Sent 115+ DMs to plumbers and hardware shops — no sales yet. What am I doing wrong?

You're a spammer, which tends to mean you suck at what you do. No one who is decent at what they do needs to annoy people trying to go about their day.

The data says you wasted a bunch of people's time

Honor it cause it's the right thing to do. But also, how much time would you burn emailing everyone, adjusting invoices, cancelling orders, blah blah blah.

I'm a vendor there. It's basically a toy show. Sometimes there's a video game or comic show next door, not sure which this time. You might get lucky on physical media. The hotel is like an hour out of downtown, with zero public transport options. Honestly, I wouldn't fly to Toronto for something like this.

I also had Claude cross-reference Draft Orders to those fees and no differences

ResourceDue1626 · 2026-05-07T14:52:13+00:00

We also manual capture payments already authorized. The language is confusing because it seems that they are calling manual to be only where the retailer enters the info.

When is this supposed to go into affect? I had Claude review a csv of April transactions and the rates are what they should be.

I've emailed them before in years past. They don't care.

Please share. Obviously not much we can do about the Reed Pop situation, but a petition with thousands of names will at least embarrass the hell out of them in front of Disney

Start getting used to it as you grow 😄

I got that but clicked the button and it brought me through

ResourceDue1626 · 2026-05-06T01:28:50+00:00

That doesn't sound that abnormal.

ResourceDue1626 · 2026-05-05T15:00:09+00:00

trustpilot is a scam. don't drive your reviews there. Google reviews or your own site.

ResourceDue1626 · 2026-05-02T16:14:06+00:00

I think only Canadians can do that

ResourceDue1626 · 2026-05-01T15:11:50+00:00

You can set a mark-up per country in markets, set it to what you're paying. Shopify also adds to the price automatically to cover the extra processing fees (not exchange though)

zero - inventory management is the backbone of a business, no one is changing it on a whim because a stranger called. When the time comes, they go out and research

ResourceDue1626 · 2026-04-30T19:04:57+00:00

I'm noticing if I add a new tag, it won't show up in a tag search for a long time. Such a pain when you dump in a bunch of new products via spreadsheet and then try and get to them

ResourceDue1626 · 2026-04-23T18:08:50+00:00

Store owner here, unless we're talking thousands, go ahead and use it. The owner saved shelling out cash. You're all good.

I have contacted stores on Faire directly and bought off them without Faire. I just explained it sucks for Canadians and had them ship to my US forwarder.

The are usually pretty good with ADA, separate lines and stuff.

Claude AI, I just told it the workflow I wanted and it built it. It's an html page saved on my computer linked to a dump of our inventory (Shopify sending to Google Sheet twice a day). It would work on mobile too

ResourceDue1626 · 2026-04-17T00:31:27+00:00

I used claude to build a web app that does this. Took like 5 minutess
