Etsy Revises Its Fee Structure So Merchants Don't Pay for Unsold Inventory

Etsy sellers will do anything to escape extra fees. Some write personal notes like “don’t put this in your cart, it’s on hold for a bride,” while others list a lone bowl in what should be a set of six. Many will even encourage their frustrated shoppers to write in and ask if there are “more in the back.” That’s why Etsy has created a new fee structure that doesn’t punish sellers for unsold inventory.
