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. sold-comps.com: 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; high-volume plans as listed: $1.29 at 100,000 down to $0.499 at 2,000,000; credits: $3 per 1,000 requests

FAQ
Is SoldComps.io the same as sold-comps.com?
No. SoldComps.io (soldcomps.io) and sold-comps.com are separate companies with separate APIs, keys and accounts. A key from one doesn't work on the other.
Which is cheaper per search?
sold-comps.com, by its published prices: $9 buys 2,000 requests ($4.50 per 1,000) and each request returns up to 240 sales. On SoldComps.io, a 50-sale search costs 70 credits, which works out to $7.00 per 1,000 searches on the $5 plan.
Which one returns accepted Best Offer prices?
sold-comps.com does, with hydrateBoa=true, for items in eBay's Price Guide. 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.
Does sold-comps.com have an MCP server?
Its docs and changelog, checked on 2026-11-14, don't mention one. 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.
