5 ways to shop etsy like a pro
Vintage chairs sold by BYMOHO
It’s no secret that using Etsy as a means to shop small for your every-day items is the way to go. But the website can become overwhelming to some and extremely daunting to someone who is on a time crunch. As someone who has been an Etsy lover for years, here are my tips to get the best out of your experience on this global marketplace.
Connect your Etsy to your Facebook for easy access.
Know what you’re searching for, even if you’re browsing. Maybe you want a “vintage mid-century chair”, it’s a broader search than “vintage chair” - meaning, there will be more of the latter to sift through.
Don’t be afraid of customization, and always clarify your order with the vendor through messenger.
Use your “Favorites” to your advantage, whether it be to compare prices or save your favorite shops.
The toggle between Vintage & Handmade, and Ready to Ship are important when searching.
Happy hunting!
