I wanted to check the full cost of a item including postage I bought via ebay in late 2015 ?
Is this possible on either ebay or paypal ?

Once upon a time Im sure  you could check more than 3 years of your past history ....which seems history !
Is it possible to check purchase transactions from more than 3 years ago .

  • You could try asking eBay customer support through chat, they might be able to help. If it's too long ago, your best bet would be to search your email account that you use for eBay. Do a search in your emails for the name of the item and the word ebay.

    justwhat said:

    I'm sure you still can. I haven't done it for a while, there's history of all transactions on Paypal.
    Obviously would need to have paid by Paypal.
    Emails are the other one. There are various ways, some service providers may have deleted emails stored if you log in through them.
