If you retrieve a sold item and no details about the buyer/high bidder are returned or no final value fee is available, use this listing status information to determine whether eBay has finished processing the listing. <br><br> <span class="tablenote"><b>Note:</b> Starting in late August 2008, for the GetMyMessages call the listing status reflects the status of the listing at the time the question was created. The listing status for this call may not match the listing status returned by other calls such as GetItemTransactions. This is returned only if Messages.Message.MessageType is AskSellerQuestion.
