashboards.

⚙️ Input

Example: search for new laptops under $2,000 with free shipping.

{
"searchQuery":"laptop",
"condition":"New",
"minPrice":500,
"maxPrice":2000,
"freeShippingOnly":true,
"maxItems":50
}

Example: scrape a specific eBay search URL.

{
"startUrls":["https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=laptop"],
"maxItems":100
}

⚠️ Good to Know: you can apply advanced eBay search filters directly on eBay's website (condition, price, category, etc.), then copy the resulting URL and paste it into startUrls. The Actor extracts all filter parameters from the URL automatically.

📊 Output

Each listing record contains 25+ fields. Download the dataset as CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

🧩 How does it work?

Configure your search keyword, filters, or paste eBay URLs in the input form, click Start, and the Actor collects listing data from eBay's pages, applies your filters, and returns one structured record per listing. No browser automation setup on your end.

📏 How accurate is the data?

The data is collected from eBay's listing pages. Prices, bids, and availability reflect the state at the time of the run. For auctions, bid counts and current price update in real time on eBay, so a snapshot captures the moment the Actor visits the page.

🔗 Can I scrape from any eBay domain?

The Actor is optimized for eBay.com (US). Other eBay domains (ebay.co.uk, ebay.de) may work via direct URLs but are not officially supported.

⏰ Can I schedule regular runs?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules to run this Actor on any cron interval (hourly, daily, weekly) and keep your pricing database in sync.

🔄 Does it handle duplicate items?

Yes. The Actor automatically deduplicates items by eBay item ID. Re-runs on overlapping queries don't produce duplicate rows in the dataset.

⚖️ Is this data legal to use?

This Actor collects publicly listed product data from eBay.com. Review eBay's terms of service for your specific downstream use case, especially for commercial republication of listing content.

💼 Can I use this data commercially?

Yes, for analytics, research, pricing intelligence, and internal dashboards. For republication of eBay listing content (images, descriptions), review eBay's terms of service.

💳 Do I need a paid Apify plan to use this Actor?

No. The free Apify plan is enough for testing and small runs (up to 100 items per run). A paid plan lifts the limit and gives you scheduling, higher concurrency, and larger datasets.

🔁 What happens if a run fails or gets interrupted?

Apify automatically retries transient errors. If a run still fails, you can inspect the log in the Runs tab, fix the input, and re-run. Partial datasets from failed runs are preserved.
