So I have a basic store and I have 1,002 listings currently. I've had my basic store subscription for about 3 months now and been at around 1,000 listings for over 2 months (Didn't want to go over because I didn't want to pay insertion fees). All of my listings are "Buy It Now". Everything I have read suggests that renewed listings count towards my 1,000 free monthly listings... but when I go on the mobile app, eBay shows me today (January 18th) that I still have 957 more free listings available this month (until February 1st). We are more than halfway through January and I've had several hundred of my listings renew since they only last 30 days, and I've even listed around 40ish new listings this month.
Is the eBay app just wrong? Or am I able to add 1,000 new listings every single month with no insertion fee with a basic store? Literally everything I read online about the basic store says renewed listings do subtract from your 1,000 free listings per month, so this is extremely confusing. Before I got the basic store subscription, I always used the mobile app to see how many free listings I had left of the 250 they provided. The number was always accurate back then...
I have so much stuff to sell and I already have listings up. Unfortunately I get zero views on most stuff. I already have a career but I do want to do eBay as a side hustle. Is it worth opening a basic store for doing this as a side hustle and when first starting?
Seasoned eBay sellers, I'm curious about the potential downsides and advantages of having a eBay subscriptions. Could you kindly share your experiences or any challenges you've faced with an eBay store subscription? Your insights will be greatly appreciated!
At the end of September I had 325 listings uploaded, I didn’t create any new listings for the month of October and ended the month with 131 free listings still available. Does anyone know the formula for how eBay determines if listings count towards those free credits?
I've been selling for a few months, have 150 items sold and generally feel like I'm doing well as a part time gig to supplement my income. I am wondering if I should make a leap to paying for a store and which tier to go.
Did you find that sales increased when you upgraded to even a basic store? Does it boost in the algo?
I've twice now hit the monthly 250 item posting limit. Part of that could be listing lots and some may be duds.
Any thoughts on the jump?
