Default Selling brand items on etsy

Hi folks,

Question is does Etsy allow selling brand staff at all? The ones I am talking about are brand new and no way near vintage.

Thanks for your help!

Et.sy is nothing like EB and AZ. It's not a place to sell regular items, especially ones that you buy from a manufacturer and are just reselling.

Unless you are selling supplies to make something with. That would be the only exception.

They stop at traffic lights like all good car drivers.




It's a niche market.

Traffic is as good as what you supply/sell.

What is your actual AIM?

What are you hoping to do?

Make use of their promoted listings, too. Works great if you tweak the CPC.

I am considering sell personalized pictures. It would be a new niche for me so I am not sure if it would be worth the effort.

Actually I am desperately looking for a online platform other than EBAY. That is the initial motivation lead me to Etsy. I have checked OZsales but are they only work with big brands directly?

Are your pictures of humans or animals?

Can YOU see a market for the items?

Because you could even make a business Facebook account & have an ETSY account.

I am not saying you would make millions. But you have an option to try something.

I deal with several people who do this. There are other options too, but that depends on your items.

Nice one you are looking.
