If you are looking for a good deal on Ebay, how do you know how much you should pay?
Ebay’s “search completed listings” is fairly useless. It only lasts 15 days, and often comes up with no results. Looking at other active listings are also useless if no one is selling the same item. The current bid is also useless because everyone now bid snipes so you are probably only seeing a low figure until the last few seconds.
It turns out that Ebay actually records the average sale price for many standardized items. It is just somewhat hidden. I will tell you how to find it for free.
First, login and click on sell item. Try to find the category your item is in.

Now Ebay will let you enter the product description and will hopefully display the item you are looking for.

Now click on “More listing choices”. Do not click on “keep it simple”.
Scroll down and then you should find the information you are looking for.

This information should be very useful to buyers so you can decide whether the current sellers are overpriced and you should wait for a couple days. You will not get charged any fees for looking at this information.
