^^Agreed. I don't think you can downgrade.

no it is definately not possible.
UK site has just this month started offering way more free listings to personal accounts than before.....I guess that might be the reason.

You need to contact ebay to go from business to personal. The staff can do it for you.

If you want it for the free listings why not just open another ebay account with the same details

If you have already established yourself as a seller, making a new account wont do you any good as you'll need to start from scratch again.

You can contact eBay support. Its a long process. It doesn't always work.

what you do not get about a personal account, it is hard to run a business from anyway, none of the seller tools exist for it. So say you go on holiday, or you cannot bulk edit and unless it is good til cancelled you have to relisted 100s of listings manually, would take all day and lots more.
