Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: This is where I recommend for Etsy to have these all these new items right here and also I recommend them be cheaper like underneath $20 and also electronics where I met with pros the iPhone 20 Pro Max gold with a digital built-in credit card building two Apple Pay and also this new iPhone 20 Pro Max will have the Google play store added for android will be android Apple iPhone iPhone 20 Pro Max you should say that and also a Motorola z flip and different products and and we should have the iPhone 12 Pro Max or the iPhone Pro X 20 should have the Google play store built into the iPhone, including the iPhone store Apple App Store and we should able to access Google apps to from the Google play store built into the iPhone and you should have a Google place store. That’s like android phone will have and also a digital Apple Pay where you can use pay out a bank partner or Greendot bank you can use Apple Pay without Greendot Greendot bank and that’s what iPhone saw on Etsy. You should be able to get 500 credits of dollars of credits. You should be able to add $600 for for credits for free on your gift card these items and these items for sale pictures items are listed in these items I mentioned which we could have on Etsy and the credits option. I feel like they’ll get more customers to shop on ITV and add all these items I mentioned and these pictures of these items I showed you and all of the items that mentioned in this comments, future comments I feel like a T do better if you can have overseas of shopping and everything else and receive credit credits to spend on your gift card like 600 credit starting today time today when you want to set this up on Etsy at these items these serums and also these costumes in these cell phones and electronics

Verified Reviewer |Still not answreing me and trasnfering the money i get on etsy after selling
- - Unable to link Desjardins or Tangerine to Etsy for 4–6 months; issue remains unresolved, Plaid suggested, costing about $100 per week.
having a real professionnels and not intern, junior, ai , indou
A lot told me to use a Plaid paid like Tangerine in Canada because, okay, Desjardins might not work, but I'm so tired of talking to an AI on Etsy. I don't know what to do if they still don't want to resolve my problem with the Etsy shop linked to my bank accounts, Desjardins or Tangerine. I follow the process to resolve it, and it still doesn't work...
I will stop selling on Etsy if they keep rejecting me and my issue. I have the feeling of giving free products to people when it costs me $100 per week.
- Use ai to respond me and it didnt help because same words
Preferred solution: im a etsy seller and i try to link my etsy shop finance to my bank account Tanegrine, after trying to put numbers accounts of my previous banks but ETsy rejected them and they reject tangerine because they ''cant read ''

Verified ReviewerEtsy - Review in Auctions and Marketplaces category from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
- - I ordered a tag for my Audi and didn't receive it.
- - I was told it would arrive by Apr 17, then Apr 18-21, but it never shipped.
- - Refund or the item.
I ordered a tag for my Audi, actually, few weeks back, and they told me that it would have been there by around the April 17. Then I got another message saying that it would come on the eighteenth, between the eighteenth and the twenty first, and no one's been contacting me.
I didn't know because I cannot I can't flag the package because it it was never sent. But then, I guess, one of the representatives, Jason, reached out to me because I left a couple of messages. I couldn't call anyone. And still to still to this day, I don't know where the package is.
I don't know if it was either shipped. I don't know any like, I paid for an item that I don't have. And I'm trying to figure out who's gonna send me my item or who's gonna send me my money back, One or the other. I'm not gonna sit around and wait two, three months for a a tag that costs $12 as as as the principle.
If you got a good company, you got a good company.
No one wants bad reviews for their company. So please, someone send me my pack.
Reason for returning a *** l bought because they don’t have any more, l need one more
I bought a half moon *** but I needed 2. I was going to buy another; they didn't have any more.
Now the *** wants to charge me for return. I think it is not fair.
I thought it came with 2 half moon knobs, but it only came with one *** If I can't buy another one, I would like a refund and a free return label. Very truly, Janette Velez.
- I want a return label for free and my refund
Preferred solution: Full refund

Verified ReviewerEtsy - Review in Auctions and Marketplaces category from Manning, South Carolina
Cue the sound. Call the water.
Yeah. I call these people for my money, buy them seeds they send me when I order trees, and they send me seed.
And nobody hadn't got in touch with me yet, but I want my money back for a refund. Y'all taking people money like they don't need it.
Have I been scammed? I paid for an item and $ sent But cannot see Order or when it is shipping
- - No reply or info about my purchase; Etsy contact attempts have failed.
- - Money has been paid; I need refund timing if this is a scam.
No reply or info about my purchase. Money has been paid.
Is this a scam? I've tried to contact someone at Etsy. I've tried to find out who the person is to contact, getting nowhere. The system is useless, and I've been scammed.
Then I need to tell people about this. I am sending the payment information where I have paid for this product; again, no one has told me anything.
I think this is a scam. I need someone to send me information on when I can get my money back if this is a scam.
Preferred solution: My purchase or refund This is a graduation gift

Verified Reviewer |Resolved: Not emailing me back, double charged me now won't let seller send me my item I paid for
- - Etsy charged my bank; the charge fell off, funds appear held, the wig isn't made, and support hasn't resolved it.
Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with product or service ordered. Etsy never helped in any way they literally just copy and pasted the same response in every email the processing just finally went through after 82 hours when they Said 24 to 72 hours.
They could of finalized it at anytime or cancel it. Now I have to wait for the wig to be made and then shipped.
I forgot to add the part about the lying and saying that it's pending to protect me and my identity when as you can see in the screenshots it's because they double charged me. All they need to do is press one little button and finalize it.
I also showed them the screenshots of my bank account, showing they double charged me. Ive sent lots of screenshots and messages but get no response or hung up on.
I ordered Thursday night its now Saturday evening I've been told that a specialist will email me for over 24 hours and when they finally did it had nothing to do with my actual problem which is they won't give the seller my money. So she won't make my wig and I have cancer am going in for surgery that I might not be coming back from so I'm having a special "event" with my husband and need that wig asap. Everytime I try to do chat they hang up on me! Literally knowing what's going on I've been hung up on dozens of times by etsy agents telling me a specialist will email me which like I said they already did and won't respond.
I talked to my bank today and the money is gone out of my account and etsy is just holding it hostage! I'm I'm shock people can be so cruel and treat someone like this
- Giving money to small businesses
- Besides the paying etsy part

