You raised our fees significantly, took a chunk of our shipping a al Evilbay and you eventually forced us to pay for advertising and now you want to give us a “rebate” of sorts?

Screw you, Josh Silverman. You made your bed, now you sleep in it.

This is what happens when you hire MBAs who understand business models but don’t know a damned thing about what it means to BE the heart of a business like etsy, ergo, to be a SELLER.

Can’t wait until my inventory is down to the last five items so I can close my shop. By then, Mercari will have bought Shopify (or vice versa) and will present a serious competitor to you and the evilbays of the world.
