# MTG Argentina — Playwright Full-Catalog Scraper

## When to use
- User asks "what deals are at store X?" or "survey all stores"
- Comparing prices for a specific product across all Argentine retailers
- Looking for SLDs / bundles / commander collections / sealed
- Verifying stock + pricing for a planned purchase

## CRITICAL — Walk ALL pages, not just page 1

Most stores paginate with **12 products per page**. A category claiming "Secret Lairs" or "Booster Boxes" typically has 3-5 pages. **Always check for pagination and walk every page.**

## Required tools
- `mcp__plugin_playwright_playwright__browser_navigate` — load page
- `mcp__plugin_playwright_playwright__browser_evaluate` — extract products via JS
- `mcp__plugin_playwright_playwright__browser_wait_for` — handle Cloudflare delays
- `mcp__plugin_playwright_playwright__browser_close` — cleanup

## Standard scraping flow

### 1. Navigate to category page 1
```
browser_navigate(url=STORE_CATEGORY_URL)
```

### 2. Wait if needed
Phoenix Reborn has Cloudflare → wait 8 seconds:
```
browser_wait_for(time=8)
```

### 3. Extract products + detect pagination
```js
() => {
  const products = [];
  document.querySelectorAll('li.product, .product, .item-product, .js-item-product').forEach(card => {
    const name = card.querySelector('.woocommerce-loop-product__title, h2, h3, .name, .js-item-name')?.textContent?.trim();
    const price = card.querySelector('.price, .woocommerce-Price-amount, .js-price-display, .item-price')?.textContent?.trim();
    const stock = card.classList.contains('outofstock') ? 'OOS' : 'in stock';
    if (name) products.push({ name, price, stock });
  });
  const pages = [...document.querySelectorAll('.page-numbers, .pagination a')]
    .map(a => a.textContent.trim())
    .filter(t => /^\d+$/.test(t));
  return { products, maxPage: pages.length ? Math.max(...pages.map(Number)) : 1 };
}
```

### 4. Walk pagination — URL pattern per store

| Store | Pagination URL pattern |
|-------|------------------------|
| **Bazaar** | `https://bazaarmtg.com/categoria-producto/magic-the-gathering/<category>/page/N/` |
| **Rancho** | `https://ranchostoretcg.com.ar/categoria-producto/magic/page/N/` |
| **Phoenix Reborn** | `https://phoenixreborn.com.ar/inicio/mtg/page/N/` |
| **Labatikueva** | `https://www.labatikuevastore.com/magic-the-gathering/?mpage=N` (Tiendanube) |
| **Al Battle** | `https://albattletcg.com/magic/<category>/?mpage=N` (Tiendanube) |

### 5. Loop until last page

```python
# Pseudocode
page = 1
all_products = []
while True:
    navigate(category_url + f"/page/{page}/")
    result = evaluate(scrape_js)
    if not result.products:
        break
    all_products.extend(result.products)
    if page >= result.maxPage:
        break
    page += 1
```

### 6. Close browser
```
browser_close()
```

## Store-specific notes

### Bazaar of Baghdad (bazaarmtg.com)
- WooCommerce-based, 12 products/page
- Cash discount: not explicit on site
- Bank transfer discount: assume 5% (verify if needed)
- Categories: `/categoria-producto/magic-the-gathering/<slug>/`
  - `secret-lair` (5 pages, 60 SLDs)
  - `booster-box` (5 pages, 60 boxes)
  - `bundle` (2 pages, 14 bundles)
  - `spellbook` (1 page)
  - `decks-mazos` (1 page)
  - `commander-collection` (1 page)
  - `pre-release` (1 page)

### Rancho Store TCG (ranchostoretcg.com.ar)
- WooCommerce-based, 12 products/page
- Cash discount: 10% (efectivo)
- Bank transfer discount: 5%
- Best for: Marvel preorders, Hobbit/RF preorders, Lorwyn Collector
- Category: `/categoria-producto/magic/page/N/`
- 10+ pages of total Magic catalog

### Labatikueva (labatikuevastore.com)
- Tiendanube platform — DIFFERENT pagination
- URL: `/magic-the-gathering/?mpage=N`
- Need to scroll to load products (JS lazy-loading)
- Products: scroll 5-8 times before scraping
- Cash discount: ~5%
- Selector: `.js-item-product, .item-card, [data-product-id]`

### Al Battle TCG (albattletcg.com)
- Tiendanube — same as Labatikueva
- Cash/transfer discount: **10%** (best!)
- Often deep markdowns on Play Boxes (15-25% off)
- Categories: `/magic/<sub>/?mpage=N`
  - `booster-box1` = play boxes
  - `collector-booster-box` = collectors

### Phoenix Reborn (phoenixreborn.com.ar)
- WooCommerce + Cloudflare protection
- **Must wait 5-8 seconds** for Cloudflare to clear
- Discount: variable
- Best for: Hobbit Collector (specialty)
- URL: `/inicio/mtg/page/N/`

## Price interpretation

Argentine prices use **periods as thousand separators**:
- `$ 800.000,00` = 800,000 ARS
- `$ 1.740.000,00` = 1,740,000 ARS

**Always convert to USD using the CURRENT exchange rate (ask the user — never assume from memory).** Argentine peso moves weekly.

Apply discount AFTER conversion:
- Cash: -10% (Rancho, Al Battle)
- Transfer: -5% (most stores)

## Common pitfalls

- **Don't trust page 1 only** — most categories have 3-5 pages
- **Don't skip pagination detection** — walk every page
- **Don't forget Cloudflare wait** for Phoenix Reborn (5-8s)
- **Don't ignore Tiendanube scroll** for Labatikueva/Al Battle (lazy-loaded)
- **Don't conflate ARS thousand-separator periods with decimal points**
- **Don't apply cash discount twice** if site already shows discounted price
- **Don't assume exchange rate** — always confirm with the user

## Output format

Always produce:
1. **Total product count** across all pages
2. **Best deals** ranked by % below market
3. **Cross-store comparison** for same product when available
4. **TCG market verification** for suspected deals via Scryfall/MTGStocks

## Example workflow

User: "Survey Bazaar Secret Lairs"

1. Navigate page 1 → extract 12 products + detect 5 total pages
2. Navigate page 2 → extract 12 products
3. Navigate page 3 → extract 12 products
4. Navigate page 4 → extract 12 products
5. Navigate page 5 → extract 12 products
6. Close browser
7. Verify top candidates via TCGPlayer/MTGStocks
8. Report ranked deals
