Has anyone here ever actually bought/sold anything on Etsy? I'm tempted to start up an Etsy site but I'm worried that it might be a waste of time.

I don't have the answer, but I have been wondering the same thing. I'll be curous what others have to say.

I run an etsy shop at yarnigans.etsy.com and I shop at other shops all the time. I've had my store for a little over 2 years and it's done great. I highly recommend it, it's a lot of fun, and doesn't take up much time.

HI have done quite well from my Etsy shop with my artwork, and am planning on adding crochet to another shop there.

Hi~ I am a newbie here, just joined this morning!

I have a store on ebay and etsy. I have been selling on ebay for over 4 yrs and just opened the etsy store last month. It is easy to open the etsy store, the fees are so much lower, no auctions-just your set price, and the listings are for 4 months at a time, until the item sells.

I am looking forward to adding more items in the next couple of weeks~~after school is out, graduation,etc--lol!


Hope this helps! Everyone I have 'met' on etsy has been very helpful and supportive!

I love Etsy. You probably won't make a fortune unless you're willing to post new items frequently and put a lot of work into promoting yourself. But the listing prices are super cheap and Etsy has been getting a lot of buzz in the DIY community. I'd say go for it.

I'm thinking about an Etsy store as well. Crocheting is my bliss and I don't know why I'm reluctant to sell my crafts.


People always say how much they love my crocheted jewelry any way...

Hi, I have just opened a shop on etsy. still haven't sold anything. It's a bit unnerving waiting, but it seems easy to use and friendly. Any tips on how to get a sale?

I have just got an email saying that someone added to this post and commented on my shop but I can't see the post here. Anyway thank you whoever you are and if the bugs here (or is it me!) get ironed out I might see who you are.
