Shoutout to Wheezy getting in the way of the intro of the video! Thanks for watching, if you sell on Etsy put your shop name in the comments so I can check it out. :)
Just a couple of tips from an Etsy vintage seller. You said one of your items are not really vintage … on Etsy vintage has to be 20+ years old. You are not allowed to resell newer items. Antique is items 100+ years old. So those shakers were vintage not antique. To some people it might matter. And your profits… you need to either buy for lower prices or more importantly sell for higher price. Doubling or tripling on low priced items … you are going to work a lot for almost no profit once you have paid taxes. I did the same when I started but if you could skip that part, you will do so much better. I wish you well
Thanks for the tips Tina! Yes, I make sure to make that distinction if it isn't antique but rather just vintage. I appreciate the pricing help as well! 🙂
Hi Alyssa! Came across your video! I'm a new Etsy shop owner myself and also selling vintage home decor as well as up-cycled thrifted finds :) My shop name is Homeyinspirations.
I can see my sold items through my backend dashboard, but Etsy removes items from the shop if they are sold out. You are able to re-add them to your shop very easily but obviously only if you have more in stock. I hope that helps!

I think you're doing really well actually. Lots of sales.

Is there a way to look up sold items on Etsy?
