Unexpected Listing Fee With Store

[kds99]

I'm creating a new auction listing for a camera and the listing fees shows as 15 cents. I have hundreds of free listings remaining from my store subscription, so what might this listing fee be caused by?

Did you put a Reserve on the selling price?
Did you use Sub-Title?

[kds99]

Nope. No reserve price, no sub-title. Thanks for your response though.

I should have pointed out it's call an insertion fee. It's late at night. Are auction insertion fees not included in the free listings?

Auctions come with an insertion fee in most categories for Basic and above stores.

For the short list of categories not subject to insertion fees on auctions check here:

When an item is worth listing at auction format, the seller should be confident it will receive multiple bids first time listing so the small fee shouldn’t really matter, even though it’s annoying as you’d think paying for a Store means you’d have more flexibility with insertions than non-store accounts.

You can track your free listing fees 24/7 in your seller hub in the Promotions tile.

Thanks! It's been so long since I listed anything outside of the collectible category I forgot that many categories are not "free" with a store!

Thanks for the reminder!
