I mean there are still some good about Etsy as I am 3 away from 300 sales, but Etsy is making money off of me and everyone else. Every time you list and every time you sell. What I like about ArtFire is I pay one price a month and can list like crazy, but promoting is a little confusing, their forums are way different than Etsy's oh wait that's right Etsy took those away from us. Now it has to be a team, well what if I don't want to be on all these teams. Anyway I got side tracked, back to ArtFire, Seems as if I am paying them a set price every month and Etsy double that if I list the same amount of items it would seem as if ArtFire should be the one to hang with, although I have been with Etsy so long that I will not just walk away from it.
Here are a couple of my listings on ArtFire and I will say being a premium seller has it's good there, like 3 different size banners and links to you social networking.
Thank you for your post. I just started selling on both this month and wasn't sure which to stick with. I do hate paying all those fees but on the other hand I was a little confused with artfire listings. I will take any advise. It seems like if I sell something I am giving all back to etsy in my listing fees. :-(
ReplyDeleteWell starting Saturday we will be promoting ArtFire with weekly giveaways and I know what you mean about giving my money right back to Etsy :(
