Changing over to a store

[oddsandendsoz]

This may be a stupid question, but I am considering changing over to a basic store to get slightly better FVF fees. What happens to your current listings when doing so? Most of my listings now are BIN with Make an offer on them, when I move over do they automatically become fixed price, or do I have to manually edit?

MAO is not charged for in a store. Just like a non-store.

Thanks Dave, not sure what I have been looking at

It is a while since I looked at the comparisons and assumed that adding a MAO was $1.50, seems that was wrong. I hardly ever do auctions, but recently have done, so may run my auctions out first before moving over to a store. I am right in at least thinking the auctions are charged in a basic store yes?

Auctions are charged for (unless they are collectible categories); BINs, with or without MAO are part of your 200 (400 until the end of October) included listings.

But you don't have to wait for them to end - once they go live I think you won't be charged within your store.

Just to add to what davewil said, collectibles includes anything listed under Crafts, so if you're selling those you can choose either auction or BIN as part of your free listing allowance.

Collectables covers a very large range of stuff

Thanks for all the help people!!

Looking at the figures it will be nominal in savings having a basic store, but the extra listings may mean its worth it in the end. I never have more than 120 listings so not too bothered about missing the non-store freebies that come up.

Also and this is dreamland, perhaps the store gives you a tiny bit less throttle time?

This gives a list of the categories where the final value fees differ from the norm, and also those that have free auction listings (halfway down the right column).

No there is no fee to add MAO with a store.
