Resale & secondhand marketplace research

Search listings, sellers, and prices across seven C2C resale, streetwear, and handmade marketplaces as normalized JSON from the Crawlora API — no scraping app storefronts.

When to use this skill

• "Find for sale on " / compare listings.
• "What's this seller's/shop's closet/storefront like?"
• "What's the resale price for these sneakers?" (StockX)
• "Find handmade/vintage " (Etsy).
• "What's live right now?" (Whatnot livestream shopping).

Setup (one-time)

• Get a free Crawlora API key (2,000 credits/mo, no card) at https://crawlora.net.
• export CRAWLORA_API_KEY=sk_your_key_here
• All requests: x-api-key: $CRAWLORA_API_KEY against https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1. Missing/invalid key → 401.

How it works

1. Poshmark — /poshmark/search (query) to find listings; /poshmark/listing/{id} for detail; /poshmark/closet/{username} for a seller's storefront; /poshmark/brand/{name} / /poshmark/category/{path} to browse.
2. Etsy — /etsy/search (q) for listings; /etsy/listing/{id} (+ /reviews) for detail; /etsy/shop/search / /etsy/shop/{id} (+ /listings, /reviews) for a shop's storefront.
3. Vinted — /vinted/catalog (search_text) for listings; /vinted/item/{id} for detail; /vinted/member/{id} for a seller; /vinted/brand//vinted/category to filter by brand/category id (resolve ids via /vinted/brands//vinted/categories).
4. StockX — /stockx/search requires category (e.g. sneakers, apparel, collectibles; query is the optional keyword within it) to find a slug, then /stockx/product/{slug} for market data; /stockx/releases for upcoming drops.
5. Mercari — /mercari/search (query) for listings; /mercari/item/{id} for detail; /mercari/autocomplete for query suggestions.
6. Depop — /depop/search (query, plus filters like brand_ids, condition, price_min/price_max) for listings; /depop/item/{slug} for detail; /depop/shop/{username} for a seller's storefront.
7. Whatnot — /whatnot/browse requires category to list live/ upcoming shows; /whatnot/live/{id} for one livestream's detail.

Endpoint reference

See reference/endpoints.md for every Poshmark, Etsy, Vinted, StockX, Mercari, Depop, and Whatnot endpoint this skill uses.

Examples

• Cross-platform price compare: search the same item on Poshmark, Depop, Vinted, and Mercari, then diff asking prices.
• Sneaker resale check: /stockx/search category=sneakers query="..." → /stockx/product/{slug} for current market price vs. retail.
• Seller vetting: /poshmark/closet/{username} or /depop/shop/{username} before buying, to check listing count and activity.
• Handmade sourcing: /etsy/search for a category, then /etsy/shop/{id}/reviews on top shops before ordering a custom piece.

Notes & limits

• Credits / pay-on-success: billed only on 2xx; free tier 2,000 credits/mo. Key at https://crawlora.net.
• Public data only — public listing/storefront pages; no purchases or offers are made.
• Security: key lives in CRAWLORA_API_KEY only — never hardcode, query-param, or commit it.
• StockX and Whatnot require a category on their search/browse endpoints — check reference/endpoints.md for accepted values before calling.
• Vinted brand/category filters need numeric ids — resolve via /vinted/brands//vinted/categories first if you only have a name.
