    I remember at one point that Amazon was amazing. Now days it’s a crapshoot on product quality and delivery time.

      Etsy is now just as enshittified. Almost everything on there is dropshipped bullshit from AliExpress. You have to trudge through a massive amount of crap listings just to find anything handmade.

        From what I have heard from sellers it’s as bad on the other end. Nobody wants to buy a piece of handmade jewelry for $50, when there is an Ali drop ship that says “hand made” for $5. It’s extremely difficult to judge the quality until the item arrives, so shoppers get conned into buying junk to save a few $ that they thought was hand made.

        Amusingly there are a lot of fetish gear Etsy shops that are still above board, but not much else in my experience.
