If you paid with paypal, go to your paypal account…
view all transactions
put in the correct to and from dates
go to the item/transaction in question
click on details
there is your seller, their email address, their real name and address and their ebay ID

It really is pretty easy. But you need to think like a computer programmer!

In you eBay profile, you have a “Won” item. Select that.

Ebay does not save your Won items beyond 60 days.

@DarkScribe Ebay does not save your Won items beyond 60 days. It may be only 30 days.

It does for mine. I buy on eBay quite often and I just checked – I have my purchases listed for November last year – that’s more than sixty days. Maybe eBay Australia is different? In fact I am still being prompted (just now when I looked) to leave feedback for purchases made at Christmas. I won’t as I was not happy with the goods or the seller.

Not only does Ebay (here in the USA) not save your won items in your my ebay beyond 60 days, but we using ebay in the USA cannot leave feedback after 60 days either. If I have not left feedback for a sold or won item within 60 days it just vanishes…poof!

ebayAU must have a completely different set of rules and regs regarding saved, won and sold items.

I think I like your ebay better than ours. But at least you can always go to paypal (if that is how you paid) to find these items months later.

Although I only buy on eBay, for various reasons I do have a paid commercial account – (A family member was going start selling things – but it didn’t eventuate.) Maybe that is the reason.

Ahh…Maybe. Is the account a store, or just a seller’s account?
I have a seller’s account (not a store) and it is only 60 days retention for all my won, sold or unsold items. I just looked and I won a bunch in January, but the list of won items only goes back to 2/7/10…
Also, I didn’t leave feedback for a few items and they disappeared too…

It is a store – but it has never been used. I get debited monthly for it – maybe I should close it.

@DarkScribe I would. I mean it’s your choice of course, and perhaps it isn’t much of a charge, so perhaps if you plan to sell multiple items you might want to keep it. But I was told on the ebay Answer Center that unless you are constantly selling quite a few items every month, week in and week out, that you are just funding the ebay execs’ condos in Aspen and the mooring fees for their yachts.

How much does ebay charge just to keep a store without selling anything? If you don’t mind my asking.

Not much – which is why I haven’t really worried about it. I have someone who insists that one day they will get around to disposing of all manner of items through eBay. I think that it is about au$20–25 per month.
