If you do a Cert. Verification and it shows an Ebay sale, how can you find that sale?
I searched and could not find it using 'sold/completed' listings.
[the Ebay sale was within the last 6 months]
Thanks

Ebay sales will only show for 2-3 months(the length of time ebay keeps it available in their system).
I have also noticed they seem to be very selective of which ebay sales they will show! Most coins that sell above the average on ebay do not seem to show unless you find it on a cert verify. Many do not show on coinfacts!
As far as I understand it only eBay sales in which the seller has entered the cert number in the appropriate field in the item details will show up. I don't think PCGS has the time to hand-picked auction records. Most of the stuff on the PCGS site is automated, like Coinfacts TrueViews, which are just automatically sorted first by grade, and then by the date the image was added (most recent first), making the term "Coinfacts Plate coin" pretty meaningless.

I can refute this because what I am telling you is coins I have sold on ebay not showing up in coin facts and I always enter the cert #!
If you subscribe to terapeak, you can find any coin that was sold/listed on eBay during the past 12 months
Interesting.. one that I bought using a BIN shows in the cert lookup

Maybe the certification # has to be in the correct field in the ebay listing to show in the history?

An 8 month old search shows the ebay listing.....odd that PCGS says it sold for $460, but, ebay shows it sold for $480:
