If I subscribe to Vendio Stores and NOT EBAY STORES, what does Ebay charge me for listing Vendio Stores merchandise? Is it Ebay regular listing fees? Where does Ebay make their money for Vendio Stores?

Ebay makes no money off of Vendio Stores. I don't know what eBay charges you to to list to eBay stores.

Vendio store listings do not appear on ebay searches - ebay has nothing to do with Vendio store sales and therefore makes no money on your sales. Ebay makes it hard to sell your Vendio store items through your ebay listings (ie: you can't put a large link to an off-ebay site in your listings) - there is a little link that says "see all my items" and another link when buyer "clicks to enlarge". I think that you have to drive business to your Vendio store by using Vendio checkout which will allow you to offer more items and provides a link to your Vendio store. Vendio does feed your store items to Froogle search engine.
My Vendio store just mirrors my ebay store and I don't use Vendio check-out so I have no idea how many sales come from my Vendio store (I should be receiving a referral credit on the FVF but I have no way of checking that this is done).

Great information. I think I'm finally getting it now. I didn't realize Vendio Stores was COMPLETELY SEPARATE from Ebay.
Now, I'm assuming that if a buyer buys an auction from Ebay, goes through my Vendio Checkout and finds another item to buy in my Vendio Stores, I can combine both these purchases through Vendio and I will be charged by Ebay the Ebay purchase and Vendio the Vendio's Stores purchase. Is that correct? Whew, that was hard.
