i was hoping for at less 1% reduction but nope still 10%. does i get a credit at the end of the month or something?

The FVF are calculated based on the time you listed your item. The rate is tagged to the listing

If you listed prior to opening a store, then 10% FVF applies.

If you listed an item after opening a store the FVF will vary (typically 5% to 9% depending on categories)

The better discount on FVF is when you achieve Top-Seller status. 

In Canada, that means Global Top Rated Seller, which is generally achieved fairly quickly once reaching the first tier Powerseller level.

Your feedback as a seller looks to be promising, I'm sure it won't take you long to achieve this. In the meantime, familiarize yourself with all the policies and procedures here and keep up the good work.

As mentioned by Pierre, the rate at the time of listing (non-store 10%) is in effect until the listing ends. 

If you wish to get the new lower rate immediately, you would have to end the listings now and relist.

As for the store FVF rates, they range from 4% (not 5%) to 9%. The 4% is for select computer related categories and since you do list in some computer categories, I thought I would mention this minor correction.

I had a store briefly last year (3 month reduced trial rate at 5.99 a month CAD) and sold some old CPUs which were at 4% FVF instead of 10%. A big difference in actual FVF paid on those items.

Here is the eBay help page for store FVF rates.

You should at least end and relist the amiga. If it sells, and you have a lot of watchers, the fee difference will pay for your store for over 3 months

That's great advice, toby**bleep**zu. Also, with a store subscription comes the ability to sort your items into Categories. They are really useful.

I did not see the Amiga listed! I would change the catagory from Vintage Computing which I believe is at 9% to Desktop Computers at 4%. Even though it is old, it is still a desktop computer.
