Game Buylist Price Scraper
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I need a clean, automated scrape of every buy-list price shown on https://buylist.catrp.com/. The site groups offers by console and, in many cases, hides multiple condition prices in a drop-down (Loose, No Manual, CIB, New). I want every one of those figures captured.
Scope
• Cover every console category that appears on the site—no exclusions.
• Pull data for every game title listed under each console.
• Extract every available condition price, even when it shows as “N/A”.
Output format
Create a single Excel file that contains one worksheet for each console category. Across all sheets use identical headers in this order:
Category | Title | Loose | No Manual | CIB | New
An example row should look like:
Xbox | Spiderman 2 | N/A | 7.00 | 9.00 | 15.00
Acceptance criteria
• All consoles present on the website have their own sheet.
• Every game title that appears online is present in its console sheet.
• Each condition column accurately reflects the site price or “N/A” when no value is shown.
• Sheets are named exactly as the console categories appear on the site.
Please deliver the finished Excel file and, if you build a script, feel free to include it so I can re-run the scrape in the future.
