Scrape 100 most recent listings (live + sold):
{ "maxItems": 100, "filterType": "All" }
Scrape the last 500 sold lots for realized-price research:
{ "maxItems": 500, "filterType": "Sold" }

{ "maxItems": 200, "startPage": 50 }
Scale
ComicConnect's /browse catalogue contains approximately 116,000+ lots across ~2,900 pages (40 items/page). Pagination is handled automatically — set maxItems to control depth.
Notes
- Prices for open auctions reflect the initial starting bid (typically $1) — final hammer prices are updated via WebSocket during live auctions
- Sold realized prices are fully static in HTML and reliably captured
- Stable access even on large sweeps
