Why can I only see purchases back to 2018. I am looking for the archive tab and it's missing

[abrad50]

So I need to go back and check out details about an item from a few years ago. Purchase History now has been clipped to what looks like 2 years only

That is the archive tab.....you can only go back 2-3 years.

Your paypal account goes back further.

It has not been 'clipped'. eBay have never kept records for more than that long. At least you know now. And will in future keep your own records of what you've bought.
