I ordered 7 bracelets from an etsy vendor 2 weeks ago. She was super responsive when I placed the order. 3 days ago I senther a message asking her the status because I need the bracelets by this Friday- Saturday. No response! I sent her another message the next day. Nothing. Today I justsent her "????"

Wtf do I do??? I really need these bracelets by the weekend. Her page says orders ready to ship 1-2weeks. I will even pay for overnight ifi have to,but she won't respond!!!

Threaten her with a bad review and see if it lights a fire underneath her. If she cares about her reviews, it should motivate her. Also, tell her to ship it for when you need it at her expense. Considering you've reached out multiple times with no response, it's the least she could do.

Worst case scenario, you may not get the bracelets and you will need to get your $$ back.

She has over a thousand positive reviews. I am so upset!!! I really really need these bracelets this weekend. I'm crying over this. All I want is the status. Ingoing to have someone else contact her and see if she responds. I'm also questioning my own sanity and keep checking to seeif I've been sending myself messages and not her

Re: Etsy

Ugh I feel you.
I hate etsy. I really do.
People have no sense of good business.
What is wrong with them?

I don't care how many positive reviews a shop gets...I always have issues.

Same thing happened to me with a shirt for my DD"s bday. Until I gave a bad review. Then she came out of the woodwork all of a sudden and sweet as pie.

It's sad

Is there some sort of customer service at Etsy that might be able to help? Maybe if they get a hold of her, she'll respond

Re: Etsy

I hate to say it but the best way to get a response in a situation like this is to leave bad feedback.
I got a response LIGHTENING fast the second my feedback hit.
Amazing huh?

December 2nd was yesterday though! She is probably lying. I can't stand Etsy. I find nice stuff on there, But they always have an EXCUSE why the stuff isn't mailed when it's supposed to. The most popular is the husband in the hospital excuse.

There's a way to report an issue and Etsy tries to resolve it. It's not quick, but it helped me get my money back once when the vendor admitted she made a mistake but then expected me to be ok with the incorrect order.

Just know that if you get a refund by going through their dispute process, you lose your ability to leave feedback. So leave the feedback before you dispute!

I am sorry you are dealing with this but at this point I would just assume you are not getting it by tomorrow. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I am surprised how many people have had issues. I have ordered several times from there with no issues. one time I got a product I was not happy about and the seller refunded me the money and paid to have it shipped back.

only issue I had recently was that I contacted the seller before I ordered and never heard back from them. I didn't end up placing and order.

Now that I think of it though I don't think I have ever ordered anything from etsy without first contacting them to ask questions and confirm delivery time.

Does her shop have a message on the homepage about holiday shipping times? Did your order fall within the noted production PLUS shipping times?
