I was thinking of creating a Auction watch store... I plan on using their service for a store only... Can anyone tell me if I would get charged for a picture hosting for a store only..
Is there any pros or cons for using auction watch to host my store.. I cannot seem to find any info regarding the number of items I can hold in my store..

rewasko, I am a retired Antique Mall owner and I am very pleased with the AW Store setup. I don't expect fast results. I believe it will take some time (like any business) to build a strong customer base, but AW has given us the tools to work with, at an affordable price. I have tried other online stores, but I didn't like the per item listing fees for my type of merchandise. I like the idea of a low monthly fee and the ability to add as much merchandise as I want. I don't have a problem with paying AW a commission on sales. I think that's only fair. I figure there is nothing to lose with the AW Store. I think it will be up to me to make it work. I believe it will be good to have another outlet, besides auctions, and I really don't want to maintain my own website at this time. I am happy with my store.

Compare AW Store fees to Website hosting and Shopping cart fees. I think its a better deal, if you have the choice to choose. I had a website set up already, so the added charge was not what I was looking for. I liked it better without the monthly fees (who wouldn't), but at least with a monthly fee, AW's responsibility to upkeep on the code will be at a higher standard.
