Members without a store are allowed 50 free listings per calendar month. But that is totally separate from your selling or listing limits so if you've reached those limits, it doesn't matter how many free listings you have left. I don't totally understand how the limits works as I haven't had to deal with them but I do know that they have nothing to do with the number of free listings.

if I subscribe for a basic store. Will these limits become higher? and when will I have to pay it? Right there and then or next month? When did you pay your store when you first started?

No, having a store with more free listings will not increase selling limits. The best way to increase selling limits is to sell some items. Selling limits will be reviewed each month. Be sure to click on the option to increase selling limits. I think they might increase even if you do not sell because you keep trying to sell.
The purpose of selling limits is to prevent scammers setting up an account with many listings and selling them then not shipping items. This used to happen years ago.

Please note that selling limits are counted as items not listings. You can reach your 10 item limit if you list 1 item in each of 10 listings for 10 items or 1 listing with a quantity of 10 items or 2 listings with a quantity of 5 items and so on.

I believe that if you list and sell five items, you only have five more listings available if you are working with a New Seller Restriction of 10 listings. Not ten items listed at any given moment.
It's a monthly maximum.

As I mentioned earlier this week when you ended your listings to revise and then relist them, it would count toward your selling limits. Sellers are allowed to revise an Active Listing without this happening. As soon the listing ends, whether by sale or as a result of you closing it prematurely, it counts toward your selling limits. Those limits are in place to protect buyers from careless or unethical sellers, and also to protect you from yourself if you make too many mistakes which prove to be costly.
Selling limits will increase on their own. There is no way that you as a regular user can fast-track this process, you'd have to be a sister ID for an already-established Anchor+ seller or a Big Box Business in your own right coming to ebay in order for ebay to even think of it.

You get X listings each month or more precisely each 30 days.
I'm not clear how that works out , but if your two ended ones were at or near their 30 day life, then the new ones would be for the next month.

Punch in a few random numbers.
And for postal codes- K0A 0A6 / V8W 1P6/ 90210
Parcel rates are by weight, dimensions, and destination.
Letter rates are by weight and dimensions.
A bubble envelope is already 1 cm thick. Poly envelopes weigh less than paper envelopes.
If you don't want the carrier to fold it, you need a stiffener which will also weigh something.
I was in Canadian Tire this week and they have StarFrit digital kitchen scales on sale for about $12.

Yes, the StarFrit digital kitchen scale would be one of the your most important investment if you want to save time and money with shipping online. And use a ruler or measuring tape to measure your final height x length x width with packing material taken into account.
Instead of wasting time on YouTube videos, go study how to ship and the various shipping costs and services. We're all adults here so you should be responsible for your own learning and research. You have already been given, on multiple threads, links and info on where to read and learn, you need to actually go read them yourself instead of asking people to spoon feed you info. When I look at your listings, there are so many potential area of improvement. The photos are great (though I would use a cleaner background, not one with stains), but the shipping prices (so that you don't lose money selling here) and the item descriptions need a lot of work.
would this work? I have one like this that I weigh my weight too.
