why?

how come?

i verified mine months ago with no intention of opening yet, just to get locked in at $7

I need to cut out even small expenses right now.

understand that pb

i know that people say not to put all your eggs in 1 basket, but etsy's really all i can handle.

Are any of you doing well w/ ArtFire?

i am doing decent for a start up site

yeah, i suppose it depends on how much one is willing/able to put into it.

i dont put alot into it

i just make sure i have alot in the shop show up well when people go to search needlecraft

are you keeping a free shop? you should.

i totally know what you are going through. hubby still has a job but they completely cut out overtime. veterinarian bills are killing us

i still have the free shop, but there's not a lot in it at the moment

i am hoping the economy turns around soon

me too i cant stand living like this any more

yeah me too. I *hate* applying for work, it's so depressing! Etsy has been fun for me, but it's strictly a hobby.

its always good to have a hobby that pays a bit

indeed. Plus, if you can't sell it, it just piles up all over the house.

is there anywhere to sell locally?

I'm in NYC, so there are several things in town, like in Brooklyn, but I haven't tried any local markets
