Japan Market Data › Japan Collectibles Price API

Japan Collectibles Price API

Collectible pricing rewards specificity. A generic 'used figure' price is close to useless, while a price for one character, one scale, one grade and one edition is immediately actionable — and that granularity only comes from listing-level data.

These scrapers return listing-level records across the Japanese collectible floors, so you can slice by series, grade and marketplace instead of relying on an aggregate that averages away the difference.

Field names follow the actor's dataset schema and can differ slightly between actors — check the actor page for the exact input and output schema before wiring it into a pipeline.

Use cases

How a run works

Starting a run: call the Apify API with the actor id fruitful_quintessence~mandarake-auction-scraper, or press Start on the actor page and download the dataset. Check the actor page for its exact input schema — a run is scoped by the search terms you supply, and billing is per result returned (roughly $0.002 per item).

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/fruitful_quintessence~mandarake-auction-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchTerms": ["your", "search", "terms"]}'

FAQ

Which collectible categories are covered?
Figures, manga, trading cards and doujin works are covered across the Mandarake and DLsite scrapers; the publisher page lists each actor.
Can I compare across marketplaces?
Yes — run more than one actor and keep the source URL with each record.
Is grading data standardised?
Grades follow each source's own convention, so treat them as source-published labels rather than a unified scale.
