Yeah its on GTC, and you are tight at this stage i am well below my 40 limit. In fact i am still at full 0 used 40 left, it would be a different matter if i hit the 40 cap immediately at the renewal date of my listing. So it seems like they are all “excluded” for some reason.

And i am sure i’ve not selected a second category. Actually if i did, changing the item to “Auction style” would still show me the fee, but when it goes to auction it became free.

Really appreciate all the replies and ideas guys, trust me i’ve been playing around with most/all the settings for days, before resorting to posting here.
