I was Etsy seller and had thousands of sales but their employee Lohan began hating me after reading my post where I told my story about bad buyers who tried to steal items from my Etsy shop. Lohan closed discussion in very unfair way because wished that public never know about thieves on Etsy. Soon after that I got the disgusting buyer bliss51 (M. Willems) who purchased a fashion skirt from my shop to wear it for Halloween, then she decided to steal a skirt by opening fake dispute, she falsified info and used vulgar slang. Etsy employee Lohan helped a thief to steal skirt instead of banning her for harassment. And he closed my shop only because of his personal hate to me, I sure that it was only because of my nationality. I did nothing wrong. Lohan is full of envy one who hate honest sellers! Such have to be banned from work in customer support. I never waste my money on helpless promotions and he/she closed my shop because was unable to force me to waste my money on stupid promotions.
Also, I noticed s few times that Etsy hides items from public. A sellers can see what they listed but buyers don t. I have read in discussions that many sellers have same problem. Etsy hides items when sellers have reached a limit that Etsy never tell. Someone called this Etsy rotation .
In 2010 Etsy made a terribly unfair space craft competition. They promised money as grand prize and a trip to Texas as 2nd prize. As professional artist with experience of 120 art shows in USA & Europe, I submitted my museum quality painting and a few more items. In 2 days a lot of newly created accounts began listing of cheap items that had crazy prices. It was made by Etsy employees to flood the competition and hide my items to prevent me from winning, I sure in that. When I removed my items from competition because I understood that winners will be Etsy employees s friends or relatives, rules of competition and prizes were changed. And most of newly created accounts also removed their items from competition.
Etsy is the worst platform for sellers. Unfair rules, rude customer support, terrible employees who help bad buyers to steal items.
Etsy changed the ways to pay sellers. It is terrible to wait when their crazy, slow system transfers money from Etsy account to bank account. Once it took 8 days to receive my money!
Phone support is extremely slow and there no interpreters to translate to other languages. Only English and Spanish.
I ll never sell on Etsy anymore and recommend to avoid using this site. Because of Lohan and similar to that employee.
