Can I tell which marketplace a record came from?

Yes — the source listing URL identifies it, and you can carry a source field through your own pipeline.

Does this cover physical retail?

Coverage is limited to the marketplaces each actor targets; traditional retail chains without public inventory pages are not included.

How should I handle duplicate items?

Deduplicate on title plus price band, and keep the URL so a human can break ties.

Japan Secondhand Market Data

Japan's secondhand market is not one marketplace. Consumer C2C traffic sits on one platform, specialist collectibles on dedicated floors, and used vehicles on a dealer inventory network — and each publishes a different slice of the truth.

Treating them as one dataset makes the structure visible: where supply is concentrated, which categories trade on auctions rather than fixed prices, and how quickly listings turn over in each.

What you get

`item_name`	Listing title as published.
`current_price_jpy`	Price in yen.
`condition`	Source-declared condition.
`item_url`	Listing URL, which also identifies the source marketplace.
`sold_at`	End timestamp for auction records.

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

Map which marketplaces dominate a given category.
Decide whether a category is better sourced via auctions or fixed-price listings.
Build a turnover estimate from how quickly listings disappear between runs.

How a run works

Starting a run: pick the actor for your marketplace from the publisher page, then start it from the Apify console or the API. Billing is per result returned (roughly $0.002 per item), so a scoped search stays cheap.
