Okay, so, as a lot of you know I use Etsy currently to sell my soaps and stuff.
My usual bill to Etsy every month is about $3.00 and I tend to not get much business... or at least as much as I'd expect to get on Etsy.
I'm looking in to starting a shop on CraftCafe, but I don't know if the extra money per month is going to be worthwhile especially since soaps and stuff are a bit challenging to sell online.
For those of you who have started to use CC, what do you think of it? Is it a big change over Etsy? And is it a good change?

Well I like it so far, a step up for actual handmade items for sure. I've have a few sales since I opened which is good because I was only getting like 1 every 6 months on etsy. I've told you before what I think of etsy lol. I think they have some improving and adding on to, to do on CC but I like the direction it's going in. And I don't think paying the yearly fee is too bad, better than paying month to month. If you do decided to sign up, say I refered you and I'll get a few free advertsing coupons of something.

Unless youve had someone ask you already. :)

For now, I'm paying month-to-month until I make enough to get the yearly subscription. I just opened up my CC shop and I have to say I already like it more than Etsy, particularly how dynamic the shipping is!

The site looks really cute! It reminds me of Craft Gawker
I've been nervous about etsy because I feel like it's so overwhelmed by the amount of stuff that's there & there's so many similar products that they charge wayy too much for :Y

This looks more comfy though :)

I agree. I've only made one sale on CC so far, but I feel better about paying $2.99 a month than paying all that in listing fees every month on Etsy, only to be charged more if I make a sale there. Plus the coupon system on CC is awesome!

I've never heard of CC could I get some links so I can see your stores.. Thanks

Monika. What is your CC name? or link...? I would totally buy soap. I am one of those if you make a friend... support their craft..... sooo.... internet friend.... I shall find you and buy your soap on your preferred selling site. Plus I need more "places to go" when I get on the internet.

Pam I guess the fed number is not to be able to find you too...?

I closed my CC shop for now. Soap is just too hard to sell online since people can't smell it.
Right now everything is on Facebook, facebook.com/DiscordiasApple. :)

I have to update my inventory this afternoon. I'm having a closing sale and someone just ordered one of every soap I have left, haha.

awe sad.... and happy at the same time.
