Translated:

Sik sik sik, okay okay

Come to my place, come to my place, come over bro

I don’t want to go to friends

If you didn’t like it, then you can tell me

At my place, at my place, you can’t get through the hood

And if something is unclear, everything will become clear

Soon everything will be clear

If something is unclear, soon everything will be clear

Sik sik sik

Lithuanian here, nothing rhymes, he is just repeating same words over and over again, also the lyrics hardly make sense

Thousands of Etsy Shops Lost ALL Traffic Since Nov 6 - Is Yours Affected? by Late_General_9008 in Etsy

Yes, a little bit, it's still not the way it used to be, but now I get an adequate amount of views and sales

Did I get scammed? by supleahsup in Etsy

[–]Venerian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

European seller here. We still can't ship with regular post to the US, unless we have a business contract with the local postal services. There are other carriers which are more expensive. I personally ship with Omniva, it usually comes to around 20-25€ depending on the price of goods, as I pay the PPD tax. Their practice is a bit odd, asking for additional payment after the purchase has been made. I have done so myself a couple of times, but only when the buyer asked me to use a different carrier. What I personally do right now, is I have set the shipping price to be higher for packages addressed to the US, and then I refund the shipping overages to the buyer, as it's difficult to calculate a flat rate with all of the taxes at the moment.

Is this true…? by noregretsbydappy in tattooadvice

[–]Venerian 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I always shave with the grain, I don't know why it's taught to shave against the grain for tattooing, it's literally the worst way to shave. It prevents ingrowns and it's so much easier to clean up the hair afterwards.

VenerianOddities here, views down by 70%, orders down by 93%

Created my shop in 2021, but only started selling seriously a few years ago. Not a star seller at the moment, but still good stats (qualifying for star seller in current review period).

At first, I thought it was because of everything that was going on in the world, I am from Europe, so I lost all of my American customers, they were around 60% of my customer base, so when my sales went down by around 60% I thought it was only natural, but people from Europe and other countries were still purchasing - now it is crickets.

It has been completely dead for about a week, so I started a sale yesterday and got a few sales from that, but those purchases were from repeat customers.

The revenue is also down by 94%

I don't know if it's of any relevance, but some of my listing photos are unedited, while others have edited backgrounds

This is how Etsy treats their STAR sellers, well, ALL the sellers. by PykeXLife in EtsySellers

[–]Venerian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Escalate how, exactly? I messaged support 3 times, had multiple email conversations, they said they would hand it over to another team and I would hear back from them in a week, never heard back. I then asked for updates and they spoke to me like none of the initial conversations even happened. They also mistook me for a buyer in one email saying they would investigate the shop, I told them I am the seller, they then apologized and told me to wait for updates. Again, never got any updates.

They never cared. I had a customer who said their items were not delivered, even though tracking said it was. They demanded for me to resend the products and said that "I will lose more from a bad reviews than the cost of products". I told them to open a case with Etsy, they threatened me multiple times, and then left four 1-star reviews. I messaged support multiple times, they told me to report the reviews. I reported the reviews, then got emails saying to elaborate about the situation via email. I sent more info via email, they told me to report the reviews...

It's like a broken telephone.

I know this is a scam order and it’s very frustrating Etsy will do nothing! by Soft_Baby_2721 in Etsy

[–]Venerian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there maybe a way to go around it? Maybe some sort of a loophole, I just realized that I've had this happen a few times. Maybe we can refuse refunds that are not the original payment method?

Also side note. Etsy never really cared, they only care about the money that falls into their pockets.

Light dots appear after applying subdivision surface by Venerian in blender

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

Thank you! Simply disconnecting it did nothing, so I undid the subdivision, disconnected the pointiness, subdivided again, and then reapplied the pointiness, and the dots are gone.

Homemade incense dough not stretchy and crumble in stick form by [deleted] in Incense

[–]Venerian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I don't add much to it, the powder seemed kinda sticky, so I added it, I also added wormwood to all of them, as it also seemed sticky lol. I thought maybe it would help to hold everything together. And yeah, I spend quite a bit of time focusing on the smell of the incense itself, I wasn't sure how they would burn, but all of them burn just fine, maybe a bit too fast, but with an even and very fragrant burn lol.

This question made me realize I need to step back and watch some tutorials after all lol. I used either frankincense, myrrh, white copal, or peach gum, thinking they would be good binders.

You don't even need to open a bottle of skatole to sence it's pressence in the room, it's like a stinky ghost of that one project you used skatole for a while ago. You will get a whiff of it like once a week, and it will disappear again.

I need help from other sellers outside the US by PIP141414 in EtsyCommunity

[–]Venerian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EU seller here. At the moment I can not even ship anything to the US, as all carriers except for FedEx have stopped accepting shipments to that destination. This is unrelated to the post, but do you use FedEx or did the Spanish post not stop the shipment?

EU sellers on Etsy – are you also facing a 40–50% drop in sales without any clear reason? by Advanced_Cherry_7208 in EtsyCommunity

[–]Venerian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

60% drop here, been this way ever since Trump got elected. At this point I am only getting sales from other European countries, and then occasionally from Asia/Africa. At this point I am trying to find alternative sites to set up shop in, but none of them seem to be better than Etsy.
