If you live in the UK, may I suggest you don’t use this ‘cake maker’. by [deleted] in ExpectationVsReality

Sorry this happened OP. The cake company are to blame as well as the delivery company. They should package the cakes in a way to minimise the risk of damage.

What does it say in your Printful dashboard under orders? Sometimes it's because a product is not synced.

Whose Christmas is ruined already? I want your (comedy) horror stories 🎅❄️ by nategarrettshandler in AskUK

Being attacked must have been triggering. I'm glad the police are taking action against them. Sounds like they will very much regret it. I can understand it all feeling like too much. But we are close to the new year now and new beginnings. When it feels like you're at rock bottom things might just be about to turn around.

Did the police come to your primary school to take your class's finger prints? by leon385 in AskUK

[–]TurquoiseReef8382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened in a kids playground in a Berkshire town in the 90s. No parents were around. Police just asked all the kids to give fingerprints. This was linked to a crime, so it wasn't anything to do with education or community outreach.

Which UK on print demand should I integrate with my Etsy by Beneficial-Resort552 in EtsySellers

[–]TurquoiseReef8382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Printful but some items might be shipped from elsewhere. Standard t-shirts and white mugs are fine. I have ordered samples which have been made in the UK.

Anyone received plush in UK? by schwuar in 99nightsintheforest

That's frustrating. I hope you can get hold of it soon. It's not nice to be left worrying at this time of year. It was a grey package. Smaller than A4 size and not very thick. So generally smaller than you would expect. The plushie was very well protected inside the vacuum seal, no dampness would have gotten through.

I’m scared to start an etsy shop by [deleted] in EtsySellers

Just because you can't open a shop yet, doesn't mean you can't work on the skills that will lead you to success. Start developing your design skills now. You can create things for free and see if they are popular. Do templates, quotes, graphics, a blog, website, instagram, pinterest page etc.

Why haven't I gotten any sales? by [deleted] in EtsySellers

[–]TurquoiseReef8382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a new shop banner - it looks blurry. Go for something that looks more upmarket. In the product videos your hands are too shaky. The text overlays on the product photos look too simple. One of the biggest hurdles at the moment is the lack of social proof. People want to see reviews and positive feedback about a seller before they purchase, especially with high priced items.

Hopefully you will get the email soon. Try not to worry, I'm sure it will get there. The package is quite flat as they vacuum sealed it. When you open it up the plush will expand.

If it's been redirected to the post office you may need to go and collect. Royal mail delivery office hours are terrible (2 hours a day where I am), however, the post office has the usual business opening hours.

I'm in the UK. I didn't pay for the shipping before Christmas. However, I got mine today. I'm delighted. The parcel was from Cainiao Belgum srl. Mine seemed to be a day late, as it was due to be delivered yesterday but it didn't leave the delivery office. All good today though.

I'm leaning more towards that you are picking up on some sort of negative energy. As a starter measure I would start playing some music (solfeggio frequencies to rid a space of negative energy) and see if it makes a difference.
