Sports-card and memorabilia auction pricing monitoring
Use Pristine Auction endpoints to turn sports-card and memorabilia auction pricing monitoring into repeatable API requests with documented inputs and JSON responses.
Pristine Auction runs weekly sports-card and memorabilia auctions at pristineauction.com. Crawlora reads its public inventory directly: the whole value space for category, auction type, sort, and status, keyword or category search across the current auction, and one lot's full detail -- price, auction end time, sport/collectible category, no-reserve flag, and view/watch/bid counts. Credential-free.
Extract Pristine Auction's live lot search, full lot detail, and the platform's own search enum values as structured JSON.

Managed execution
Every figure below is read from the live Pristine Auction endpoint catalog — 3 endpoints, 13 documented request parameters, and 3 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
3 documented Pristine Auction endpoints, grouped into 3 request families — Categories, Lot and Search.
13 request parameters are documented across those Pristine Auction endpoints, 4 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
3 of the 3 Pristine Auction endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 3 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Pristine Auction endpoints document their error responses (400, 404, 500 and 503) alongside the success schema, so a block, a rate limit, or a missing record comes back as a typed error rather than silently empty data.
3 hosted MCP tools back the Pristine Auction endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.
Coverage map
These cards are generated from the active endpoint catalog, so the landing page reflects the same API surface used by Docs and Playground.

/pristine-auction/search
Endpoint catalog
/pristine-auction/searchBrowses or searches pristineauction.com's current sports card and memorabilia auction lots. term or category is required, matching pristineauction.com's own search form. All enum values (category, auction_type, sort, status) come from pristine-auction-categories. status=completed browses ended/sold lots (a prices-realized view); the default (all statuses) mirrors the site's own default. Every filter is optional and combines with AND semantics. Credential-free public data -- see the endpoint markdown for the transport used.
Response notes
- `total_pages` is computed as `ceil(total / per_page)`. - Every filter is optional and combines with AND semantics. - `results[].ends_at` is the auction's end time, RFC 3339, read from the card's own countdown timestamp. - `results[].high_bid` is the lot's current bid price in USD (not the realized/sold price, even for a `status=completed` lot — use `pristine-auction-lot-detail`'s `price` field for that). - A syntactically valid search that matches nothing returns a well-formed empty result (`total: 0`, `results: []`), not an error. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "page": 1, "per_page": 30, "total": 258, "total_pages": 9, "results": [ { "lot_number": 13154611, "title": "Mickey Mantle 1969 Topps #500 (PSA 8) (MC)", "url": "https://www.pristineauction.com/a13154611", "image_url": "https://images.pristineauction.com/449/4494947/thumb_1789064410-Mickey-Mantle-1969-Topps-500-PSA-8-MC-PristineAuction.com.jpg", "high_bid": 256.66, "currency": "USD", "no_reserve": true, "auction_type": "CARD AUCTION", "auction_type_url": "https://www.pristineauction.com/auction/type/sports-cards", "ends_at": "2026-09-21T03:00:00Z" } ] } } ```
MCP tool pristine_auction_search
/pristine-auction/lot/{lot_number}Returns one pristineauction.com lot's full detail: title, description, image gallery, price (current high bid, or realized/sold price once the auction has ended), auction end time, sport/collectible category, auction type, no-reserve flag, and view/watch/bid counts. lot_number comes from pristine-auction-search's results[].lot_number. Credential-free public data -- see the endpoint markdown for the transport used.
Response notes
- `price` is the lot's current high bid, or its realized/sold price once the auction has ended — pristineauction.com's own product schema uses the same field for both states. - `ends_at` is RFC 3339, as reported by the upstream product schema. - `category` is a sport/collectible category slug, one value from `pristine-auction-categories`' `categories[].slug`. - `images[]` is the lot's full photo gallery (front, back, and any additional angles the seller provided), not just the one thumbnail `pristine-auction-search` returns. - An unknown `lot_number` returns a `404` not-found error. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "lot_number": 13154611, "title": "Mickey Mantle 1969 Topps #500 (PSA 8) (MC)", "description": "Card has been graded PSA 8 (Miscut). Please see photos for more details on the condition of the card. (New York Yankees)", "url": "https://www.pristineauction.com/a13154611", "images": [ "https://images.pristineauction.com/449/4494947/1789064410-Mickey-Mantle-1969-Topps-500-PSA-8-MC-PristineAuction.com.jpg", "https://images.pristineauction.com/449/4494947/1789064411-Mickey-Mantle-1969-Topps-500-PSA-8-MC-PristineAuction.com.jpg" ], "sku": "LOT-13154611", "price": 256.66, "currency": "USD", "availability": "InStock", "ends_at": "2026-09-21T03:00:00-07:00", "category": "trading-cards", "auction_type": "CARD AUCTION", "auction_type_url": "https://www.pristineauction.com/auction/type/sports-cards", "no_reserve": true, "total_views": 144, "total_watching": 19, "total_bids": 4 } } ```
MCP tool pristine_auction_lot
/pristine-auction/categoriesReturns the whole value space for pristine-auction-search's category, auction_type, sort, and status params. categories[] is fetched live (with a current listing count per category, refreshed on every call); auction_types[], sort[], and statuses[] are pristineauction.com's own fixed, small search-form value sets.
Response notes
- `categories[]` is fetched live from pristineauction.com's own category select on every call, so `count` reflects the current live listing count for that category, not a static snapshot. - `auction_types[]`, `sort[]`, and `statuses[]` are pristineauction.com's own fixed, small search-form value sets. - `statuses[].slug` values `future`/`active`/`canceled`/`completed`/ `forfeited` map to `pristine-auction-search`'s own `status` filter. `status=completed` browses ended/sold lots — a prices-realized view. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "categories": [ { "slug": "baseball", "label": "BASEBALL", "count": 8608, "url": "https://www.pristineauction.com/auction/category/baseball" }, { "slug": "trading-cards", "label": "TRADING CARDS", "count": 17836, "url": "https://www.pristineauction.com/auction/category/trading-cards" } ], "auction_types": [ { "slug": "daily" }, { "slug": "classic" }, { "slug": "elite" } ], "sort": [ { "slug": "newly-listed" }, { "slug": "ending-soonest" } ], "statuses": [ { "slug": "active" }, { "slug": "completed" } ] } } ```

