I'm considering a starter store. Promo info says I get 100 fixed price listings and 100 auction listings for my $8. Is that 200 listings altogether or 100 of both combined? Also can you schedule when you auction listings start when you have a store?

This basic Help page explains that your Starter store subscription includes 100 free insertions per month, which can be used either for fixed price format listings, or for auction-format listings in the 13 specific categories that are listed on that page just below this chart.

It's 100 + 100 = 200 total
But the auction listings can't have Buy It Now without paying an extra fee. (unlike non store auction listings where BIN is free)
Some categories aren't included in the 100 Auction listings (example bedding) but are in Fixed Price
You can use the scheduled start if you want but I don't know why anyone does that. It's extra $$

There is a fee for scheduling if you have a Store.
Promo info says I get 100 fixed price listings and 100 auction listings for my $8
If this promo says 100 AND 100 then that's what it means. Be aware that normally a Starter Store only gets 100 free listings that can be used for Fixed Price OR Auctions.
You may have received a limited promotional offer for 100 and 100, if so then understand that it is LIMITED as per the terms of the offer.
You should also be aware that for any Store level the included Auction listings are limited to select categories.

The regular Starter Store is $7.95/mo. with an annual commitment. That allows 100 total listings... it doesn't differentiate between Auction or BIN.
We don't know what your 'promo' is, but take the advice of @gwzcomps. Read the fine print (fees, upgrade costs, cancellation, etc.) carefully before flipping that toggle.

My bad. You are correct on the annual price. OP won't have to consider cancellation fees. Thanks!

$7.95 is the month-to-month rate. If you're willing to make the annual commitment, the monthly cost is $4.95.

If this is a start to selling, as in you are a new seller you may not be allowed to use all 100, or however many it is.
New sellers have # of items, and $$$ limits when starting to sell. Getting a store of any kind does not override the limits.
My buying account gets offers all the time for 100, 200, 500 listings, but if I started to sell on it I would be limited probably to 10 listings.

I believe @slippinjimmy has the same promo. If it works for one, it usually works for others. Good Luck!!!

Thanks! I stand corrected on the starter store! Glad you could post that screen shot!

Hi, are you a new seller? There may be selling limits for the first few months. If that is the case, you may be limited in the number of listings or dollar amount sold you can have per month. For example, some are allowed 10 listings or $500 per month in sales. In that case, you may not be able to take advantage of the full 100 store listings until the new seller limits are raised.
If you use the Advanced listing form and do not have a store, you can schedule your listings to start at a specific date and time at no charge.

I don't have any promo and at the moment I don't have a Store on any of my selling id's.