Verified Reviewer |Subject: URGENT: Seller Non‑Response,...
- - Seller has not responded for weeks; purchase delayed.
- - Discount expired; urgent assistance for matches, kitchen faucet options, and total price.
Subject: Urgent: Seller Non-Response, Expired Discount Due to Delay, and Assistance Needed for Faucet Listing in My Cart
Hello Etsy Support Team,
I am requesting urgent assistance regarding a listing currently in my Etsy cart. This issue has remained unresolved for over three weeks due to seller communication problems, and I am now unable to complete my purchase without Etsy's help.
Item Identification (Accurate & Verifiable)
Listing Title: Unlacquered Brass & Resin Bathroom Sink Faucet: Antique Decor Tap
Seller: BazzBrass
Category: Home & Living, Home Improvement, Plumbing, Faucets, Handles & Showerheads
Price at time of sale: $263.70 (10% off original $293.00)
Promotion Code: 2020CARTSALE
Status: Item is currently in my cart and shows limited quantity
Listing ID / Item Number: Not visible on the listing page; item is identifiable in my cart by title and seller
Design:
Black and white patterned (bone/resin) faucet with brass/gold finish, curved spout, bohemian/eclectic style.
Issues Requiring Etsy Support Intervention
1. Seller Communication Failure (3+ Weeks)
For more than three weeks, I have attempted to obtain clear, understandable answers from the seller regarding matching and coordinating items. Responses have been delayed or unclear, preventing me from moving forward.
2. Assistance Identifying Matching Items
I am requesting Etsy's help confirming whether matching or coordinating items exist, including:
Shower fixtures
Handles or knobs
Coordinating bathroom hardware or accessories
Confirmation whether this faucet is part of a set or collection (within this shop or elsewhere on Etsy)
3. Kitchen Faucet Question (Not Answered by Seller)
I also need confirmation on whether a matching kitchen faucet is available in:
Smoke grey, or
Silver finish
This question has not been clearly answered despite repeated attempts.
4. Expired Discount Due to Seller Delay
While waiting for the necessary information, the discounted promotional price expired. I am requesting Etsy's assistance with honoring or reinstating the discount, as the delay was caused by unresolved seller communication.
5. Request for Total Combined Price
Once matching items are confirmed, I am requesting a total combined price for all items together, so I can complete the purchase immediately.
Urgency
Item is limited in quantity
Sale expired during an active inquiry period
Delay has exceeded three weeks
I am ready to purchase immediately once resolved
I respectfully request expedited support or intervention to resolve the seller communication issue, confirm product availability and finishes, address the expired discount, and provide pricing clarity.
Thank you for your prompt attention.
Sincerely,
Dr. Yvette Boyd yvette.boyd@***.edu phone: 845-800-**** or 927-743-****

Verified Reviewer |Return issue with Spoonflower
- - The William Morris bed sheets are too dark and I want a refund for $316.79.
- - Spoonflower says the color looks fine and won't provide return instructions.
I contacted Spoonflower and sent them photos. The William Morris bed sheets are too dark in color, and I want to return them for a refund.
They responded that the color looks fine. Why won't they send me instructions for mailing this item to them for a refund?
This item cost me $316.79, and a customer should be able to return the item if it is unsatisfactory upon delivery. The item is not flawed, but the color does not meet my approval, and the quality is not that good considering the expense.
Preferred solution: Full refund

Verified Reviewer |Dear Etsy Support, I am writing to...
- - Appeal Etsy denial for counterfeit claim re Buds3 Pro.
- - Advertised as genuine but shows issues in build, packaging, and software integration.
Dear Etsy Support,
I am writing to formally appeal the denial of my recent claim regarding a counterfeit item purchased through your platform.
The item in question was listed and sold as authentic Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro earbuds. After receiving the product, I identified multiple issues that strongly indicate the item is not genuine Samsung merchandise. These include discrepancies in build quality, packaging, functionality, and failure to properly integrate with official Samsung software.
Following your initial claim decision, I took additional steps to verify the authenticity of the product. I have contacted Samsung Electronics directly and requested a formal written determination. I am in the process of obtaining (or have obtained, if applicable) documentation confirming that the item is not an authentic Samsung product. I am prepared to provide this documentation as supporting evidence.
Based on Etsy's policies regarding counterfeit or misrepresented items, I believe this situation clearly qualifies for buyer protection. The product was advertised as genuine but does not meet that standard, which constitutes a violation of Etsy's marketplace integrity and seller policies.
I respectfully request that Etsy:
- Reopen and review my case with this additional context
- Issue a full refund for the counterfeit item
- Take appropriate action regarding the seller to prevent further fraudulent activity
I made this purchase in good faith, relying on the accuracy of the listing. I am simply seeking a fair resolution consistent with Etsy's policies and consumer protection standards.
Please let me know if you require any further documentation, including photographs, correspondence with the seller, or the authentication response from Samsung.
Thank you for your time and reconsideration of this matter.
Sincerely,
Purchase made on 3/7/26
