Etsy sucks!

They charge a listing fee regardless if the item sells or not.
Which is bad enough but there's ZERO traffic. It doesn't matter what you list you're expected to promote the sale yourself.

So frankly I said FUCK IT and printed up a bunch of flyers and held a garage sale. Total cost was printer ink, paper, scotch tape and a walk around town.

I do a clear out (garage sale) apx every 6 weeks in combination with Ebay. Because Etsy only works for those that supplement their monthly government issued food stamps.

Like one of those fat broads who's just drunk... A white trailer trash skank that spends her day watching television evangelists and makes Jesus crosses from broken beer bottle glass to sell on Etsy.
