I sell by a simple method. Check clears I send product out I'm selling. But I'll only buy from a reputable business that has been around a longtime.

Thanks for the heads up, and sorry for your misfortune from dealing with ETSY. As mentioned already, I have also had zero issues with selling on Fleebay - last sale was a high precision machinist level (.0005" per foot accuracy) with fast payment.Sold a possibles bag with a racoon tail for $80 bucks, shipped it out, that evening Etsy cancelled my account without explanation. I appealed and was permanently denied my account with a copy pasted explanation saying they couldn’t tell me why. Never got my funds, was told they hold them up to 180 days. Turns out this happens to a lot of new sellers. Buyer/seller beware, hope you have better experiences. Guess I’ll stick to the forum here
Never had any problems buying off Etsy. A couple on eBay that were mostly taken care of. Still… I don’t have checks. I do play with PayPal and stuff. To each their own.

It's a woke show and anti gun pro pita.

File a complaint with the BBB.
Etsy is headquartered in Brooklyn, NY. File your complaint with the BBB in Brooklyn, not your hometown. Etsy, if they will pay attention at all, will harken to their local BBB rather than one in Podunk.
Considered opening a "selling account" on Etsy to move some on my quilts. Tried a bunch of times but couldn't quite get things to come together. Looks like there was reason it never came together. No great loss. Everything happens for a reason.
Have bought a few sewing related things with no issues.

I doubt that Etsy knows anything about that. However, it is covered by the Lacey Act. Any wildlife part sent needs to have the word "Wildlife" on the outside of the package. Some states also have restrictions on which furs can enter their state.
Good to know this. I have only bought from Etsy a time or two but will avoid the platform from here on.
I have bought several nice leather pistol holsters from a guy named James who makes and sells them on Etsy and they were nice quality and price was good and never had any problems whatsoever but never tried selling anything . I bought 5 leather pistol holsters recently and no problemsSold a possibles bag with a racoon tail for $80 bucks, shipped it out, that evening Etsy cancelled my account without explanation.

I would not deal with any selling platform that holds your money, and wants your banking and social security information which is just about all of them. It sucks.
I never give my social security number for anything online and i dont put it on the form when buying new guns either

Had miserable instrument purchase issue with Reverb a couple years ago. Reverb is owned by ETSY. Only got my money refunded after canceling payment via the issuer of my plastic.
Just how are you filling out a 4473 without a SS# without breaking a federal law? Is this Hunter Biden???

Its optional
I'll be darned, used to be required.
I tried to order a hat a year or two ago on Etsy, had a bad time trying to get it done, and went somewhere else. Then got an earful from some members here (now blocked) about how wonderful Etsy was and what a jerk I was for saying I wouldn't use them ever again. So not surprised to hear that you had a bad experience, take your business elsewhere.
