I'm looking on my seller store page, and can't seem to find any way for visitors to see other items i've sold? This would be nice so they know what inventory I have had in the past.

Click view seller's other items.
Then click sold filter on the left side of page.

Just curious.
Why would it be nice to see what you've sold but no longer have for sale?

Yes they can, very easily in fact. I have to ask though, what would that have to do with a customer wanting to purchase an item that they are already actively looking for?
I have never even thought of looking up what a seller has sold in the past when I'm already actively searching for something that I want to purchase in the moment or at that time. I could care less what the person whom I'm buying from has sold in the past.
Maybe if it's something niche and they sell in 1 category(like myself) but even then, it's not going to help me find what I'm looking for at that present time.
The majority of eBay sellers, 95%+ if I had to guess, sell everything from rocks to paper plates, cards, clothes, electronics and so on. So for someone that is already actively searching for something specific, looking at what a seller has sold in the past isn't going to help them necessarily.
If I were you, I would be more concerned on sourcing the best possible items that you can, making sure your listings, photo's, descriptions, customer service etc... are optimized and to the best of your ability before anything else.
Customers only want a few things. They want what they're looking for, they want it to be described as they saw it online to when it shows up to their doorstep, they want a good price(good deal), they want fast shipping(aka handling time, not necessarily the shipping time itself) and last but not least, they want good customer service. That's it. Most other things are 100% completely out of your control and you should not worry about them.

Add these two lines to your descriptions.

I don't understand why anyone would want to promote previously sold and presently unavailable items.

Maybe as a buyer, and i'm looking for a specific item. As a buyer once i see you've sold it, and if im thinking about a current item in the store, i might not drag my feet to buy it.

When I look at ANY seller's items for sale, I can also click on his "sold" items as can any other buyer.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.

Hello. I tried to follow your instructions using both the seller ID and under store name page. Neither page showed me an option for 'view seller's other items'. I am a long time seller and feel like I navigate eBay well, but I cannot get this to work for me. Any suggestions.

Just realized I messaged using my 2nd account. But I really have been selling for 20 yrs. lol.

*You find the link to 'view seller's other items' on any item page. When viewing an item on ebay you will see that near the seller's username.
'View seller's other items' shows search results for all items by that seller. Then click the sold filter on the left of that search results page.
* It's also shown other places but I usually click it on the item pages because I don't like looking at a sellers store. I find ebay stores highly annoying.

You have no current listings. Did you just post some stuff? It can take up to 24 hours for new listings to appear in the searches, but you can see them yourself in your Seller Hub under Active Listings.

What level of a Store do you have? I ask because you don't seem to have enough active listings to need a Store. A Starter level store would be fine, but if you have a Basic or above store, it would be a waste of money at this point until you are running at least 300+ listings each month.

On an item page, click on Seller's other items........in upper right corner
Then, from the column to the left,.....click on sold items

When you click on Seller's Other Items" the menu on the left side that once included "Sold items" is now gone.
