Goo-net Japan Used Cars Scraper

Goo-net Japan Used Cars Scraper

Scrape Goo-net Japan used car listings from any search URL or free-text query, up to a million vehicles per run. Every listing returns the full vehicle details, dealer info, and photos. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

Goo-net is Japan's largest used car marketplace, but manually copying vehicle specs, prices, and dealer details across thousands of listings is slow and error-prone. This Actor reads the public listing feeds directly, so you can pull structured data from any search results page or free-text query without writing a single line of code. It handles pagination, rate-limiting, and data extraction automatically, returning a clean dataset ready for analysis.

Who uses it	What they scrape Goo-net for
Used car exporters	Build an inventory feed of available Japanese vehicles with full specs and dealer contacts for overseas buyers.
Market analysts	Track pricing trends and model availability across the Japanese domestic used car market over time.
Dealerships	Monitor competitor pricing and stock levels for specific makes and models in their region.
Data journalists	Investigate market dynamics, such as how inspection history or repair records affect resale value.

What it does

This Actor collects used car listings from Goo-net Japan by search URL or free-text query and returns each vehicle as a flat row with its price, mileage, year, specs, and dealer information.

• 🔗 Start URL input: Paste any Goo-net search or listing page URL to scrape exactly the results you see in your browser.
• 🔍 Free-text search: Provide a search query for make, model, or keyword, and the Actor finds matching listings across the platform.
• 📊 Structured output: Every car comes back as a flat row with consistent columns for price, mileage, year, engine, transmission, and dealer details.
• 🖼️ Photo URLs included: Direct links to vehicle photos are captured so you can display images in your own application or report.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check that your startUrl or searchQuery is valid and returns listings when you open it in a regular browser. Also confirm that maxItems is set to a number greater than zero. If the search is too narrow, try broadening your query.

The Actor is running but taking a long time.

Large maxItems values mean the Actor must paginate through many pages. This is normal. You can reduce maxItems or narrow your search URL to speed it up.

Some fields are empty in my output.

Not every Goo-net listing includes all details. If a seller did not provide the repair history or certain specs, those fields will be blank. This reflects the data available on the site.

I got blocked or received errors.

The Actor uses proxies and rate limiting, but aggressive scraping can still trigger blocks. Try reducing maxItems, increasing the run timeout, or using a more specific startUrl to reduce the number of pages visited.

Can I scrape listings in English?

Goo-net is a Japanese-language site. The Actor extracts the data as it appears on the page, which is primarily in Japanese. You can use translation tools on your exported dataset afterward.
