Today, I thought that I’d try to reach out to the Etsy readers and let them know what they are missing by relying solely on an Etsy store for income. The truth is that Etsy users are at a major disadvantage when it comes to selling and marketing goods to the end customer compared to shops that own their own website and domain.

Agreed. Batch loads are ruining the shopping experience on Ebay. One search and hundreds of the exact same item and description now appear. Etsy isn't as bad but may get there soon enough

Hi Steve.

I've noticed batch loads on eBay, too - someone tries to sell their lute, then the music stores almost instantly bury it. The used lute is the ONE different lute in the stream - the ONE interesting one (because it's not a cheapie hot off the press, it's hand-made, maybe 20 years old). It's both transparent & pathetic.
