[quote=Anonymous]The problem I see with these online vendors like Amazon, Ebay, Etsy, Poshmark, Mercari even Lowes  is that they have intentionally screwed up their searches. If I want something specific, the searches ignore what I have typed in and include tons of things that don't meet the search criteria so I have to page through tons and tons of junk to try to find a specific item. Etsy insists on putting in rows of "sponsored" not related items in your returned searches.  They know people have to spend more time at their site and will more likely buy more than the specific item they are looking for.

Etsy does have some great sellers but everyone now expects Amazon speed deliveries for everything and perfection. The person who sells homemade crafts can't compete with ith made to order items can't keep up with Amazon and all of us are spoiled now and expect everything within 3 days. ne of my favorite ever vendors on Etsy was called Cat's Paw Pottery. It was a very small company in the midwest who made amazing items. You could pick glazes and finishes. The stuff was amazing. They ran her out of business as she was very small and could not get items made to order out quickly enough. They also made it impossible to limit her sales. People who actually make items will find it hard to survive anywhere online now.

I completely disagree with this poster who thinks most of us hate living in our "car dependent" neighborhoods. Americans love suburban living It isn't great for the environment but we want to go wherever we want easily and don't want to be reliant upon public transportation. [/quote]
