📢 Attention, Etsy Community and Support Team! My Etsy shop, NecklaceAura, was permanently banned right at the beginning of my journey with no explanation provided. To make matters worse, I was scammed as a seller on my very first day on the Etsy platform (Issue ID: #16571142). As a passionate and dedicated creator, I am deeply disappointed and seeking clarity on this decision. I kindly ask Etsy to review my case, unblock my store, and provide a transparent explanation. It is unfair to penalize a small business without a clear reason. My small business dream depends on it! #EtsyHelp #SupportSmallBusiness #NecklaceAura #EtsyCommunity
I tried setting one up, and it was instantly and permanently shut down by Etsy without so much as a hint of explanation. There weren't even any listings on the store—literally, all I did was create a profile picture. I appealed the closure, and guess what? Denied. No reason, no transparency, nothing. Now I can't sell or buy anything on my account, and if I try to set up a new one, that'll be blocked too. And to top it all off? Their denial of the appeal is permanent—no second chances, no reconsideration. Ridiculous.
Love this website and the regular seller clinics. It's reasonably priced and a much friendlier environment than other similar web services.
The 'better mouse trap' will be here, don't cry when you've dallied and find the item of your dreams sold out!
This site is a dream for people whom love handmade. I am disappointed that they now allow non handmade items.
Really good site to find new products online and easy to search what ever you need, much better then eBay
Very good, most sellers are good, more great & a few fabulous! I've only encountered one bad in years.
I use this site to find unique gifts for my Wife and get ideas for special occasions. Especially jewelry.
Good quality and fast processing and shipping. Good choice of products. Never had a problem with this company in the years I have ordered from them.

I was nervous about purchasing jewelry on Etsy but my wife wanted a nature-inspired ring for our marraige renewal and our research kept bringing us back to Etsy and Segal Jewelry. The online display of his jewels looked really nice but we weren't sure if it would be as nice in person. It was far nicer in person! It is solid yet delicate, intense yet subtle. It is so unique and so special... my wife is over the moon! And to boot, it was supposed to take 4 weeks but arrived in 2. During the 2 week waiting period, the jeweler stayed in touch wth us, inquiring about our story. Through our communications, we shared that we planned to renew our vows so that our kids (6 & 9 years old) could be with us. When the ring arrived, the package included a highly personalized letter about love and how touched the jeweler was by our story and plan to include our children. My wife was touched at how personalized the entire experience had been and she says she feels that the ring was made with Segal's love. Thank you, Yaniv Segal!

I had paid for a couple of items from their site and always came in on time. They change a little more for custom items, but well worth the price.
I love etsy! I have purchased some of the most unique items from amazingly talented people. I'm not sure what is not to like.
Etsy is a great place to find unique and cool products. I've used it for 3 years now and have never had a problem.
Love the hand made products! It means a little more when someone takes the time and attention to detail to produce something so unique!
