I'm surprised no one has brought this up on Net54 about the latest ebay annoyance.
Since the end of December, if you want to see what an item sold for when "Best offer" was used, ebay no longer provides the selling price.
I like to track and keep records of what high-end items sell for, so that I can see where the price is heading on particular items. That has not been possible since the end of December.
I found a discussion on the internet and learned of a work around. When you search for "completed items" Click on the item you want to learn more about.
Where the url has ebay.com, just insert another non-U.S. country and you will see the final price.
here is an example of before and after using Australia:
The current, broken way:

The Better way:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2011-TEXA...item232677c0ff
I'm sure it won't be long, until ebay changes the listings for all countries.
When sellers want to sell the same items over and over, I guess ebay wants to continue to help sellers, at the expense of buyers. The new changes helps keep buyers in the dark about what items sell for.
