🔎 Why scrape Bazos.sk?

Bazos.sk is the unrivaled classifieds marketplace in Slovakia, serving millions of active monthly users. Whether individuals are selling smartphones, vintage furniture, or agricultural machinery, or dealerships are listing used vehicles, Bazos is the primary trading hub for the Slovak secondary market.

Every single listing provides valuable economic signals:

• Real-time transactional pricing in EUR (€) across all 8 Slovak regions (Bratislava, Trnava, Trenčín, Nitra, Žilina, Banská Bystrica, Prešov, Košice).
• Subdomain categorization mapping directly to dedicated industry verticals (auto.bazos.sk, reality.bazos.sk, mobil.bazos.sk, stroje.bazos.sk, etc.).
• Seller demand indicators including visitor view counters and timestamped listing ages.

Without an automated Bazos.sk scraper, monitoring thousands of daily ads requires manual browsing, clicking through 20-ad pagination walls, and copying text into spreadsheets. This scraper eliminates manual work, providing an automated pipeline that feeds clean, structured data into your database, BI dashboard, or arbitrage alert engine.

🚀 Step-by-step implementation guide

Running via Apify Console

1. Navigate to the Bazos.sk Scraper on Apify Store.
2. Click Try for free to create a task in your workspace.
3. In the Search Terms field, input keywords separated by newlines (e.g. iphone 15, macbook m3).
4. Set Max Items to your desired target (e.g. 500). Leave maxPagesPerSearch as 0 for unconstrained crawling.
5. Click Start to run the scraper.
6. Once completed, inspect the Dataset tab and export your records in CSV or JSON.

Running via Apify Python Client

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")

run_input = {
    "searchTerms": ["bmw m3", "audi rs3"],
    "maxItems": 250,
    "maxPagesPerSearch": 0,
    "scrapeDetails": False
}

run = client.actor("haketa/bazos-sk-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch results from dataset
dataset_items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items
for item in dataset_items:
    print(f"[{item.get('category')}] {item.get('title')} -> {item.get('price')} EUR")

Running via Apify JavaScript / Node.js Client

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN',
});

const run = await client.actor('haketa/bazos-sk-scraper').call({
    searchTerms: ['playstation 5'],
    priceMin: 300,
    priceMax: 500,
    maxItems: 100,
    maxPagesPerSearch: 0,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(`Successfully scraped ${items.length} items from Bazos.sk`);

💡 Practical scraping tips

• Deep pagination across large categories: When running broad scans on popular terms (like notebook or bicykel), keep maxPagesPerSearch at 0 and set maxItems to your desired sample size (e.g., 2500). The actor will iterate through results automatically without hitting arbitrary page caps.
• Narrowing down with start URLs: For surgical scraping, visit Bazos in your browser, apply specific location or price dropdowns, and copy the final URL into startUrls. The scraper respects all encoded URL parameters.
• Detail mode cost-efficiency: If you only need price tracking, market averages, and titles, leave scrapeDetails: false. This keeps runtime extremely fast (thousands of items per minute) and minimizes network overhead. Turn on scrapeDetails only when seller names and view metrics are required for your workflow.
• Filtering negotiable listings: Listings without a numeric price (marked as "Dohodou") return price: null while preserving "Dohodou" in priceText. If your workflow requires strict numeric prices, filter for price != null in your downstream processing.
• Combining multiple search keywords: Provide multiple terms in searchTerms array. The scraper runs each search sequentially, deduplicating records across queries so you receive a unified, non-redundant dataset.
• Regional Targeting: Slovak postal codes have a 5-digit format (811 01 for Bratislava Old Town, 040 01 for Košice). Filter by specific districts by combining postal code keywords with target search strings.

🏗️ Architecture & data processing pipeline

The scraper is engineered for high throughput and fault tolerance:

1. Request Orchestration: Resolves keywords and startUrls into optimized HTTP requests using desktop browser TLS fingerprints.
2. Dynamic Offset Traversal: Walks through listing results in offsets of 20 items per page (crz parameter), monitoring page boundaries without synthetic constraints.
3. In-Memory Deduplication Engine: Employs an in-memory hash set of unique listing IDs (pushedIds) to drop duplicate advertisements before enrichment.
4. Detail Worker Pool: If scrapeDetails is enabled, a concurrent worker pool opens individual advertisement pages to scrape seller handles and view counters with automatic jitter.
5. Streaming Dataset Ingestion: Streams validated records straight into the Apify Dataset, ensuring data is saved continuously even during long-running tasks.

❓ Frequently asked questions

How many listings can I scrape in one run?

You can scrape as many listings as Bazos has available for your query—hundreds to thousands of listings. Setting maxPagesPerSearch: 0 ensures pagination continues across all pages until maxItems is satisfied or all listings have been collected.

Can I extract seller phone numbers?

Bazos.sk requires user interaction and SMS verification to reveal seller phone numbers on the public site. Consequently, phone numbers are masked behind verification dialogs. However, seller names, locations, view counts, and direct ad links are reliably collected.

What proxy type should I use?

Standard Apify Datacenter Proxies ({ "useApifyProxy": true }) work reliably and cost fractions of a cent per run. Residential proxies are unnecessary for Bazos.sk.

How frequently should I schedule the scraper?

For high-demand categories like electronics and cars, scheduling every 15–30 minutes helps you capture underpriced deals before other buyers. For general category tracking, daily or weekly runs are standard.

How does the scraper handle negotiable ("Dohodou") prices?

When a seller selects "Dohodou" instead of an integer value, the actor sets price: null while preserving "Dohodou" in the priceText field. This prevents numeric sorting errors while retaining full pricing context.

Can I filter by town or postal code?

Yes! Use Bazos.sk in your browser to enter a postal code (PSČ) and radius, copy the resulting search URL, and paste it into the startUrls input field. The scraper will extract only ads matching your regional criteria.

Does the scraper work for the Czech site (Bazos.cz)?

This actor is specialized for Bazos.sk (Slovakia, EUR currency). For the Czech platform with CZK currency, use our sister actor Bazos.cz Scraper.

Can I export directly to Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes! In the Apify Console Dataset tab, click Export and select XLSX (Excel), CSV, or use the direct Apify Google Sheets integration to push data into any spreadsheet automatically.

Are duplicate listings removed automatically?

Yes. Every listing is indexed by its unique numerical Bazos ID. Even if an ad appears in multiple search results or category intersections, it is stored only once in the dataset.

What happens if a listing has no photos?

The actor sets imageUrl: null and continues extracting all remaining metadata without interruption.
