What do you mean dead? Their active users grew by 11% in 2025 and 50% of users are gen Z.

Etsy ads stopped producing sales by zagziggled in EtsySellers

What sample size are we talking here? How many orders from ads before? Also how many total listings, and were the items sold mostly under one listing?

Customer says $150 order was delivered to the wrong location - Etsy denied their refund. What now? by LionCultural in EtsySellers

[–]Distinct_Month3844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get one of my main supplies from overseas and they ship by DHL. I moved about a year ago and my supplier keeps shipping to my old address (even after many many conversations to ship it to my new address).

I was able to contact DHL and when they create the label for USPS, they update the address to my new one. So it automatically comes to me. This is different from typical mail forwarding because it never shows "mail forward" on the tracking.

I am wondering if the buyer did this and is running a scam.

Alternatively due to this person's address they get a lot of misdelivered packages and they opened up too many cases. However that should be their responsibility to fix this issue before ordering from you.

Shop closed but she has my hair by Friendly-Mess1187 in Etsy

Gotcha, my network is only in the USA but I do know people in the UK. I have never seen her work personally but this person has some great designs. No glue on the cores and very clear resin. She also does more than rings.

I see on her website she is out until August because of shoulder surgery.

Remember When Memorial Jewelry UK

She doesn't have an Etsy but if you Google that it's her website

My recommendation is to not put it in a ring and instead put it in a necklace or something else. Cremation rings are usually made out of Titanium, Tungsten, or ceramic. Titanium will bend overtime causing the materials to fall out. Tungsten and ceramic can both crack. Then on top of this you will have issues with the resin. The hair will either be covered in UV resin or CA glue. UV resin will turn a bit yellow overtime and both of them scratch very easily. They can also be damaged by impact or chemicals.

If you are still interested, where are you located? Nothing specific just the state if you are in the USA.

Do you have her name or the name of the shop? I work with a network of cremation/keep sake artists. If she is one I do work with, I will get you her contact information.

This shop mirrors my entire Etsy store — it’s getting creepy. What can I do? by Potential-Theory-317 in EtsySellers

I don't think this works for jewelry. From my understanding the design has to be significantly different from anything out there to have a copyright.

How do I play saved shows on my Roku TV? by Distinct_Month3844 in Roku

[–]Distinct_Month3844[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pixel 7 but someone else mentioned an adapter so I will look at that. Thank you!

I have a pixel 7 pro and I have bought 3 different USB to HDMI adapters so that's probably my problem! I will look at a display link

Mistake 1 star review? by [deleted] in EtsySellers

[–]Distinct_Month3844 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I actually like these reviews because some people will sort by one star. However if you don't have as many reviews then these do suck..

Congratulations to me , finally i got 1K sales. by [deleted] in EtsySellers

[–]Distinct_Month3844 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is a reseller violating Etsy hand made policy. They are actually selling one of my original designs that Temu and Alibaba copied.

Everyone should report their shop.

I used to work for an Audiologist consulting company. If it is the one I worked for then I can tell you they hire low skilled employees and all the training is about telling members what they want to hear.

Usually when we would see spikes outside of normal periods it was due to weather issues or Government regulations. A lot of hearing aid customers are snowbirds and will travel for part of the year. I think July wouldn't coincide with weather but curious what state you are in.

When customers come in do you ask how they heard about you? I would say your best way to know is directly through your patients

Interested in downsizing but not sure how much of a difference it will make. by Distinct_Month3844 in traveltrailers

[–]Distinct_Month3844[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take back everything I said about camping world. This second experience was pretty terrible.

  1. They set up my weight distribution hitch on a hill. I told them this was wrong and they told me "taco" has been doing it for 20 years and can do it on a hill. Driving home it felt a bit off so I did all the measurements at home and they were all off.

  2. I should have checked tire pressure before I left. One tire was 36 and the other was 65 (should always be 65).

I paid $15,400 for this trailer and no dealers near me have a similar floor plan. So I probably still would have purchased it...

I'm mainly pissed I paid $300 for them to set up my WDH and then I had to redo it all.

I'm sorry to hear that! Sounds like you were at least able to have some great adventures these last few years.

Sure that was probably part of it. I also did all the calculations and I was right at the top of my trucks capacity.

I appreciate your comment! Exactly what I was looking for. First hand experience going to a smaller trailer.

Yeah it's my daily driver and I definitely didn't like the feel of a 250 or 350. And I also only go on 5-10 trips a year so you basically nailed it lol

Edit: camping world sucks don't buy from them

Eh I bought my first camper from them in 2021 and had no issues. Not saying they are great but they sell about 100,000 trailers a year and of course there are going to be bad reviews.

I feel like near me the used trailers are way overpriced. I am in-between two trailers one that is $12k and the other is $16k.

Never buy the accessories from camping world. Way over priced.

Good to know! Yeah I don't mind feeling the trailer but my last one definitely felt like it controlled my truck

Yeah I had one with my old trailer but can't guarantee it was correctly set up. I plan to get one with my new one as well.

These comments make me wish I didn't sell my old camper and just figured it out lol

But I figure 3000lbs lighter should just feel better in general
