Just wondering what what USA sellers typically use for 6 month average pricing?
If you are selling in the US only and choose to set your prices at the 6 month
average, do you use the 6 month average for the US or do you use the 6 month
average for all countries?

How do you get the 6 month average for USA only? For past sales, you can only
split by currency rather than location and lots of people sell in USD, not just
USA based sellers.

Plus it is a lot of work to do this manually. It might be worthwhile to do it
for more expensive items, but then it is often better to look at current domestic
competition rather than past sales.

You have missed out some important words though...

On Price Guide Detail Current Items for Sale Include only Items in Stores
which are Located:

That setting does not help with six month average sold prices. They are not current
items.
