Yes, there is a base monthly fee for having a store. I have a "Basic" store, which costs $15.95 per month. The insertion fee I pay for a Fixed Price listing is $0.20. I run them all with a 30 day duration, set to automatically be relisted if unsold (eBay calls it "Good 'Til Cancelled").

Other types of stores have higher monthly fees, but lower insertion fees, and a bunch of other features that aren't of much interest to me. Here's a comparison of different store subscriptions.

The "free 50" I mentioned earlier applies to auction-style listings for sellers who do not have a store subscription. If I want to use the "free 50", I have to use an eBay ID other than the one that has the store.
