Re-selling on Folksy

I have noticed a new shop on the front page today who is blatantly re-selling and using another websites pictures. It saddens me as sellers like this are selling very cheap goods and undercutting all the genuine crafters who can’t possibly compete with them. As they are selling their goods as handmade, buyers are also being deceived.

Report it. That will be quickly sorted then after the weekend. They sneak in at the weekend.

Best thing is to right click and get Google to check for the image and then report it with the URl where you found it… so I just did one.

I just had a sense of deja vue looking at this one shop, as if I may have seen it all before! Ali Express must be doing OK, at any rate :slight_smile:

No sooner reported than Gone thank goodness.

Yes, I saw. Fantastic! They are so good on Folksy - unlike Etsy who ignore the shops you report!

Just reported another store opened during the night found the same items on Ebay from china and in various other ebay shops.

So annoying!
