Why scrape auction results.
Value pieces on real prices
Price a piece from what similar lots actually sold for, not from asking prices.
See what beats its estimate
Spot the makers and pieces that sell above estimate, and the ones that go unsold.
Follow every house at once
Keep the results of every auction house you watch in one spreadsheet.
Build a price history
Add each sale as it closes and see how prices move over the years.
Keep your auction records complete.
Every page, not just the first.
Follow next-page links and infinite scroll to scrape every page of results.
Learn moreScrape on a schedule.
Run every few minutes, daily or only on the days you choose.
Learn moreSkip duplicates automatically.
Run it again and only new listings are added, with nothing saved twice.
Learn moreAdd a column with AI.

Rows go straight to Google Sheets, Airtable, Zapier, a webhook or the API.
Scrape auction results in five steps.
- 1
Pick the sales to follow
Open the past results of each auction house or bidding platform you track.
- 2
Choose the lot details
In the Chrome extension or the dashboard, open one sale and select a lot number, title, estimate and sold price.
- 3
Collect every lot
Turn on pagination and Simplescraper follows the sale page by page until every lot is in.
- 4
Add every sale
Paste the links of all the sales you follow and one run collects their lots.
- 5
Keep your results current
Schedule a weekly run with new rows only, so each closing sale adds its lots to your spreadsheet.
Choose how you get your auction results.

Get in touchFAQ
Which auction sites does it work on?
Any auction house or bidding platform that shows its lots and results on a public page, such as a sale catalogue or a past-results archive.
Can I collect results from several auction houses?
Yes. Build one recipe per house, add the links of the sales you follow, and send every recipe to the same spreadsheet.
Can I get the full description of each lot?
Yes. Add the lot links to a second recipe and it reads the description, dimensions, provenance or condition from each lot page.
Can I collect only the newest results?
Yes. Schedule the recipe and turn on new rows only. Each run adds the lots from sales that closed since the last one.
Do I need to write code or selectors?
No. Select one lot and Simplescraper finds every other lot in the sale and the same details for each.
Can I see sold prices that a site shows only to members?
Only through your own account. Sign in to the site in Chrome and scrape with the Chrome extension, which reads the results your account can see. Simplescraper never signs in for you.
