I do not have the option for a Starter Store

I have 2 ebay accounts, on the first when the starter store came out I got that one and been on it since the start.

On my second which is this account I opened it last year and now I am ready to get a starter store but when I go to subscriptions I only see Basic, Premium and Anchor.

Is this a bug? did they already remove this?

Starter store available only on .com, not on .ca.

Lowest level eBay store on.ca is the Basic store.

Was unable to locate any further information regarding any change to the release dates for either the Starter or Enterprise stores in Canada.

You get 50 Free Listings without a Store.

You can get another 50 Free Listings at not further cost, by putting 50 listings on dotCOM and 50 on dotCA.

That gives you 100 Free Listings.

You will still be paying for any listings over that, but I understand that the Starter Store offers 100 "free" listings for $7.95US a month.

 

My suggestion is cheaper.

There are quirks.

As you know you have to use the currency of the site, and you have to use Flat Rate shipping on dotCOM.

ZOMBIE THREAD FROM 2020

 

Usually zombie threads are much older, but there have been many changes since March.

Sellers now have 200 listings Free without a Store.

Store subscribers now has 300 listing included with their Basic Store subscription.

 

The doubling of free listings is still available , so 400 Free Listings between dotCA and dotCOM.
