i thought it would of been a good idea to open, but within the month sales have been down

You could still use your 40 free per month without the store, doesn't cost you anything.

And if you can select 3 free relists on all, that in effect gives you 160 free listings per month.

i thought having the store would of increased my sales, but no luck.

Stores don't increase your exposure, just allow more 'free' listings and your own categories.

One month is hardly sufficient time to see if a store will work for you.

As davewill said a month is not enough time to judge sales from a store, there are advantages to a store ie 30 day GTC listings, lower final evalution fees, 200 free listings a month, and really only $20 a month for a basic store, we did not see the advantages for several months after opening ours, but now would not be with out it.

Non-stores are now offered 30 day listings and GTC from a couple of weeks ago.

really where was that notice Cathy? I must have missed that

cathyjoyjoy · ‎25-02-2016

There was no notification at all from eBay. I noticed it only as I was relisting an item and wanted to change the length of the listing. I recall also seeing it mentioned briefly on the boards at the same time I noticed it.
