January 15th, 2010Etsy

I love Etsy – one can find almost anything there – looking for a handbag – a soap or even a moisturizer or a blackhead removal. We all want good value for the money that we fork out and 9 outta 10 times – the sellers on Etsy are wonderful and they take pride in what they sell. But once in a while – it kinda bums you .. because you bought something paid for it.. and the item never arrived. And you write to the seller – and they tell you – i’m sorry – i don’t know what happened there and never offer you a solution. If it was $3 – that’s not a big deal but if you paid like $100 or more then it’s a great deal eh.
Anyhow – lucky for me – i didn’t pay anywheres near $100 but still it was good money – and the item took a month to arrive. A check with the seller – she said i’m sorry – she don’t know what happened and that was it and never made any attempt to contact me again. Well, it did finally arrived today – but it came with a plastic bag and no messages as per requested to be sent to the recipient. Awfully unprofessional and not wrapped up nicely like most etsy sellers would do. But this is the only bad experience i’ve had – so overall, i’m gonna be more careful from now on…. and make sure i know the shipping and no arrival policy.
