ebay username now shows " this shop is no longer available"

After 21 years on ebay I opened a basic ebay shop costing £19.99 ( for the last 5 months) but after ebay brought in the Payment Protection Fee adding 4% plus 75p to each item sold for buyers , I closed my ebay shop in protest ,  I thought everything would just go back when I click on my user name it says  "sorry this shop was not found" obviously I still want to keep the ebay user name I have established over 21 years...............Any advice how I can do this ...........Thanks

Thanks for the reply BUT that is not the problem , the problem now is .................When I click on my  user ID , it now says  " sorry this shop was not found" instead of showing my feedback/items sold /followers

To add that if I click on your profile you still have the shop option on there and when clicked its shows your items for sale!

With all your new items listed, you should be correctly registered as a business seller. 

When done so, buyer fee won't apply.
