Default Eb@y Store. Worth it?

I asked this question before but no one seemed to have any input. Now i feel really stupid for saying this but... i tried calculating when it would actually be worth it and im 99% sure my calculations were wrong.

A lot of my accounts are only buy-it-now and don't have stores. I always get charged the .50cent fee for each listing. Adds up to quite a bit. Anyone have an idea how many items per month you have to sell for it to be worth using the basic eb@y store? I think the fee for that one is $15.

An ebay store is only worth it if you can prove your business is legit and you will be selling alot of things monthly.

They would ask them anyway even if i didn't have a store. Don't see why i have to have a legit business to have an eb*y store.

No they don't.

Also, the only increased risk of limitation comes if you sell more items as a result of having the shop.

Personally I think if you have over about 40 listings then it is worthwhile having. The monthly fee is massively offset by the reduced listing fees & you will sell more.

it all simple with BIN auctions... ur fee/BIN without a store is 0.50 with a store 0.20 (on average, it also depends on the category u r selling in). U save 0.30 per listing. The cheapest YObay store is 15.95 i believe. 15.95/0.30= approx. 53 sale a month. What it says that if you make more than 53 sales a month than it'be cheaper for u to open one... remember about another perks u get with Yobay store. Good example is the free gallery and up to 12 free photos!
