Automate eBay price tracking with Make × BrowserAct. Collect live product and seller data, compare prices, and get alerts — no coding needed.

The eBay marketplace moves fast. Prices change by the minute, new listings appear every second, and the best deals are often gone before you even refresh the page.

Trying to keep up manually isn’t just time‑consuming — it’s nearly impossible to stay accurate.

For sellers, buyers, and analysts, real‑time visibility makes the difference between staying competitive and getting left behind.

The Make × BrowserAct eBay Targeted Product Price Scraper is designed to take that task off your hands.

Key Features of eBay Targeted Product Price Scraper

Smart Search & Rating Filters

Simply enter a product name (e.g., “Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra”) and set your minimum rating (e.g., 4 stars or higher). The eCommerce automation visits eBay via BrowserAct, triggers the search bar, and scrolls through pagination to collect all top listings.

Accurate Data Extraction

The eBay scraper automatically extracts and organizes key values:

• Product name
• Min and max price (or one value if fixed)
• Seller name — parsed directly from eBay’s seller detail pattern like ["phonehavens" "99.3%" "positive" "(1.1K)"]. Clean, structured data means no more copying from dozens of listings.

Automated Price Comparison

Once data is captured, Make checks whether previous records exist.

• If yes, it runs a comparison mode to detect any price or rating changes.
• If not, it automatically creates a new entry.
• When changes meet specific criteria (like a price drop or better rating), an alert is sent instantly via email.

Built for Analytics & Reporting

All results are saved as JSON and stored in Google Sheets and Make Data Store, making it easy to sort, visualize, or build custom dashboards. Every run becomes a snapshot in time — perfect for trend monitoring and reporting.

Use Cases — Real Ways to Apply It

Smarter Competitor Price Tracking

If you’re selling on eBay, staying ahead of the competition means knowing where everyone else is pricing — in real time. With this template, you can automatically track competing listings for the same product, log when prices or ratings change, and receive instant alerts when competitors run promotions or discounts. No more manual checking, no more guesswork — just clear, automated market insight that helps you adjust your pricing strategy confidently.

Product Sourcing and Procurement

For buyers and sourcing managers, the scraper serves as a personal purchasing assistant. You can monitor target items — like smartphones, accessories, or refurbished tech — across multiple sellers, automatically highlighting the most reputable and best‑priced options. It helps you identify the right purchase moment, avoid overpriced listings, and quickly compare seller credibility before making a decision.

Market Trend and Pricing Analytics

Analysts and business strategists can use this automation to build a live pricing database. By tracking multiple product categories over time, you can visualize price variations, seasonal demand, and seller dynamics. The structured JSON and Google Sheets outputs make integration with BI dashboards or financial models effortless — turning raw data into actionable insights.

Internal Reporting and Collaboration

Teams that rely on up‑to‑date data — marketing, category management, finance — often struggle to stay aligned. By connecting the scraper with Google Sheets or other reporting tools, every department can access the same verified product data in one place. Whether you’re preparing a weekly report or syncing data with your internal dashboard, everyone stays on the same page — literally.
