At some point in the last two days Ebay updated code which seems to have broken the ability to view order details from an items page after its sold to the winning bidder. Anything with a buy it now still shows as originally designed. However there is a way to get the information your used to with a little creative code. When you view an item that's sold the URL reads like this https://www.ebay.com/itm/{ItemID} (a 12 digit item identifier.) Ebay is designed to generate a TransID (a 13 digit transaction number) once an item sells and peice it together in the body to produce the links we're accustomed to. The order details page is usually
https://vod.ebay.com/vod/FetchOrderDetails?sspagename=STRK%3AMESO%3AVPS&itemid={ItemID}&transid={transID}
The issue is Ebay is not assigning transaction ID numbers on auctions currently so it's not showing the links but the solution is to copy the endpoint, set the transID to 0 while setting it as the first string, then add your item ID to the end.
https://vod.ebay.com/vod/FetchOrderDetails?transid=0&sspagename=STRK%3AMESO%3AVPS&itemid={ Your ItemID}
If your clever with html you can easily make a tool to take you to the details page by inputting the itemID into a form. Once ebay fixes this issue the solution most likely won't work any longer but it will get you where you want to be for the time being. Open notepad, copy the following text into it
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body><h1>EBAY DETAILS</h1>
<form action="https://vod.ebay.com/vod/FetchOrderDetails" method="get">
<input type="hidden" value="0" name="transid">
<input type="hidden" value="STRK:AMESO:AVPS" name="sspagename">
Ebay Item#: <input type="text" name="itemid">
<input type="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
