Is there a way to download a sellers listing URLs?

As per the title, is there a way to download or otherwise get an entire set of URLs for a sellers items? Obviously not your own, but is there a way to say download SELLERX entire set of listings as perhaps a CSV file?

Why on earth would you want to do that in the first place?

 

I really can't think of a legitimate reason for wanting to do so.

If you wanted to see what your competitors were selling and analyse the data for points that you can improve your own inventory. 

The research tool is good but it doesn't have enough granularity to show where decent entry points are. 

ie - your competitor - SellerX lists 1000 items, they sell 100 regularly. Of that 100, 10 do a good amount every day - say 30 or so and that you can find from the research tool but some of those 100 might sell 8 or 9 sales every day, which would be hidden by the top 10. 

The research tool doesn't let you see what the competition are selling regularly. It's only eBay wide, not down to a single seller or a selection of sellers.

The sourcing insights tool is broken more often than not repeatedly saying "Our server failed to respond to your query. Please try again in a few seconds."

Ok, the only way that I'm aware of that you could possibly do this, is by using a web crawler.

But unless you know what your doing, your going to have to pay someone to create something for you.

I'm not aware of any specific software that will do this, though it is of course possible that someone somewhere has done it.

I agree a web crawler would work.

 

look up screaming frog. Fairly certain from memory you could get that to function by it looking for certain text in a certain element of the page (eg the seller name) and return the relevant URLs
