by Firefox user 13664579, 6 years agoExport CSV is useless. It stands for COMMA separated values. Also inserts lots of seemingly random text characters in the fields. The option to select columns has no effect on the export. So CSV export is just garbage.
Follow Up: Found a work around for CSV export. Load it into notepad. Copy and past into Word. do search and replace for all commas to spaces. Then do search and replace for all tab characters to commas. then copy and paste back to notepad. Save and rename .txt to .csv. Now can be opened by excel and is readable.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Ben, 3 years agoDisappointed. CSV file won't open in excel, but does in Numbers. It does not include any dates, so it's practically useless. It only includes the first page of the data from eBay - my history for a year runs to 3+ pages. Currently, more trouble than it's worth - please make a bit more effort and finish what you have started! Thanks

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14332492, 6 years agoI use this to extract my Ebay purchase history to a spreadsheet. As Ebay does not allow research of older purchase history (beyond 2 years), I find maintaining my own archive very useful. Additionally, once the data is in a spreadsheet, its much faster to look up more recent purchases than dealing with Ebay's clunky interface for anything that isn't on the first page of Purchase History. This add-on isn't perfect, but it is much better than anything Ebay offers.
UPDATE 1/2/2020: It looks like Ebay has done something like move the "Purchase Date" column, as that no longer populates in this Ebay Report add-on. However, it did work in May 2019, but I'm not sure when in between Ebay broke this add-on. I'd love to get that "Purchase Date" field working if possible. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14776988, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by dj-kubis, 7 years agoThis module is very good, but I can't set separator for csv export because tab separator is not well for me...
Developer response
posted 7 years agoThanks for your feedback. I will create an option in the future that allows you to specify the CSV separator.
@edit: the feature was added as of v1.0.21
