Ebay, Etsy, Craigslist, kijiji and Facebook

I've got a family member that used to make fair coin selling things on the Internet but it's been about a year or so since they've managed to sell a single thing.

Their Ebay account has a perfect score of hundreds of positive feedbacks but now no one buys anything. They've tried craigslist, kijiji and even facebook sale groups but again from what I understand they've sold 1 item last summer and nothing since.

Now they're on to Etsy and they're getting the same circle jerk. Only this time it's a bunch of bunk about list more items on Etsy with promises that they will suddenly start selling like gang busters. Also same bullshit excuses about "do better content' in the listings.

Frankly I suspect that these sites are being just as corrupt as a porn site. They're using bot traffic, fake posters, shills, etc. Etsy is in my opinion is literally copying every dirty trick that a porno webmaster will use to create the illusion of being popular.

If you ask me we're now into Web 4.0 (aka. The fake Internet)
