## Changelog

All notable changes to the eBay Sold Listings Scraper.

### 1.19 — 2026-07-23

**Input change**

- `categoryId` and `subcategoryId` are now free-text fields instead of dropdowns. You can enter **any** eBay category or subcategory ID — you're no longer limited to a preset list, so newer or less common categories work too. Both still map to `_sacat`, and `subcategoryId` still overrides `categoryId`. Look up any ID at [sold-comps.com/ebay-categories](https://sold-comps.com/ebay-categories). Existing inputs are unaffected — the field type and defaults (`"0"` / `""`) are unchanged.

### 1.18 — 2026-07-06

**New output fields**

- `buyingFormat` — distinguishes auction, Buy It Now, and auction-with-Buy-It-Now sales.
- `bidCount` — number of bids on auction listings.
- `fullResThumbnailUrl` — high-resolution (1600px) product image.

**New input option**

- `includeCompletedListings` (on by default) — turn it off to match eBay's plain "Sold" view. You get the exact same sold listings either way; the only difference is that "Best Offer Accepted" detection is disabled when it's off.

**Improvements**

- Faster, more reliable scraping for eBay Australia (`ebay.com.au`).

### 1.17 — 2026-06-10

**New output fields**

- `thumbnailUrl` — product image (500px).
- `sellerType` — `"private"` or `"business"` on EU marketplaces (DE, FR, IT, ES).

**Fixes & improvements**

- Fixed a parsing issue that could return the wrong listings on domestic searches.

### 1.16 — 2026-05-30

**New output fields**

- `listingType` — how the item sold: Best Offer Accepted, Buy It Now, or auction.
- `isBestOfferAccepted` — flags sales where the displayed price is the asking price, not the final accepted offer.

**Improvements**

- Reworked the fetching pipeline for higher success rates and fewer blocked requests.
