It will depend on your set up to be honest. Everyone is different. The most I have spent after the Stealth Book was about £15, but that is required per et.sy account for my personal set up and how I like to run my business. Others spend more, some spend less and maybe even nothing at all.

Yeah. I have some accounts I have spent $0 making, where others I've been out $20-$30 bucks. It just depends on the store, my goals with it. I spent $55 on the eBay book years ago plus buying all these dongles, cards, etc that in the end I didn't need. The book was helpful at the time given how etsy was and for basic stealth it's super helpful today. The dongles are collecting dust tho.

@Gladiator, What do you use versus dongles? VPNs?

I have unlimited data with AT&T so I just tether. For International shops I have VPN's.

I just signed up. Could somebody like Gladiator PM me?

I've been using Etsy for 3 years.

I have 1 regular account. I sell mainly digital items and prints. I am in Canada.

I had 2 other accounts before the new Etsy Payment system. I was using a VPN and used 2 US locations for those accounts with ⊗⊗⊗⊗ names and Paypal (I set them up quick and just randomly chose the US).

Everything was great until that Etsy payment merge. My 1st account was already linked so no issues. My other 2 had to have the identities verified, so I just closed them by myself.

I'm computer savvy, etc. Not a noob. Really need the extra income. I'm a serious seller.

Thanks!
