San s.

Tried to sell on etsy but no buyers. I sell handmade vintage upscaled jewelry. I have lots of hits, likes and followers on instagram. The only traffic and sales are from there. Why am I paying Etsy? Not worth it setting up my own website. I learned traffic shows up not through sorts but by paying for ads at $30 a clip. Etsys reputation is decreasing because people are selling junk from overseas. Not vintage, not handmade just junk.

When I signed up it was easier to qualify for surveys but I soon realized the surveys were 'crashing' or 'freezing' after they had most of the dstas they needed. I was kickjed out of one for being a democrat so I'm wondering who is funding these. Anyway I always copy the number of the survey so when they crash or freeze I still get credit but now I no longer qualify for surveys. I get one every other day. This site makes money by driving customers into sleazy sites offering free stuff but actually they get $$ when you purchase stuff. Son initially its easy and then its difficult. I was getting a gift card every few days now it takes a week nor two because I don't buy things. I've been st 400 points for a week when I get to 500 pts I'm cashing out and sweepstacking the remains. Waste of time I'd rather do ebay
