GetBestOffers is not able to fetch other than active offers

Documentation says field BestOfferStatus will filter by status.

But any calls with this field set to "All" will fail with warning "Only Active offers are returned for this request."

How do I supposed to fetch non-active offers??

It does not work.

ItemID + BestOfferID gives out "Only Active offers are returned for this request" warning.

I tried all possible variation. It does not work. It does not even work with OfferID. If this offer is not active.

I belive this request is broken and may return active offers only. And it contradicts documents.

Hi @hiperlights_russia,

Please make sure to include ItemID while using 'All' value in BestOfferStatus and retry the call because when the filter "All" is used in this case (when both ItemID and BestOfferID are omitted), its behavior is not "all" but is instead "active best offers only" (i.e. the same as Active).
