We have been told that the only way to actually "survive" on ebay, is to open a "store", as long as you have enough items to sell. Being really new to ebay, is it really cheaper to have a store? We have been a member for quite some time, but, just getting into the selling end more these days. Now, if you open a store, do you have to take paypal, or, one of their "secured" payment methods just mentioned? Without prior checking, is it cheaper to list items with a store, and do you save money on the "final sale" fees?

Thanks, I know some of ya'll have alot of experience with this. We can sure use some advice, and, as always, usually come here for your opinions. We are also looking at Jackpot, really like the people there, and the site, as well. Thanks for your suggestions, and advice, in advance!
