I didn't know about them until someone filed one about me.

I get an email and a big message when I log in about not delivering an item, but she never paid. I tried to contact her numerous times and

she never got back to me. But now Etsy is saying they are going to suspend my account over it if I don't get it fixed. What am I to do
Brandy
says 2009-08-11T15:26:37.000Z
if this lady is not getting back to me? So I'm just going to cancel this sale, I guess.
I'm sorry! So glad I never actually listed anything on that site.
can't you reply in it with the item has not been paid for and you don't just give things away
don't get me wrong i buy there and love many of the sellers. i just hate etsy the company
Brandy I would just cancel it but Etsy should not cancel your account because you didn't get paid for an item.
If the customer can prove that she paid then that's different but she didn't so I don't get that. Etsy has gotten worse over the years

I know! I followed the instructions they gave me - basically work it out with this lady. But she's not replying to my attempts.
Brandy
says 2009-08-11T15:35:47.000Z
And I see this giant message about it every time I log in. So I just replied to Etsy and told them she didn't pay, isn't returning my emails
Brandy

and I want to cancel the sale. But they basically threatened to suspend me because this hadn't been worked out.

kind of glad i didn't join etsy. I really hope you get things sorted there.

perhaps try the same approach w/ Etsy. Explain its impossible 2 work it out when u have no reply from the buyer who hasnt paid. Tell them
essensu
says 2009-08-11T15:50:27.000Z
you'll b canceling the order unless they reach the buyer for an explanation on no payment. And you're not in the bus of giving things 4 free
I buy from a seller who went thru the same thing. Frickin etsy closed her account on friday just before they closed for the weekend
they reopened it on the following wednesday but they never apologized to her
Brandy

yikes. I hope they don't close mine down. I emailed them, but I haven't received a reply yet.
Goodness. Maybe I won't list stuff at Etsy when I finally get my stuff ready to sell... Yikes.
Sorry you're dealing with that crap. That's just awful of them.
Brandy
says 2009-08-11T16:34:03.000Z
hopefully it just gets sorted out before they decide to close the shop or something. Mostly selling at Etsy is mostly painless unless
Brandy

you get on their bad side, but I don't do much over there besides list things and only keep it up because I sell over there still.

I think you can open the new thread about it with the header like "if no response about this I will change to use ARTFIRE" or something..

says 2009-08-11T16:53:33.000Z
and invite more people to reply in your thread.. when etsy have a thread like this they will response so quick.. someone told me..

says 2009-08-11T16:54:28.000Z
don't know it work or not.. but I think it's not bad to try more than wait for them to response.. maybe someone with your same situation..

says 2009-08-11T16:55:36.000Z
can help you with this.. I don't want to see they close your shop because of this stupid thing which is not your fault..
I am sorry to hear that too. I sold something and didn't get paid. Got it worked out but seller never contacted me about the issue.
Hope you have all linked your plurks to your twitter account. all this will come up there maybe they will see it.
wow...that's really frustrating! Good luck...hope you can keep your shop open
she does not need to start a thread like that over there. it will guarantee she gets on etsy's bad side
Brandy
says 2009-08-11T20:26:23.000Z
yup. Then for sure my store will be closed. Or I'll be kicked out of the forums.
Brandy
says 2009-08-11T20:41:02.000Z
I just got an email (same day OMG!) saying that if I just cancel the sale it'll resolve it and everything'll be fine. Phew.
