Question about eBay shop

Last month I posted about wanting to open an eBay shop, and was helped a lot on here. I have now opened my eBay shop, but having some problems concerning fees.

I designed a listing using Turbo Lister. I couldn't find any option that would allow me to put the listing into one of my shop categories, so I listed it as normal. Then, within eBay I edited the item and placed it into the relevant shop category.

However, when I check my seller accout, I am still being charged for the item as if it is a normal auction.

Anyone know any reasons for this?

Cheers.

  • Where you went wrong was on the first page of turbo on the 'create a new item' page, there are choices to make either 'auction' 'fixed price' and 'shop' so you mustn't have clicked shop.

    D'oh!

    Thanks for that. Do you know how I can change it now it is already listed, or is it too late?

    Have you updated Turbolister since you opened the shop?

    Yes.

    When I was calculating fees, a message about updates came up, and I downloaded them.
