I joined etsy as a seller last year, i designed and created my own jewelry, it went well for a few months until i realized etsy is a cutthroat site where you compete with other sellers.
I started getting notices from etsy support regarding my items, it seems other sellers were afraid of the competition and started accusing me of stealing text and designs, and that was never true. You need to realize that when you sell on etsy you are competing with others who at times can be very cruel. And it seems etsy takes the side of the veteran sellers, leaving us newbies out! And to contact customer support is a nightmare. Takes for ever for them to reply, if they ever reply. My advice is that if you ever plan to sell your crafts online! Stay away from etsy, i now sell on artfire and its great...
