Leatherworking team over at Etsy

Another site like Etsy is

http://www.madeitmyself.com

They are still very new and I joined them before I knew about Etsy. I am gunna stay there for a while and see what happens ...

I can't search there unless I sign up. Off-putting right out the gate.

I typed in "leather" in their search bar and items came up with no prob. maybe they were having a glitch when you tried?

I used to be a die-hard eBayer...I started my biz on eBay! I was the only show in town offering a good selection of a specific line of tack on eBay. But as time went on, other sellers jumped on my bandwagon and flooded the market with this tack. There were too many sellers and not enough buyers. It turned into a price war and I wasn't going to give my inventory away so I focused my attention on getting a fully functional shopping cart system on my website. After implementing the shopping cart, my website sales were going good and it was nothing but crickets chirping in my eBay store, so I shut it down. I've been away from eBay for a couple years. Been keeping tabs on my former categories over there for the last few months. My competition has all moved on as well, but even so, I don't see that sales in that niche have recovered yet. I'm planning to use eBay to move old stock, but that's about it.
