This and the previous reply is to Vickibob. Just fixed the quote...

Twice I have had a store, back in 1990's and now. I am a hobby seller who has made ebay great, lots of my money has gone their way.   I have had sales and run my stock down was about to reopen with bigger improved store, but not sure what to do now.  Markets are not for me, due to disability. But where else can I sell online with the same exposure??   Also I am waiting to hear replies from ebay to all the questions....

Going back on my word here but anyway...

Something that seems to be popular with Stores is the 30-day listings. One way to replicate that with the casual seller, "30-free-listings a month" account is to open a number of different accounts. Whether eBay will allow this, technically, I can't be certain. But if they do, then you can run the free 10-day listings (the maximum time per individual listing), list 10 items per month on each account, use Selling Manager (for free), and assign the Rule that if they don't sell within the 10-day period, they are automatically re-listed. So, it's like a store in a way. It would take a bit of tweaking but if you put in the effort, I bet you could work out a way to make the casual seller status into a replicate store.
