Expertflyer does provide fare info back 1 year, but that will be little help in this case
Thanks I appreciate the advice, I wasn't adding ticketing date so EF wasn't showing historical fares
Edit: It actually looks like EF has historical fares for 2 years, and in 2019 UA loaded all of their discount fares for December the last week of June, so I will give it a few more weeks and monitor before I buy. I will attempt to remember to update here.
