How it works
The scraper extracts data from two sections of The Market website:
- Live auctions — scrapes
/auctions/livefor currently active lots (single page) - Completed results — paginates through
/auctions/resultsfor historical auction outcomes
Both sections are parsed from rendered HTML using listing card elements. Year filtering and make filtering are applied client-side.
Use cases
- Bid monitoring — Track live auctions and bidding activity in real time
- Price discovery — Compare online auction prices vs. traditional live auctions
- Market timing — Identify buying opportunities in weekly timed sales
- Reserve analysis — Monitor reserve-met rates across different segments
Cost & performance
- Speed: ~20 listings per minute
- Proxy: Datacenter proxy included (no extra cost for most runs)
Integration
Export data as JSON, CSV, or Excel. Connect to Google Sheets, Slack, email, or 1,500+ apps via Apify integrations.
Schedule runs weekly to track each new auction cycle.
