Unlike some other sellers, I am always excited to branch out and try new marketplaces. That's not to say I end up using all of them. Some of them (such as Mercari and Tradesy) have exceeded the expectations I had for them upon registration. On the other hand, many others fall way too short of my expectations and after a reasonable trial period, I opt to no longer use them.
Etsy is one marketplace I have yet to try. This is just because I'm not an artsy crafty person. I have a lot of admiration for the talent of countless Etsy sellers, but handmade stuff isn't my thing. While I do sell a considerable amount of vintage items, I prefer to sell them on eBay where I have a much larger consumer base. Ebay has been an excellent place for my vintage items and I'm not entirely sure Etsy will provide me with a comparable experience. That's not to say I won't ever give Etsy a chance. I am considering it! For now, I'll remain an Etsy shopper and bask in the beautiful things I could never make by myself. Let's just say I'm not an artist. ;-)
