Stay Anonymous While Crawling eBay
eBay invests into protection systems that limit third-party scrapers from accessing eBay data. The key to solving this problem is staying anonymous – and Infatica Scraper API’s proxy network is perfect for that. Avoid IP address bans, request blocks, and CAPTCHAs during scraping eBay.
Solution for Your Data Collection Needs
Scrape eBay with ease
Each web scraper relies on the website’s HTML layout to remain unchanged – this way, the bot knows where, say, product URLs can be accessed. However, eBay is always changing its site structure, rendering third-party scraping solutions obsolete. To keep your web scraping pipeline operational, you’ll need to fix these errors manually.
Infatica Scraper API lets you focus on more interesting stuff – and we’ll handle these errors, keeping our tool up-to-date with eBay’s page source. With Infatica Scraper API, each data point is collected reliably!
No CAPCTHAs – only data
Data from eBay isn’t that easy to get to: Tech companies use DDoS protection systems like Cloudflare to significantly limit automated access. This is a major problem for all third-party web scrapers: Upon detection, their IP addresses and requests are banned, which breaks the entire data collection pipeline.
With Infatica Scraper API, you can reliably avoid detection and CAPTCHAs: Our tool uses Infatica’s own residential proxy network, which provides residential IP addresses. This way, eBay’s anti-scraping systems see your bot as a real user from the country of your choice.
Made for home and power users
There are all sorts of eBay scrapers: browser extensions, standalone apps, software libraries, and so on. These tools differ by factors like price, complexity, functionality, etc. – and here’s the important question: How to find the right tool for extracting data?
Infatica Scraper API is designed to be the best fit for a company of any size: Whether your project is small- or large-scale, you can use our tool to extract data from eBay’s web pages. Just input the target URL to download the scraped results and save them in JSON format or Excel format.
What Customers Say about us
“Excellent service and customer care! For the first time, I bought a proxy on Infatica last year. I immediately bribed the responsiveness of the support, they helped me choose the tariff I needed for my purposes, and they actively answered all the questions later. There are no complaints about the proxies themselves; everything suits me)”

Longer answer: See the details in our overview of web scraping legality.
Shorter answer: Generally, U.S. courts agree that data collection is legal if said data isn’t simply reposted to another platform without seeing a meaningful change. If you want to scrape data from eBay, make sure that the collected information is used to generate new value for the end user (e.g. via a price aggregation platform.)
