    I will just say on actually selling on etsy, you best have a product that is very unique, an that comes from one I know with much experience dealing with them. According to her they were great before they got super big, not it's basically a snipe fest of who can make the cheapest product, an lots of similar things. For example, my wife does purses a lot. She won't touch etsy, to many people, an their prices are crazy low, or super high. I looked into it when she asked me, an basically said.."Make your own page, or get your stuff in stores, an other places to sell them."

    The lady who I mention above, is one who's opinion I trust when it comes to crafty things. She's very good with her work, an I have no reason to doubt her. She used to use them an now won't go near the site.

    YMMV, so don't go throwing mud at me. Just my opinion, an hers. Maybe we should start a new thread on etsy so we don't pollute the awesome sticky..? Just asking, put down your pitchforks an torches.

Onions have layers!" - Shrek "Not everyone likes onions. You know what else has layers? Cakes. Everyone likes cakes!" Donkey "Ogres are NOT like cakes!" - Shrek "You know what everyone likes? Parfaits. Ever met someone who didn't like parfaits..?" - Donkey
