We currently scrape data from eBay in order to build long term pricing model and to better understand the used side of our industry. That said, we have been paying for a service to this as we did not have the time to properly develop a python program (that is what we'd prefer this written in) that can do it for us. We are simply using pagnation to scrape the data from individual product pages, images included (Name of Post/Title, User who Listed Item, Price, Shipping Information, General Details Box and then the images - that is the data that we are collecting.) In this pagnation we have roughly 5 major search tearms, roughly 40 in all, but as we are only seeking items over $2500 and below $1,000,000 (the high number is vastly over kill), but it will reduce the pages needing to be scraped with such a high minimum. We currently have a php/mysql GUI which accepts .xlsx files via an upload function and then allows us to filter the data and display it. This scraper should collect the information above and using a chrone job/bat of some sort auto-upload it's data to our MySQL database on a daily basis. Please contact me now as I am looking to hire a partner to complete this task today - I know there are many skilled programmer who can tweak existing scrappers and do this rather quickly and might even have better ideas than those we've asked for. So please message me and I can provide you access to our GUI, the current format of the .xlsx files being uploaded as well as explain our current scraping process. I look forward to working with one of you very soon!!

I've used Python for eBay data scraping in a recent project, and am very comfortable with the eBay API. It's not very clear from the job description, so I wanted to clarify: It seems you're scraping data from individual item pages and extracting data manually. If this is the case, I wanted to suggest instead using the eBay API. The eBay API is open for public use to anyone using less than 5000 API calls per day (per call type), and each individual call can be used to retrieve up to 100 search results at a time, which include most of the information you require. You can then use another API call (up to another 5000 per day) to get extra information like shipping info and gallery photos for each individual result. If your requirements fall within the daily API limits, I highly suggest this method for your needs. There is a Python module for accessing the eBay API, and that would greatly simplify the application, allowing me to get this up and running very quickly. My previous experience with the eBay API includes an Android app I've created for automating eBay searches. It is powered by Python using a system very similar to the one I have described here. It is called "eFerret" and can be found on Google Play.

We have performed similar function for client in the past. I am certain we can improve on the concept and make it as simple as possible, by only having to adjust your desired parameters. Once we have seen the existing process and GUI, further discussion can be had about the implementation.
