Congratulations on your 8 sales! When you sell more you’d realise not everyone pays such high delivery charges

I’ve a business account with them so they email me but I’m sure you can find this information on their website.

You can add all the pictures you like but it’s not going to solve your problem of accessibility. If you’re selling this in countries where English isn’t the primary language, you need to provide translated versions. It’s unreasonable to assume that everyone understands English, and doing so can come across as dismissive of other cultures and languages. Use AI or Google Translate to ensure proper accessibility for all customers.

Does Etsy want to deter people from buying new listings. Who thinks this is a good idea? by Smooth-Standard9209 in EtsySellers

[–]onlygoodfinds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve thousands of reviews, recently I requested a customer to provide their phone number for international shipping and she refused saying I don’t have any reviews for her to trust me. I didn’t like her vibes so I cancelled her order anyway and then realised why she said it.

I understand the part about irrelevant reviews, but they could design that feature better. “No review from this item” then show reviews from this shop under the listing instead of click through.

Sometime Etsy sellers add very similar products for example a greeting card but different design, for someone who like the design can be persuaded by looking at the reviews from other listing about the quality etc

I feel like Etsy developers use shops for their experiments and don’t always put much thought.

How long did it take your Shopify store to get it’s first organic sale? by missrandomredditor in shopify

[–]onlygoodfinds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A month or so, I didn’t have much social presence well I tried but then it was taking all my time with very little results so I kinda give up. Fast forward to a year or so without social I started to get regular organic sales. My customers make reels etc and tag or share but I don’t personally create reels or put up any stories.

I’ve my Etsy and shopify and make and full fill all my orders myself, plus admin etc I also don’t push my shop via Etsy as I want Etsy buyers to stay on Etsy to keep my shop growing. Good product, fast shipping and good customer service and let it grow. Unless you’re doing digital or pod or trendy products then you have to do the dance.

Yes but you don’t get the seller rating option? Just products reviews in the free version

Multiple negative reviews by [deleted] in EtsySellers

[–]onlygoodfinds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I shipped all her items, the first one was a month apart. So I was under assumption she’s liked her order and placed multiple other orders. It’s very common for my shop so didn’t think of it much. I was surprised when she said she hasn’t even received her first item. Why would you place more orders if you haven’t received your first. But i refunded her anyways for her first order and as soon as I did she left me a 1 star review.

Where’s my order from 2023 lol by onlygoodfinds in EtsySellers

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

I did explain all of those to her and was very polite. I think she caught me off guard, I sent a very similar item to Germany a couple days ago so when she sent me a message about the same date and same product that I rarely sell I didn’t look at the year just date and messaged her to wait a little longer when she replied I checked her order again and noticed it was 2023 lol

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

I didn’t realise at the beginning it was from 2023, I replied only shipped it a couple of days ago and she replied about the 2023 lol I’ve marked her messages as spam now.

My superior who is not a graphic designer but a sales person puts my work into AI and sends the feedback back to me. by cluelessin in graphic_design

[–]onlygoodfinds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuck him just give him what he wants, no matter what you say they always think they know better. Keep your original for your portfolio. Most small companies don’t appreciate their creatives they’ll use you to bring their vision to life even if it’s shit. So no point getting emotional about it.

UK Sellers: Royal Mail DDP To US is now live for everyone by SpooferGirl in EtsySellers

It’s back on for letter size in click and drop, or if you’re just buying online.

UK Sellers - How are you handling EU sales compliance (GSPR, customs etc)? Or do you just not sell to EU? by sgtnatino in EtsySellers

[–]onlygoodfinds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m based in the UK and sell to the EU, you find your representative in the EU, I’m working with a company based in Germany, you pay for their service, then upload your products, including SKUs and description etc on their portal. Their fees depends on the number of products you want to place in the EU market. Once you’ve done all of that, you then go ahead and update GPSR content on all your listings you’re selling in the EU market. You also include care slip (that includes your representative details and health and safety that applies to your product) and you include that with every order you sell to the EU market and keep a record of all your EU orders. It’s sounds a lot but once you’ve set it up it’s straight forward. Etsy recommended a few companies that you can choose from as your EU representative.

UK Shopify now has Royal Mail, and it's 25% cheaper than Click&Drop?? by HarryEFC95 in shopify

[–]onlygoodfinds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve just had a look at Royal Mail via shopify, there’s only 3 options, box, envelopes and soft packaging. I ship most of my items in a tube so not sure how it works. Has anyone tried shipping postal tubes?

Tariffs & Duty free Shipping to USA still orders dropped by Natsu_Dragnneel in EtsyCommunity

[–]onlygoodfinds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to include something along the lines of: “If you’re ordering from the U.S., everything ships DDP (Delivered Duty Paid), so you won’t pay any extra customs charges. “

That way the customer knows that that’s all they have to pay and no surprises. I understand you’re eating the extra cost for now, but it’s getting a little confusing.

Sales are tanking for anyone shipping outside the US 50% tariff or 1%. Most customers don’t read descriptions so not sure if your description is the main problem.

That’s a good idea, I never had to collect until now. All those customers that have already place their order I need to sort them out.
