## MCP tools (3)

### `shopgoodwill_search` (~261 tokens)

Search active auctions on shopgoodwill.com, the online auction site run by Goodwill member organizations — cameras, jewelry, watches, art, collectibles, electronics, clothing. Returns live listings with current bid price, bid count, buy-now price, category, end time and listing URL. Bids are served through a 5-minute result cache, so the current bid can be up to five minutes old: near the close of an auction treat it as a lower bound, never as the final price. Sourced from the shopgoodwill.com search API.

Input parameters:

- `buy_now_only` (boolean): Only listings with a Buy Now price
- `category_id` (number): Optional ShopGoodwill category id to narrow results (e.g. 15 = Art, 99 = Books)
- `max_price` (number): Maximum current price in USD
- `min_price` (number): Minimum current price in USD
- `page` (number): Result page, starting at 1
- `per_page` (number): Max results to return, up to 40 (each source page holds 40 rows; use page to paginate)
- `query` (string, required): Search keywords, e.g. "nikon d750" or "sterling silver"

### `shopgoodwill_sold_search` (~220 tokens)

Search closed ShopGoodwill auctions for realized sale prices — what items actually sold for at Goodwill online auctions. Price comps for used cameras, watches, jewelry, instruments, electronics and collectibles. Returns final hammer price, bid count and close date per lot; the archive reaches back about 90 days. Sourced from the shopgoodwill.com closed-auction search API.

Input parameters:

- `category_id` (number): Optional ShopGoodwill category id
- `days_back` (number): How many days of closed auctions to search (default 30; archive holds ~90 days)
- `max_price` (number): Maximum final price in USD
- `min_price` (number): Minimum final price in USD
- `page` (number): Result page, starting at 1
- `per_page` (number): Max results to return, up to 40 (each source page holds 40 rows; use page to paginate)
- `query` (string, required): Search keywords, e.g. "rolex" or "fender stratocaster"

### `shopgoodwill_item` (~151 tokens)

Full detail for one ShopGoodwill auction lot by item id: description, current/minimum bid, bid history (bidder names masked by the site), buy-now price, seller Goodwill organization, shipping and handling, image URLs and end time. Item ids come from shopgoodwill_search or shopgoodwill_sold_search. Bids are served through a 5-minute result cache, so the current bid can be up to five minutes old: near the close of an auction treat it as a lower bound, never as the final price. Sourced from the shopgoodwill.com item API.

Input parameters:

- `item_id` (number, required): ShopGoodwill item id, e.g. 275778141

## Common questions

### What is the Shopgoodwill MCP server?

Shopgoodwill is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/shopgoodwill. ShopGoodwill auctions, active listings, closed auctions with final sale prices, and per-item… This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-shopgoodwill).

### Is the Shopgoodwill MCP server safe to use?

Shopgoodwill scores 82 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Shopgoodwill MCP server expose?

Shopgoodwill exposes 3 tools: shopgoodwill_search, shopgoodwill_sold_search, shopgoodwill_item. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 632 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Shopgoodwill MCP server still maintained?

Shopgoodwill is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Shopgoodwill MCP server under?

Shopgoodwill declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Shopgoodwill MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Shopgoodwill, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
