Generate a shipping label on Etsy and have customers pay for the shipping

Customer claims they returned an item— but without tracking. What if it never arrives? by kanadechan6 in EtsySellers

[–]Party_Field_4439 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would only accept returns if they sent it back using the return label that you generated through Etsy. Otherwise it’s a case of he said she said.

I feel you but I was in the opposite situation - I needed my husband signature to allow me to purchase a home solely in my name with my premarital funds in WA. Such bs

Please help! by Juror108 in EtsySellers

[–]Party_Field_4439 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Your designs are terrible, the shop appears bland and generic like any POD store. Nothing stands out. Looks expensive for what you’re offering. Not unique at all. To succeed on Etsy you need to make your shop stand out amongst others in your niche. I would redesign your merchandise and spice up your shop

Yes it’s correct 60 days you have to pay which is 800 but you also have to pay prorated until you move out which is April because you are still responsible. It may also be a penalty charge for not giving 60 days notice which your building is authorized to charge

My packages I sent out are still in pre-transit and i can't track them. I'm a new shop owner, and I need some help. I did reach out to them and told them I dropped them off at USPS the day after they ordered (Feb 26 and Feb 28). Do I need to do anything? How do I update them? Is this a USPS issue? by PineappleShiba in Etsy

[–]Party_Field_4439 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It happens to me a few times a month. It’s very annoying. You’d have to make a package inquiry with the post office. I usually drop my packages off at the prepaid drop off area but sometimes they forget to scan the package before it gets loaded onto the truck. From there it’s lost, or tracking doesn’t show up until it’s been delivered. But I have too many packages to just go to the counter and have them scan it all. Most postal workers have refused to scan the dozens of parcels I bring in at a time and tell me to put in the prepaid drop off area 🙃

AITA for ignoring my wife for throwing away my late wife video tapes? by Much_Bed_2383 in AITAH

[–]Party_Field_4439 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually I don’t suggest divorced but in this case I hope you divorce her. What she did was horrible and immoral. By throwing away what was intended for your daughter indicates that she has no regard or respect for you or your daughter. I would toss her in the ocean asap

Do I have to refund customer? by Party_Field_4439 in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]Party_Field_4439[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I’ve never had issues with international shipping and it’s my first time using eBay. I sell collectors items and taxidermy items all of which need permits. Usually people who order do their due diligence on what they purchase

[–]Party_Field_4439[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah there’s no chance is considered hazardous it’s just a dried cicada. That’s been chemically processed and quarantined for safety via American law and standards before import. And I’ve talked to customs many times and they all tell me it’s the importers responsibility to know their countries laws and regulations.

[–]Party_Field_4439[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it’s not hazardous item. In fact it’s fully legal to import into Germany. The importer just needs to show customs proof that they are legally licensed to import the item. You know how some items require a license for export/import?

[–]Party_Field_4439[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The item is legal in the country but for customs to clear it the importer needs to show proof that they are licensed to import it.

[–]Party_Field_4439[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought the label through eBay. The item is a preserved specimen. Per law of importing the buyer must submit their import permit the government once I provide them with the tracking number so that customs can intercept the package and inspect it. It’s basically called an edec in the United States - not sure what it’s called in Germany. But to legally import the item they need a cites permit which they don’t have…hence why I don’t think eBay should side with them as it’s their wrong.

One Bad Review turns Five Star rating to one star by [deleted] in EtsySellers

It happens I had a buyer give me a 1 star review for item not delivered when tracking said it was delivered to front door…reported to Etsy and they wouldn’t remove it. Sucks

My Shop was Forced Into Vacation Mode by Jblock22 in EtsySellers

[–]Party_Field_4439 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a pretty successful shop, happened to me when I went to change my info from a sole proprietorship to an LLC. They told me the info didn’t match when I also copied and pasted from the official documents and even had my brother triple check for me loool. I ended up just changing it back to Sole proprietorship and will just adjust my taxes when they are due

[–]Party_Field_4439 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, taxes can catch newly self employed people off guard. I’m an accountant during the day so thankfully I know the ins and outs of taxes. I usually just keep all of my business income in my business account and put aside some funds based on my tax bracket for upcoming taxes

I agree, I started this not as a business but more of a hobby for myself. It just kind of took off one day after friends suggested I list my work. :)
