    Default Back and have some questions

    It has been a while since I sold on here.
    This time I want to possibly try a store or stores.
    Is there a listing fee in stores? Do items go out of the stores after some set amount of time?
    Where can I see the final value fee percentages for store items?
    Is there some place i can see the deal about stores?
    Thanks in advance.
    I see as a top level seller i pay no auction fees. is this the same for fixed price store items?

    as you are seller + you can have 5 stores for free. Listings leave the stores only if you close the store or you want to move them. In the Help section is a table of fees. A gallery or thumbnail picture will incur 2% final value fees. Worth it, I think

    On eBid there is no distinction between shop and non-shop items, it's just up to you if you include something in a shop or not. There is, therefore, no difference in fees or behaviour.

    Gosh, people usually say that when I've just been incredibly rude to somebody. I had to go back and check just in case. *grin*

    2% for having a photo. Not sure what all that means. To avoid the 2% I would have no photo in the listings? What means gallery and thumbnails in terms of this?
    Thanks for the help so far.

    What it means is
    If you become Seller + you can list for free, but if you have a gallery photo then you pay 2% final value fees which is what it means if it sells.
    What is meaning Gallery is the thumbnail picture that is appearing by your listing when people view it.

    If you opt for the free listing the buyer will have to open the listing to see the picture. Gallery aka thumbnail means the buyer can see a picture of the item without opening the listing. This is attractive to 'browsers' like me. It saves time. And the 2% is only payable when the item sells

    A photo in the listing is VERY important. Does it open larger when clicked?
    I do find it a bit disingenuous to add a fee on a "free" deal for something that is included on most sites.
    2% is pretty low.
    I am a seller +.
    Thanks again.

    If you go for the free listing then there will be no fee's, if you go for Gallery then you'll pay 2% FVF, if your selling something say for $100 then go for the feature you'll pay $1 and there are no fees
