DiscountPriceInfo

Using this container, a seller can supply original retail price and discount price for an item to clarify the discount treatment (also known as strike-through pricing). This only applies to fixed-price listings and auction listings with the Buy It Now option. This feature is available for large enterprise sellers via white list. A seller can provide discount treatment regardless of whether the listing includes a SKU.

Fields

originalRetailPrice ( Amount (double) ) [1]
The actual retail price set by the manufacturer (OEM). eBay does not maintain or validate the OriginalRetailPrice supplied by the seller. OriginalRetailPrice should always be more than StartPrice. Compare the StartPrice/BuyItNowPrice to OriginalRetailPrice to determine the amount of savings to the buyer.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use originalRetailPrice.

pricingTreatment ( PriceTreatmentEnum ) [1]
Based on OriginalRetailPrice, MinimumAdvertisedPrice, and StartPrice values, eBay identifies whether the listing falls under MAP or STP (aka OriginalRetailPrice). GetItem returns this for items listed with one of these discount pricing treatments. GetSellerList returns the DiscountPriceInfo container. This field is not applicable for Add/Revise/Relist calls.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use pricingTreatment.

soldOffEbay ( boolean ) [0..1]
Used by the eBay UK and eBay Germany (DE) sites, this flag indicates that the discount price (specified as StartPrice) is the price for which the seller offered the same (or similar) item for sale on a Web site or offline store other than eBay in the previous 30 days. The discount price is always in reference to the seller's own price for the item.

If this field is set to 'true', eBay displays 'Was*' in the UK and 'Ursprunglich*' in Germany, next to the discounted price of the item. In the event both SoldOffeBay and SoldOneBay fields are set, SoldOneBay takes precedence.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use soldOffEbay.
