I have had an eBay store since about 1 1/2 months ago. Sales have been pretty good (as compared to my AW store). The eBay store "rent" has been long paid for in the number of sales I have had.
Right now I would estimate the eBay store adds about 10% extra in sales for me on average per week. But as more and more of my customers see it, they are buying from it.
The key seems to be having items in the store complimentary to the auctions I have going on (what you have on auctions is what advestises your eBay store). That way people looking for certain type of things are drawn to your store by the same type of auctions they are looking at.
The other thing I "push" in my auction listings is that the additional S&H cost for adding an item to ship together (from either another auction or eBay store sale) typically only a small amount to the total S&H fee.
