On 8 and 10 November 2026, we sent 3 providers the same list of 20 searches. We haven't benchmarked 2 other eBay sold listings API providers yet: - [SoldComps](https://datacircle.dev/ebay-sold-listings-apis/soldcomps/179-monthly-150000-requests-month-post-api-bulk-search) - [Soldgraph](https://datacircle.dev/ebay-sold-listings-apis/soldgraph/149-monthly-business-get-v1-ebay-sold) ([alternatives](https://datacircle.dev/soldgraph-alternatives)) The Accuracy score on eBay sold listings APIs: This score out of 100 shows how complete a provider's answer is on each search. We send each call the words of a search, as a buyer types them on ebay.com. We have no copy of eBay's sold listings to check an answer against. We compare the answers of four calls instead: two from CompsAPI, one from Trawl and one from CompSniper. For each search, we count the parts in the answer, such as the sold listings and each listing's price. We count a part on a search if any call's answer had that part. On each search, we divide the parts a call gave by the parts in all four answers together. For the sold listings part, we count the listings in the answer. We divide the call's listing count by the largest listing count of the four answers on that search. We count no more than 240 listings, the most one call of CompsAPI returns. A sold listing also has parts, such as the price. For each part, we count the share of a call's listings that have the part. The two calls of CompsAPI may send stored answers up to 15 minutes old. Trawl also sends stored answers. CompSniper is the live call: CompSniper reads eBay's sold history at the time of the call. We score a stored answer the same way as a fresh answer. We average the results over all searches. Every search counts the same. A call scores 0 on a search when the call found no sold listing. We lower the score when we test the call on fewer searches than the benchmark has. ## eBay sold listings API calls by name ### eBay sold listings API batch and bulk calls 1 eBay sold listings API provider has a call named for batches or bulk: - [SoldComps: Bulk keyword search (SSE)](https://datacircle.dev/ebay-sold-listings-apis/soldcomps/179-monthly-150000-requests-month-post-api-bulk-search) ## eBay sold listings API comparison: how we tested each provider, and what each one costs ### [Trawl](https://datacircle.dev/ebay-sold-listings-apis/trawl/250-monthly), #1 of 3 We tested Trawl on 10 November 2026 with all 20 searches.
