If I’m designing a magazine, let’s say for arguments sake a 36 pager. Am I allowed to include magazine ads inside it that I have already created and selling on the market place? Will that affect the pricing for my magazine template in terms of higher/low price?

I don’t think you are allowed to sell the same item twice unless it is in a bundle.

Cheers

You should be allowed to do that yes, however, my personal advice to you would be to keep them separate.

You can then upsell your customers by giving them a link to your magazine ads, if that’s what they want.

My assumption would be that if someone is searching for a magazine template, they want it to layout articles etc, if they want a magazine ad, they’ll search for that instead, right?

So, by including the magazine ads too, you’ll be pushing up the price of your template, which could maybe put off potential buyers.

None of that is fact, it’s just my opinion :)

Thanks Q&E. Some good points there for me to consider. On the flip side people might like the fact that it the template also includes ads which might be handy to them. I was thinking of adding them in but not hyping it up so much on the preview image. Well at least I have got something to think about!
