eBay UK and Germany product data API

ShopAPIS returns structured eBay product data — listing title, price, item condition (new/used/refurbished), item-specifics, seller feedback score, location, shipping and sold-listing price history — from eBay.co.uk and eBay.de as normalized JSON. Because eBay publishes official Browse and Finding APIs, this is the highest value-to-difficulty source in the region: a vast used and new catalog with a strong, durable resale-price signal.

eBay tolerates structured access better than any other large EU marketplace. eBay.co.uk draws ~91M web visits/mo (~200M including app, $11.5B net sales 2025); eBay.de draws ~73M visits/mo (€8.7B GMV est 2024) (Semrush ; Statista ).

Why eBay data is valuable and accessible

eBay is the one Western European marketplace with a genuinely public product API. The eBay Browse API  and Finding API expose live listings — title, price, condition, item-specifics, seller feedback percentage, location and shipping — and crucially the sold-listing history (Terapeak-style), which is the single best signal for what a used or new item actually transacts at. Anti-bot difficulty is medium-high rather than severe; eBay tolerates structured access where Amazon does not. Because eBay carries both auction and fixed-price listings, new and used condition, and individual and business sellers side by side, the same model can show a wide price band — and the sold history is what tells you where in that band items actually clear. ShopAPIS normalizes the official API output (and fills gaps the API does not expose) into the same product schema you get for every other marketplace, EAN-keyed so used eBay prices join directly to new prices on Amazon and the cross-merchant arrays on Idealo.
