I have been an Etsy seller for years and am proud that ALL our items are handmade by my husband, my daugher and myself. Mass produced, manufactured items should be sold on Ebay or elsewhere. The world needs a place where artists and artisans can sell their work and have a chance for success.

etsy should be hand made, and if its not hand made it should be CLEAR why note: for example a clear note on the front of the shop that they out source or produce in a factory, just as its clear when someone is a supplier on etsy it should be clear if it isnt hand made or if any part is factory made

I sell on etsy and had chosen it based on the restrictions in place. If i wanted to sell my wares with whole sale products i would sell them on ebay.

Please stop pushing out the handmade in the name of mass production! It was a place for artisans where consumers where making such lovely fine crafts.

Handmade products were the reason I used to shop on Etsy... If I wanted wholesale, bulk crap I'd go to walmart.

Etsy is a privately owned company and as such has the right to look after their interests, but the transition to mass manufacturing has left many of the people who helped build Etsy into what it is feeling betrayed.

Happy for people who grow enough to contract manufacturers, but then they are no longer artisan and need to find a new venue.

I agree with this! It makes me so mad to see that people can buy in bulk and re-sell saying it's "handmade".

Handmade, yes but not by little chinese children! I pride myself in every single article I sell, Because i made it, all the way to the packaging. So whoever is not repecting that, please go find another plateforme to sell your "unoriginal" stuff.
