No. Having a store doesn't increase how many templates Ebay will let you have.
To do that you need to consider a 3rd party software to create listings. I use TurboLister but that is an Ebay program that is slated for retirement sometime in the future, so you can't get that one anymore. But you can Google listing tools and find all kinds of them out there.
Here are the things you get with a Store.

That's a shame about turbolister. Do you know what program you're going to use next?
I took another peek around the net and inkfrog looks like the best fit for what I need. With their Small Plan ($11/mo), I can save 300 templates at a time. I've got more researching to do before I make up my mind.
I appreciate your help.
God Bless!
No I have to say I have not picked one yet. They were suppose to retire Turbolister a couple years ago and we are still plugging along. I have almost 2000 templates, so I really don't want to give this program up. It works very well for my needs. I'm likely to put of selecting another program until I'm forced to make a move.

Call EBay, but then ask to talk to the tech department.
I still use TL and will continue to do so. And yes they are supporting it. But they aren't upgrading and/or improving it. Also as far as I know they don't want new downloads of the program as they still intend to retire it, they just ran into problems in giving us certain features in the Seller Hub to replace it.

The infrog el cheapo plan allows me to have 300 at a time for $10 a month. I had been using AuctionTamer and that worked well for me for years but is no longer updated.
When the prices for my stuff fell through the floor, I took 8 years off in hopes that prices would return to where they were. No such luck!
Now prices are still in the dumper and the shipping fees are insane. But I need to sell down my inventory...way too much stuff.Best of luck finding a new program. 2000 templates! I don't envy you.
I really should have worded that better. That was my mistake.
I keep a copy of all my craft listings in TL [TurboLister], I don't do that on my fragrance listings. That is what the majority of my stored items are in TL.
My templates are just the basic listing for each category and sub category I sell in. That is far fewer and would most likely be covered with 50 or so. In my templates I do not have anything specific to any given product stated in the listing. It is just all my TOS [terms of sale], I set up my ISBs [item specific boxes] and a basic outline of my opening description paragraph and a few others things. But nothing specific to any one product.
I then take a template and copy it when I have the need to create a listing. I just fill in the blanks add pics and away I go.
Sorry I really should have been more specific in my other post.
