How the price column is worked out. One search returning 50 sales, one request per search, at each product's published prices. SoldComps.io: A 50-sale search costs 20 + 50 × 1 = 70 credits; Starter: 50,000 credits ÷ 70 = 714 searches for $5, so $7.00 per 1,000 searches; Growth: 300,000 credits ÷ 70 = 4,285 searches for $29, so $6.77 per 1,000 searches; Scale: 850,000 credits ÷ 70 = 12,142 searches for $79, so $6.51 per 1,000 searches; Pay as you go: 50,000 credits ÷ 70 = 714 searches for $6, so $8.40 per 1,000 searches; Fewer sales cost less: a 20-sale search is 40 credits, $4.00 per 1,000 on Starter. CompSniper: Starter: $9 ÷ 2,000 requests × 1,000 = $4.50; Growth: $29 ÷ 10,000 requests × 1,000 = $2.90; Scale: $79 ÷ 50,000 requests × 1,000 = $1.58; 500K: $549 ÷ 500,000 requests × 1,000 = $1.10; credits: $5.00 per 1,000 requests

FAQ
Does CompSniper have more history than SoldComps.io?
Yes. CompSniper documents about 90 days on its main search and up to 3 years (1,095 days) on /v1/research/sold. SoldComps.io covers the last 90 days.
Which is cheaper per search?
CompSniper, by its published prices: $9 for 2,000 requests is $4.50 per 1,000. On SoldComps.io a 50-sale search is 70 credits, $7.00 per 1,000 searches on the $5 plan.
Do both have MCP servers?
Yes. CompSniper's is in the ChatGPT and Claude directories with sign-in, or works with your key in other clients. SoldComps.io has a remote MCP server at https://www.soldcomps.io/mcp that Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor can use with no key; add a Bearer key to bill your own credits.
Which shows the accepted Best Offer price?
CompSniper lists accepted Best Offer prices on every plan. SoldComps.io does not return accepted Best Offer prices: when eBay hides the accepted amount, the sale is flagged (best_offer_price_known: false) and left out of the median rather than counted at the list price.
