My fav customer story is a Customer from Alaska was on vacation in North Carolina. She was walking down a well known board walk when she passed a woman wearing the exact pair of unique earrings she was. They both looked at each other and said in unison ‘MetalRocks’! They contacted me to share the story! I still smile thinking of this lovely bonding!! 💖✨
I had the most beautiful moment the other week. One of my items is a Rainbow Bridge journal for adults and children that I created from scratch in memory of my dogs. The customer sent me a note that put me in tears.. telling me how my journal made her pain more manageable because it made her feel connected at a time where she was so numb and depressed. It filled my soul like I can’t even tell you. She thanked me for creating it. It was a WOW moment for me.
So glad to hear the focus is on removing items that are not handmade or vintage and that they will add assistance in the rare case an authentic item or shop is removed!
Maxwell, I would like to know if all cover photos that are collages will be penalized in the algorithm ratings from now on as per y'all's new suggestions? Not all collages reduce likelihood of a customer buying that item, some increase accurate visibility of product options, not detract from it. If I opt not to change collage style cover photos on some of my items because they work best for me, can I expect that the algorithm will automatically rate these listings lower than others? Can I clear those suggestions from the top of my listing pages, or will they be there until I comply with said suggestions?
Just started my Etsy Shop on 8/16/24! I have a cash budgeting essentials shop :) Selling custom envelopes and savings challenges for cash budgeters. Very happy to be a part of the Etsy community.
I love selling on Etsy! Thanks so much for giving us artists this great opportunity to spread our artwork around! I’m a mom to a very energetic toddler, and i do not want to send him to daycare in order to get a job. This is my job now and you guys made that possible for me. I can’t put into words how much that means to me and my family. Thank you so much!
Could you eliminate the "May Arrive Late" notification that shows up when printing labels when shipping orders days before the end of the processing time?
Hello, and thank you for this event. There’s at least one thing I took away from it to perhaps help my sales. That said, my request/question/situation to Etsy. I’ve had a couple of cases where the seller was very happy in every aspect of their purchase and service, but mistakenly (I’m taking them at their word) gave me a low star rating. As of now and that I’m aware of, there is no way to help correct this issue. It would be nice for Etsy to help the buyer correct their rating. Thanks again!
Hi all! This is Chichi. The name of my store is Laugh Love Tees and I sell casual apparel with uplifting sayings for people who have ADHD & other neurodivergence, and the people that love them. Opened my store in March of this year 😊
It's wonderful to be able to prepare my own designed silver jewelry using 😊 traditional historical techniques and offer it to the world, thank you Etsy.
Really liked the idea of bringing trends in my display vs my product bc they might not be applicable. This way I can join in even though my product isn’t changeable. Thank you!
Many scam messages received recently. Also, I had some buyers who were happy with their purchase but could not leave a review as they checked out as guests. Would be great if those type of clients could also leave a review, as good reviews and proven customer satisfaction are crucial for growth.
I hope you will address hand delivery and why we get dinged on the Star Seller metrics. I would think that is a great sign of customer service. Thank you.
Agreed! Sold three paintings to clients in London and hand delivered them. Clients were very pleased with that, but I couldn’t change the status to “delivered”.
Yes!! Just shipped my orders for the day, I'll get the popcorn ready now! :~) Here we go!

Ps - “rainbow bridge” means it’s a journal about pet loss and grief
