You are a top rated seller which says to me that you've now exceeded the limit for free listings.Check your seller dashboard.

you have attained TRS Status, meaning you have acceptred the 30 free listings a month to try ebay to see if if suits you.

the 30 free listings are for new or casual sellers, once a seller uses these and makes a successful small business/income from eBay you are expected to join the ranks of eBay Sellers, worldwide, who pay fees to use ebay permanently.

$3,000per annum and 100 sales make you a Regular Seller no longer a casual or newcomer.

Congratulations, you have tried the free offer and found a niche where you can list AND sell your product, well done you, and well done eBay for giving your that opportunity.

all you can do really to keep your profit margin the same is increase your start prices by enough to cover the insertion fees for all your listings including the ones that don't sell and/or start a new id and list the less popular items there where they will still be free.

Thanks all seems solved it.

I am too good of seller on this ID so has ended the free listings 

Opened new seller ID & Can get 30 free on that till I get too good there I guess

Thanks again all for advise 🙂

I think stopping listing altogether on this id is not sensible, the 50c listing fee only becomes expensive if you have a lot of unsold items so why not, as I suggested earlier, keep listing your highest turnover items for a dollar more than you were listing them when they were free then unless your sell through rate drops below 50% you will be no worse off than you are now, keep the ne id for the items that you aren't so sure will sell.

Sales are too slow last month sold 2 items out 40  so nothing selling at all massive slow down just not paying for itself.

Until I can see a pick up signs I will completly stop selling on this ID till sales show signs picking up
