=head1 NAME

WWW::Search::Ebay::Completed - backend for searching completed auctions on www.ebay.com

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use WWW::Search;
  my $oSearch = new WWW::Search('Ebay::Completed');
  my $sQuery = WWW::Search::escape_query("Yakface");
  $oSearch->native_query($sQuery);
  $oSearch->login('ebay_username', 'ebay_password');
  while (my $oResult = $oSearch->next_result())
    { print $oResult->url, "\n"; }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class is a Ebay specialization of L<WWW::Search>.
It handles making and interpreting Ebay searches
F<http://www.ebay.com>.

This class exports no public interface; all interaction should
be done through L<WWW::Search> objects.

=head1 NOTES

You MUST call the login() method with your eBay username and password
before trying to fetch any results.

The search is done against completed auctions only.

The query is applied to TITLES only.

See the NOTES section of L<WWW::Search::Ebay> for a description of the results.

=head2 login

Takes two string arguments,
the eBay userid and the eBay password.
(See WWW::Search for more information.)

=head2 http_request

This method does the heavy-lifting of fetching encrypted pages from ebay.com.
(See WWW::Search for more information.)

  {
  my $self = shift;
  my $sPage = shift;
  # For debugging:
  print STDERR $sPage;
  exit 88;
  } # preprocess_results_page

sub _columns_USE_SUPER
  {
  my $self = shift;
  # This is for basic USA eBay:
  return qw( paypal bids price enddate );
  } # _columns


=head2 _parse_enddate

Defines how to parse the auction ending date from the HTML.
(See WWW::Search::Ebay for more information.)

=cut

  my $oTDdate = shift;
  my $hit = shift;

    return 0;

  # Convert nbsp to regular space:
