Art Wortd Coop

I love Etsy! It is the best place on the web for buying handmade gifts and I often manage to buy gifts for ME. I have not been working Etsy very hard as a seller lately so I am really not the most experienced person to be offering advice. I do hope some of my fellow artist pals will take a moment to offer up their opinions on Etsy by leaving a comment here.

PROS:
• Very easy to use interface
• Goodlooking web design.
• This is a handmade community so your art will not be listed along side car tires, perfume and gucci handbags.
• Great supportive community. Great place to network and support other artists.
• Very low listing fees.
• Young vibe, lots of talent.

Cons:
• Often feels like artists selling to other artists so prices tend to be on the lower side. This is great for buying, but you may find your bigger pieces and pricier work slow to move.
Ok that is it on Cons.
