you are the only person who's covered the most important issues with hand made products that i've found. Thanks for sharing your hand made experiences .

@sampeters1715 4 года назад

I just want to thank *MyOnlineSelling. Com* for being a good wholesale and dropship directory. I've found the directory very useful and have been able to find a number of good dropshippers and wholesalers. And more importantly to me have been the frequent tips given out to subscribers which have been very very valuable to me. and I want to thank them for doing that job.

If buy off Amazon long before Etsy or eBay. Hope this helps. My first and only experience on Etsy was a nightmare so much so that I'll never look at Etsy again.

@junekroner6382 4 года назад

Thanks, Angela. Great information! Very helpful. I think Amazon has the philosophy that the customer must by satisfied, no matter if the customer is at fault or you are at fault. Maybe, that will help those vendors who are frustrated by that particular policy by showing that their is a reason for it. It's possible that we, as vendors/sellers, come out ahead when we refund the dissatisfied customer, because, we earn the reputation of satisfying our customers. Which helps draw more customers. I really don't know if that is true. I've never read any statistics on it. In any case, thank you for helping me understand what's going on with these companies.

@tonyfaillo5991 4 года назад

Thanks Angela ... I appreciated your frank explanation of your experiences with both Etsy and Amazon Handmade. I'm new to the handmade business and have an Etsy shop but having trouble people finding me ... I'm learning about the whole promotion thing (pay to play I call it). I know that I have huge competition in the handmade jewelry market ... but with over 100 pieces in my store, I'd hope to have more consistent sales after 10 months in! I was accepted by Amazon Handmade a couple days ago ... but am a bit concerned about jumping in there after hearing your video. Again, Thanks for the video of your experience. I wish you much luck with your business!!!

@AngelaJasmina 4 года назад

Yes Etsy is probably the #1 market for handmade jewelry. You have to make sure your Title & Tags are the best possible for people to find you! & The promoted listings should definltey help but if you have the right tags and title you should get the sales :)

@williampennjr.4448 3 года назад

I quit ebay selling for the very same reasons you sight. I dont know how anyone makes a profit. I would only sell old stuff I dont use anymore and unwanted gifts, plus I had the ability to ship with no cost, but people are such cheap skates it was still nearly impossible to make any money. I would always sell brand new stuff with free shipping at whole sale prices but people would still ask for a lower price. I posted a 42" mirror for $25 with free shipping and I still had people haggling for a lower price. I finally sold it for $20. If I had to pay for shipping it would have cost $50 just for the shipping.

@kaywiththevibes 4 года назад

I have been EXTREMELY slow to join Amazon as a seller. I have been with Etsy before it got popular. It has worked for me and they have a really good system setup. I am only a buyer when it comes to Amazon. If I buy something I'm not returning it unless something is REALLY wrong. Not everyone is like that. Not everyone respects the handmade culture.

@abdulsaeed5540 2 года назад

Thanks Angela, you're spot on regarding Amazon(Amazon FBA). In 2016, they've lost all our products shipped from China, they are dead in the water. I never heard about Amazon Handmade but wouldn't deal with Amazon, never. No one makes money with Amazon, look somewhere else.
