r/Etsy

Purchased an expensive item but when I received it, it was not as described. Seller is from another country. They said they would send me a label but never did. After waiting a while, I opened a case with Etsy describing all this. I was waiting for Etsy to step in but the seller just refunded and closed the case but they are now messaging me saying they will provide a label to send the item back. However, the item is flammable and the postage service in my country (germany) won’t accept it.

What do I do?

Hi everyone! I recently started creating digital products inspired by an African / Y2K aesthetic. https://builtbybonsu.etsy.com

I’m currently focusing on things like:

• Home Decor (rugs, clocks, wall art)
• Phone Accessories
• Clothing and much more!

I’d really love honest feedback on the overall vibe and what types of products you think people would actually buy in this niche.

Do you think this aesthetic has a market?

Would you be more drawn to posters, invitations, wallpapers, or other decor printables?

I’m trying to build something unique and would genuinely appreciate opinions and ideas from this community.

Can I please have some criticism and positive feedback about my shop. I’m hoping to get one customer a week to start but I’ve only had two orders. I’d love some help in getting my business out there.

I’m struggling to convert despite showing up on first pages across a number of search terms.

What can I improve on my images to help gain trust?

What can I improve regarding description to make people add to basket?

Is there anything more I could do with my titles to optimise them?

Hello, I am new to Reddit, so hopefully I am doing this right. I was wondering if there is any artist on Etsy who can do custom pet rabbit portraits. I can only seem to find cats and dogs. I am looking for a realism style, but I am open to more stylized work. If you know an artist or you are an artist, please let me know.

Okay so I've never sold on Etsy before and I'm trying to create a shop to sell items made by me and my grandmother. The problem Ive reached is the account is in my name but I don't have a bank account. Will it be possible for me to use my grandmothers bank account? She deals with the money because she has a bank account. Please help I'm not sure what to do.

Hey everyone,

I posted here recently asking for feedback on my Etsy shop and got some very honest responses. I took the advice and made a bunch of changes. I rewrote my descriptions to sound more natural, improved my titles, added color charts, disclosed my production partner, and tried to make the shop feel more cohesive overall.

I know it’s still not perfect, but I’d really appreciate another honest look. Does it feel more trustworthy now? Anything that still stands out as a problem?

Thanks again to everyone who took the time to help last time.

Looking for feedback about my shop

hi I'm looking for feedback about my shop. I sell mini crochet food keychains and earrings as well as mini granny square earrings. I've been running it for a little over 6 months now and have not made any sales other than friends and family. What I'm looking for is

1. understanding whether its just that my products themselves are not good/just something no one wants to buy or 2. if there's a logistical reason for no sales.

I've looked at my SEO and tags, etsy says that they are good. I've added videos showcasing each item like the sellers handbook suggested.

I've recently added shipping to the USA, as lots of people shop on etsy from the USA. I live in Canada and stated in both a shop announcement and the descriptions of all items that I know ship there and will pay all duties/ tariffs on my end. So I'm just kind of stuck with what else to do. Any feedback would be appreciated. https://nessascrochetnook.etsy.com

Hi, I recently made a purchase on Etsy for the first time in over a decade and immediately realized it was shipping to a veryyyy old address I no longer receive mail at. I went through Etsy support to contact seller right away with the correct address, which they said they'd fix.

Fast-forward a few weeks later -- I get a message saying that the address change was unsuccessful. Once the goods are shipped, it is beyond their control, and they left the USPS support number.

Is it even possible for me to reroute a USPS package?? Or is this the seller's responsibility? I'm not trying to blame anyone, but just figure out what to do.

For reference, the item is a $200 ring -- so not exactly something I wanna just shrug my shoulders about and hope for the best.

I'm looking into buying a phone case on Etsy but the creator is from America. Will I have to pay a fee to get it into the country or does Etsy handle that? I know I need to pay for shipping but is there any hidden costs?

I decided to buy some items from Etsy, but I noticed the high shipping costs. I tried using coupon codes from CouponFollow, but none of them worked, so I ended up not buying anything. Any suggestions on how to save on there?

I offer free shipping in my shop, and in the US I never see a difference in ship time between USPS Priority Mail and Ground Advantage but the price difference can be anywhere between $5 to $15 for Priority!

How can I setup the shipping so that only Ground Advantage is an option?

Je viens de créer un compte Etsy et de publier mon premier produit (template digital).

Quand je recherche mon propre produit sur Etsy, je ne le retrouve pas même en scrollant jusqu'à la fin.

Est-ce normal ?

Je n'ai eu aucune vue, rien. Je me demande si je n'ai pas un problème avec le listing.

Voici le lien : https://www.etsy.com/de-en/listing/4489271426/wedding-invitations-wedding-weekend?ref=listings_manager_grid

Pourriez-vous me donner votre feedback sincère ? qu'est-ce qui ne va pas ?

Des tips pour améliorer ? erreurs à ne pas faire pour mon prochain listing ?

C'est dommage car j'ai passé énormément de temps à concevoir les template en voulant avoir un rendu parfait comme si je les faisais pour moi même.

Merci beaucoup pour vos retours constructifs
