Worthpoint is an eBay archive but you must have a subscription to get the archived price.  Ebay itself only allows completed searches for 90 days I believe.

You can go back in time a little way on Ebay by using the Advanced search option and selecting "Completed Listings". I am not sure how far back this goes.

I just tested this on ebay...went to advanced search, checked off completed listings, put in "beanie baby" to search for as I know there would be many listings, and hit search.  The oldest listing was Oct 24 which isn't even 30 days.  Something isn't right.

Hmmm...from an ebay page..."Completed listings are listings that have ended within the last 15 days, whether or not the item sold."  Supposedly you must go into your "my ebay account page" and set the default to 60 days but I do not see anything in there to change this setting.
