But they haven't bothered to inform sellers of that - do they assume all sellers are reading the forums? I'd have no idea about these changes if I didn't read the forums.<br /><br />And yeah, they sure have no problem sending me a reminder of my bill on time every month. Yet somehow informing me of changes to the rules is going to take weeks? But all items posted from now on have to conform to those rules? I swear to god Etsy is run like a high school club, not a business.<br /><br />Although since they didn't enforce the OLD rules, I'm not sure why I should give a rat's ass about following these new rules.grumpynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286747608538901945.post-43806516420036459262009-10-29T04:06:49.752-04:002009-10-29T04:06:49.752-04:00Pumping up dinosaurs, that's what they do all ...Pumping up dinosaurs, that's what they do all day... *sigh*<br /><br />And emails taking 'a few weeks' is just complete BS and I don't understand why anyone would say 'Ok, thanks for letting us know Etsy'...Evelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13022820658897225045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286747608538901945.post-21952163166748497822009-10-29T00:02:10.613-04:002009-10-29T00:02:10.613-04:00No email here, either shops; I'd delete it any...No email here, either shops; I'd delete it anyway.

Still suffering from an Etsy addiction. You may think I'm a full-blown cupcake-eating Kool-aid swigging sycophant. I'd say, notsomuch. I'm aware of the problems on the site, but I still like a lot about it.<br /><br />BUT I'M UNDERSTANDING THIS SITE MORE AND MORE!<br /><br />The new D&Ds (sorta kinda) explain tag abuse. Yet, a number of Etsy faves featured in Gift Guides, Storque Articles and what-not are guilty of tag abuse. Until today, I didn't realize I was doing it!<br /><br />And I'm not sure I'm going to stop.<br /><br />I'm offering an honest product at a fair price with good customer service; so, I'm just trying every which way to get people in my shops without 1) relisting ALL the time or 2) spending $600 bucks a month advertising on other sites to get traffic on Etsy's site so they can *maybe* find me!<br /><br />Gee, that last cupcake didn't taste as great as I thought.Aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12607856222652055505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286747608538901945.post-48643265886963750542009-10-28T19:38:03.687-04:002009-10-28T19:38:03.687-04:00It's a site for fools: sucked in.It's a site for fools: sucked in.FOOLISHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286747608538901945.post-42417788207953486372009-10-28T19:15:48.740-04:002009-10-28T19:15:48.740-04:00AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA:

Come on. <br /><br />While I understand points of views of theirs, I never understood why they would have a discussion thread last week and not change anything. What's the point? <br /><br />The new DD's almost make Etsy seem more unlike a venue. The Paypal/shipping policy is so wrong. The "only way you'll get a refund of fees for canceling a sale is one of these 4 things" is a complete 180 from what has been noted before. Now the whole supply thing.<br /><br />What goes on Etsy? What is coming in the future? And must you really take a valuable engineer from doing what needs to be fixed just so you won't have spam on the Dorque?onagainoffagainnoreply@blogger.com
