I have had little success with the vendio store over the last few months. The 2 sales I did get will not make up for the monthly fee.
Is anyone having better luck with the ebay store option? I am wondering if I should spend the money.

Can't reply because I only have an eBay store which we are VERY pleased with - BUT you have to promote it with your eBay postings if you expect to really move items. We have had an eBay store for about a year.

I have a link to my Ebay Store in my Ebay ads. I have had only one sale from the store in a 6 week period. I have approx. 100 items listed in the store. Any suggestions?

Saddly the one sale in six weeks per 100 items sounds about average because ebay does nothing to promote the searching of ebay search items. They expect the store owner to have to run regular auctions to promote only his store. There is an ebay stores search function and seperate search engine but it requires going into the advanced search engine section and most ebayers never do that.
With well over six million items in the stores it is often well worth the search. If you collect certain items then it is really worth the time as the stores have many items that can not be listed over and over while looking for a certain collector. There are many items in the stores that are not in the regular auction and at great prices.
