I'm currently seeing the Completed and Sold links, too.  But from what others on this board and other boards have said, that may not last forever.  I think they are experimenting, or have a very very glitchy system, or both.  Here is a discussion on the "Search" board (which I did not know existed before today): http://forums.ebay.com/db1/topic/Search/Completed-Search/5100118052

CC, I'm not Craftyraven, but I also see the same thing he/she does:  Blue writing with "sold listings / completed listings" above the ad.


 


Here is a cut and paste of what is visible to me when I search "billiken postcard":


 


4 active listings | sold listings | completed listings


 


Here is a link to the page as I see it:

Thanks for posting that.  BTW, I'm a she.  -Debbie

I wonder if it matters what browser you're using.

Like many others who engage with the BSB, I sit in stunned disbelief as witness to something I thought I would never see. From the Solomon-like minds of those who manage eBay, they look to be adding a feature which would universally assist their customers, both buyers and sellers alike.


 


I thought I would never see the day.




Stan, they did it around the same time last year for a brief period, when they decided to throw everything into some experimental flux. What ebay has done here is the equivalent to an airline company testing new wing designs precisely at the zenith of the travel season. It's difficult to believe that shareholders appreciate taking large risks during the most important time of the year.

Good point, Crafty.



I see what Michele sees using Firefox, but not in IE.  In IE, I see what Cube sees.



Another reason to never use IE unless forced to.

But I use IE for eBay and that's what I see.


 


So the choice of browser may not be a factor.

Spoke too soon, I have been demoted to having to access completed listings only through advanced search as well as the BIN and auction selections jumping ramdomly from the top bar to the side bar.


 


This is bordering on absurdity.

Now look at this. It was not intentional, but look at the left bar.

I can do a search on myself for completed auctions but it only goes back 15 days.  However, I've always written down the ebay number of each auction I've listed as I don't trust computers. Or ebay.

I thought I‘d use the same search terms of "billiken postcard" and see how far back the completed auctions go.



Here‘s the result:
