Basic Store Free Listing Question

[goguac-lake]

I have been considering stepping up from my Starter Store to a Basic Store because the slight discount on final value fees would make it economically sensible given my sales volume the last couple years.  However, most of my listing are auctions in the Sporting Goods category (primarily fishing tackle).  If I am reading the Basic Store information correctly, I would not get 250 free monthly auction listings in the Sporting Goods category because Sporting Goods is not one of the eligible free auction listing categories in the Basic Store.  Those listing are free in the Starter Store.  Just looking for confirmation that I am reading that correctly.

Yes, you are reading that correctly; you'd pay 30 cents per auction-format insertion in that category, so you'd have to balance that cost against the savings in final value fees.

Thanks, much appreciated!  Seems like a pretty strong deterrent to moving up to a Basic Store, makes the decision to stay with the Starter Store pretty easy.
