Overview
B-Stock Amazon Liquidation Auctions Scraper
Scrape B-Stock Amazon liquidation auctions for pallets and truckloads of customer returns, up to a million lots per run. Every lot comes with its bid, MSRP, bid-to-MSRP ratio, cost per unit, condition, seller, and product images. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
B-Stock's Amazon liquidation marketplaces sell returned and overstock merchandise in bulk lots, but the site has no public API and manual browsing is slow. This Actor reads the public auction listings directly from both the US and EU storefronts, filters them by country, currency, condition, offer type, lot size, and shipment type, and returns each match in one fixed schema. It also fetches each auction's detail page for seller, category, lot ID, and up to 50 product images.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check your filters. If you set country to Spain but the EU marketplace has no lots from Spain at the moment, the result will be empty. Try clearing filters or selecting both marketplaces.
Why are some fields empty in the output?
Some fields, like seller or category, come from the detail page. Make sure fetchDetails is enabled. Also, some lots may not have all fields populated on B-Stock.
The run is slow. How can I speed it up?
Disable fetchDetails to skip detail-page requests. This returns only listing-page data and runs much faster.
I only got 10 auctions but I set maxItems to 100.
The Actor stops when it reaches maxItems or when there are no more listings matching your filters. If the marketplace has fewer than 100 matching lots, you will get fewer.
