It's all well and good that your money was refunded but it's so frustrating when you went to all that effort to choose something sweet and thoughtful as a gift.<br /><br />>< Grrrrr!emmabovaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10639685984279320297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637354733344705396.post-47510012868118716512011-05-15T21:06:35.386+09:302011-05-15T21:06:35.386+09:30I am glad you got your money back in the end. And ...I am glad you got your money back in the end. And I understand how you feel about it. Hope you managed to get something different for your mother.<br />And honestly, I don't get this freebee thing. I totally agree with Lilit. I do not have super large blog or million followers, but I have received several offers in the past to cooperate with companies or promote their products. But have never done it as in the end it either turned out I would have to speak positively no matter what or just have not liked the way the whole cooperation would be. And this competitive self-promotion is just annoying. If you have a good blog, readers will find you. If you want nice things, go and buy them. We are not making adverts, we are bloging about things we like.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637354733344705396.post-75163329050543844722011-05-15T08:20:08.503+09:302011-05-15T08:20:08.503+09:30Suzanne, it's definitely put me off Etsy for a...Suzanne, it's definitely put me off Etsy for a while. :-(<br /><br />Isabel, I agree - especially when I'd already told her that it was for a specific event! <br /><br />Liz, awww thank you! My sarcastic cranky tone is never far away - fear not! <br /><br />femputer, I went through this person's feedback and it almost all positive, but the negative ones told similar stories to mine. Next time I should pay attention to that...<br /><br />VM, thanks - Paypal emailed me last night to tell me they had found in my favour, so that's one good thing to come out of this mess. :-)<br /><br />Lilit, I've used Etsy at least 25 times and never had a single problem except once when someone took ages to send stuff. But then this one episode has really put me off it. :-(Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09349956327915851336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637354733344705396.post-58796133019957535992011-05-15T08:12:34.443+09:302011-05-15T08:12:34.443+09:30Firstly, i don't think i've read the blog ...Firstly, i don't think i've read the blog post you're talking about but lately there are a lot of those types of posts flying around esp about how to have a better relationship with PR. One was about how we should email a pitch about ourselves (why we're better than other bloggers)to PR companies, and ask to be paid for our reviews because "real journalists" get paid. WTF, we're bloggers, we're not here to make money. I thought we're blogging coz we love rambling about things, not coz we're making a career out of it. The fact we get freebies to review from time to time is a bonus!<br /><br />Second, WTF! I've never bought anything from Etsy and reading about your ordeal makes me want to stay away from it. You need to post an update on what happens. I feel so frustrated reading about your ordeal, and your poor mum, she would have loved that bag based on what you said about her. <br /><br />Lilit<br />xoLilithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18429816579073070387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637354733344705396.post-54644377928368641152011-05-15T06:43:00.245+09:302011-05-15T06:43:00.245+09:30I hope your get your money back!

I hope you have more positive experiences with other sellers that might block out your bad one.femputerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03441912695989886552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637354733344705396.post-47609022521968541292011-05-14T14:04:57.384+09:302011-05-14T14:04:57.384+09:30That sucks.

I hope you get your money back and spread the word on this disreputable person so that others aren't tricked into buying! That was so sweet of you to go out of your way to get something for your mom that she'll really appreciate. And yes - while I was lauding the blogging community just the other day - I realize there are also a lot of distasteful blogs out there as well. I love reading yours, though, so I hope you direct that masterful sarcastic cranky tone to the proper channels and continue churning out interesting posts!Liz (Beauty Reductionista)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12248806073054637457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637354733344705396.post-62676340872802118182011-05-14T13:25:29.176+09:302011-05-14T13:25:29.176+09:30That's bullshit man..

I bought a christmas present that was never delivered or refunded, and it made me avoid etsy for about four months :( sad face.<br /><br />hope you have the chance to spend some quality alone time and get back on the horse - eventually.Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00495997845721866644noreply@blogger.com
