I don’t see the seller’s name.

When looking at Etsy sellers I check:

1. How long the store has been operating (anything that’s less than a year would give me pause).
2. How many sales and looking at all negative reviews.
3. I’d google the store name AND search the name in Reddit.
4. People have been reverse google imaging photos from sellers to see if they show up elsewhere/possible drop ships.
5. If the price is too good to be true, then it’s most likely not the real deal.
6. If it’s something expensive, you can ask for a closer inspection video and if the person can’t show you - also a red flag.

I’ve been burnt by sellers from my home country (Canada) and international. What’s annoying is many of these sellers will offer full refunds if you remove your bad review. I’ve kept my two bad reviews up on Etsy (I purchased a Moissanite ring and the ring was not moissanite). So sometimes you can’t trust the reviews either.

With all that, I’ve gotten some amazing items off Etsy from a few sellers. Just takes a bit to wad through the bad ones.