How to scrape Pristine Auction
Pristine Auction's own search form expects specific enum values that shift as categories are added. Crawlora's Pristine Auction endpoints return those enum values, keyword/category search results, and one lot's full detail as normalized JSON -- no account.
Call /pristine-auction/categories for the live category list (with a current listing count per category) plus the fixed auction_type, sort, and status enums.
Send a term or category to /pristine-auction/search, with an optional auction_type, status, price range, and sort order; status=completed browses ended/sold lots.
Pass a lot_number from a search result to /pristine-auction/lot/{lot_number} for title, description, image gallery, current or realized price, auction end time, and view/watch/bid counts.
FAQ
Call /pristine-auction/categories for the search enum values, send a term or category to /pristine-auction/search, then pass a result's lot_number to /pristine-auction/lot/{lot_number} for full detail -- all as structured JSON, no account.
Yes -- pass status=completed to /pristine-auction/search to browse ended/sold lots instead of the current live auction.
No -- /pristine-auction/categories reads categories[] live from pristineauction.com's own current listing count per category; auction_type, sort, and status are the site's own fixed, small enums.
Yes -- /pristine-auction/lot/{lot_number} returns a no-reserve flag alongside price, auction end time, and view/watch/bid counts.
Collecting publicly accessible lot, search, and category data is generally permissible if you respect Pristine Auction's terms of use, robots directives, rate limits, and applicable law.
