Basic vs Starter Store

Hello fellow eBayers...

 

I have been selling without a store and am interested in setting up a store. I am wondering what the differences are between the Basic and Starter stores as do not want to sign up for the Starter store and find out it does not do what I am interested in doing.   so which benefits are available on a Starter store?  I would like to be able to list until it sells, not have item number change every week (I run auctions), be able to contact watchers, have sales, have more views, have a store name, etc.  I do not want to lose current following, so I was planning to open a separate store rather than convert to a store... and wonder if I can do that easily... have posted the info from their page... they reference not all benefits are available with a Starter store, but cannot find anything about which ones are available with a Starter store... not very helpful... appreciate your insights... thank you so much... have a great day...smile...

However, you do lose ALL your hard-earned feedback.  It doesn't follow you to a new store.  Live and learn on that one!

Just FYI, you do not lose your followers. Nothing changes when you get a store. I too was worried about the same stuff you were but honestly, it was seamless.

That is not correct. You do not lose your feedback (or your followers) if you open a store, as long as you do it with the same account. You only loose feedback (and followers) if you open a new account for the store (which it looks like you may have done that in July).
