@darrsberry: Where else do creative people sell their products? I know some how this is probably my fault that etsy isnt paying me out, im sure theres a fine print im missing but it is a bummer! #etsyfail #etsy #shopsmall
Omg I browse on Etsy so much. You’re telling me the artists have to PAY every time I click to check out their work?!?

Any time I see a listing say its an ad/promoted by etsy I don't click on that listing but search for the actual shop because I learned they take money from the seller 😭

Yep, Etsy is out for me now. Ridiculous I can’t browse without it costing the maker.

Not all but a lot of us artists have our own websites! If you see something on Etsy you’re thinking of getting, check to see if the artist has their own shop first! It’s also usually cheaper

I use Mercari. You get to keep the WHOLE amount! Just pay $2-3 to transfer funds. It’s great!

I’m so glad you mentioned this about the click through. Because I’ll click through some Etsy pages over and over because I love window shopping. I didn’t know the artist is paying for me to do that 😬

Try tedooo! I’ve never used it to sell but I know a lot of artists are moving there. You can use to sell work or just as a platform to connect to other artists

I used to have a small handmade business and I stopped using Etsy entirely for this reason. The fees are INSANE

this is why I started my own website. they weren't sending any traffic my way and took all the profit

I feel this. Etsy loves their hidden fees but I worry if I have my own website it won’t get any traction and I’ll just be wasting money 😭

galaxydoedesigns :
you have to opt in to ads it's not something they do automatically cause you have to set the price. most of my "fees" come from shipping but that's cause Etsy thumps the whole sale+ shipping together

Wow. I’m hoping the algorithm brings me back to whatever platform is good to their vendors.
