The connector reads ONLY the public, unauthenticated storefront JSON that every Shopify shop serves to any visitor: /collections/<handle>/products.json?limit=250&page=N for the 18 configured collections (cgc-graded-comics, vintage-comics, comics, ratio-variants, marvel-comics, vintage-spider-man, vintage-x-men, dc-comics … (+10 more, see config.collections)) and /products/<handle>.json for URL lookups (~12.7k products; 3.1k vintage comics, 300 CGC slabs, 400 trading cards). robots.txt (verified 2026-09-08, User-agent *): standard Shopify rules — Disallow /admin, /cart, /checkout(s), /orders, /account, /services, /sf_*, /cart.js, /recommendations/products, /cdn/wpm/*.js and the filter/sort crawl traps (/collections/*sort_by*, /collections/*+*, /collections/*filter*&*filter*); no Crawl-delay for *. The /collections/<handle>/products.json and /products/<handle>.json paths we read carry none of those patterns and are allowed. Sitemap declared at /sitemap.xml (not needed). Access behaviour: plain HTTP 200 JSON with the honest RareIndexBot UA, no anti-bot challenge, no login, no key. Market pinning: Shopify Markets localises products.json prices by the requester IP as soon as an Accept-Language header is present (observed on Markets-enabled shops: a Canadian crawler receives CAD-converted prices with content-language en-CA while the JSON carries no currency field). Every request therefore sends the public localization=CA cookie — the shop's own home market, exactly what a CA visitor gets — so prices are always the declared CAD (verified 2026-09-08: 30.00 vs 43.00 on a Markets shop). Politeness: 1 request per 1.5 s, concurrency 1 per host (connectors/domains.d/g3-shops-na.json), crawlDepth pages per collection per incremental run, backfill bounded by backfillMaxPages. Data: asking prices in CAD (the shop's declared currency) — these are LISTINGS, never sales (§111); one listing per variant (condition/size/edition), variant SKU kept as identifier, out-of-stock variants kept as 'ended' listings, 0.00-priced placeholders dropped. Dates: published_at only; no fetch time is ever used as a sale date. Third-party grades in titles (PSA/BGS/CGC/ICCS/PMG…) are parsed by parseGradeFromTitle; cert numbers are not extracted. Deliberately NOT fetched: cart/checkout/account/customer endpoints, per-product .js barcode enrichment (fetchBarcodes=false: one extra request per product is not worth it for listings), the whole-shop /products.json, and unmapped collections — graphic novels/manga/TPB collections (books, not collectibles), pre-orders, supplies. No personal data is collected; seller = the store itself.",44 "enabled": true,45 "schemaVersion": "1.0",46 "acquisitionMethod": "Shopify storefront products.json",47 "historicalDepth": "none",48 "requires": [],49 "config": {50 "currency": "CAD",51 "market": "CA",52 "seller": "Big B Comics",53 "location": "Hamilton / Barrie / Niagara Falls, ON, Canada",54 "collections": [55 {56 "handle": "cgc-graded-comics",57 "categorySlug": "comics"58 },59 {60 "handle": "vintage-comics",61 "categorySlug": "comics"62 },63 {64 "handle": "comics",65 "categorySlug": "comics"66 },67 {68 "handle": "ratio-variants",69 "categorySlug": "comics"70 },71 {72 "handle": "marvel-comics",73 "categorySlug": "marvel_comics",74 "franchise": "Marvel"75 },76 {77 "handle": "vintage-spider-man",78 "categorySlug": "marvel_comics",79 "franchise": "Marvel"80 },81 {82 "handle": "vintage-x-men",83 "categorySlug": "marvel_comics",84 "franchise": "Marvel"85 },86 {87 "handle": "dc-comics",88 "categorySlug": "dc_comics",89 "franchise": "DC"90 },91 {92 "handle": "vintage-batman",93 "categorySlug": "dc_comics",94 "franchise": "DC"95 },96 {97 "handle": "indie-comics",98 "categorySlug": "independent_comics"99 },100 {101 "handle": "vintage-star-wars",102 "categorySlug": "comics",103 "franchise": "Star Wars"104 },105 {106 "handle": "trading-cards",107 "categorySlug": "non_sport_cards"108 },109 {110 "handle": "pokemon-cards",111 "categorySlug": "pokemon",112 "franchise": "Pokémon"113 },114 {115 "handle": "funko-pops",116 "categorySlug": "funko",117 "brand": "Funko"118 },119 {120 "handle": "mcfarlane-toys",121 "categorySlug": "action_figures",122 "brand": "McFarlane Toys"123 },124 {125 "handle": "super7-reaction-figures",126 "categorySlug": "action_figures",127 "brand": "Super7",128 "series": "ReAction"129 },130 {131 "handle": "hasbro-toy-group",132 "categorySlug": "action_figures",133 "brand": "Hasbro"134 },135 {136 "handle": "banpresto-toys",137 "categorySlug": "action_figures",138 "brand": "Banpresto"139 }140 ],141 "rules": [142 {143 "match": "^(?=[\\s\\S]*\\b(marvel|spider-?man|x-men|avengers|wolverine|hulk|deadpool|iron man|captain america|fantastic four|daredevil|venom|punisher)\\b)[\\s\\S]*\\| (comics|vintage-comics|cgc-graded-comics|ratio-variants)$",144 "categorySlug": "marvel_comics",145 "franchise": "Marvel"146 },147 {148 "match": "^(?=[\\s\\S]*\\b(dc comics|batman|superman|wonder woman|justice league|the flash|green lantern|aquaman|detective comics|action comics|harley quinn|joker|nightwing|swamp thing)\\b)[\\s\\S]*\\| (comics|vintage-comics|cgc-graded-comics|ratio-variants)$",149 "categorySlug": "dc_comics",150 "franchise": "DC"151 }152 ],153 "defaultCategory": null,154 "exclude": "gift card|sleeves?|deck box|binder|playmat|toploader|top loader|storage box|dice|tokens? only|bundle of|mystery|bags?
