Hi Kyle,
I've been doing sort of the same thing (manually) for a set I'm thinking
about putting on (U.S.) eBay and here's what I've found. If you search
the item under "Completed Auctions", it appears you get a listing of
what sold for the past three weeks and the final price. But if you
search a particular seller's completed auctions, it lists what they've
sold in the past four weeks (gee, Mike, how many 4565's did you manage
to pick up?!). After that amount of time I believe the item drops off
their database. (The only thing is, I thought you have sixty days to
leave feedback regarding an item-- maybe it is only thirty.)
HTH!
