Ah, ok. What I'd really love would be a no-fixed-cost high-transaction-fee plan. It would be fine to pay 5% or more in fees to test out a store idea before committing to a more expensive plan.

The closest we have to that is our Starter plan. If you factor in the two-week trial, you get 6 weeks to find market validation for your idea at a cost of only $14. It's a pretty reasonable expense.
That's more than generous for someone who's launching a store as a full-time job. My use case is more "we produce some hobby stuff and would like to start selling a few products online as a side-side-project and see if it can grow". My market validation will take months or years, not weeks. This isn't a startup... :) I can see where that market isn't really attractive though.
