I don't mean to be rude, but none of your items appear to be handmade by you. How can they be when you offer them in quantities of 1000! Not only that, but you actually want people to buy in large quantities so that they can resell, which is not allowed here on Etsy.

Re: Am i doing anything which is not correct ?!!!

First Thank you so much making a reply to my post @Elizabeth :)

It's work of my family... i mean we make these as a family business and sale here on retailers shop.... but i trying to do my home business on a large scale and i find Etsy is best for handmade items that's why i'm here..... But if in your opinion the announcement i made is against the rule of Etsy i will change it now....

Thank you !!

Priyanka Im afraid i have exactly the same impression of your shop as Elizabeth.

You don't mention who makes your items, & it does give the impression your goods are not handcrafted by you - the sole owner of your etsy store.

I agree with the above critiques.
--Include your family in your shop and show photos of all of you working on pieces from start to finish in your about section.
--this may not be the venue for you because it looks pieces are mass produced.
Good luck!

@ Priyanka

I was afraid it would come to this. I had similar apprehensions about your store, but then I know these sculptures are hand carved by handicraft artisans of Rajasthan. You definitely need to correct these things and also, since ETSY too is more of a retail centric website, you should search for websites which focus on bulk institutional sales.

I have learnt that the more you run after a sale on etsy, the more elusive it is. So its better to focus on Marketing your page and listing, rather than running after sales. I may be wrong, but this is what i feel.

All the best.

Thanks @Harmeet kour for your reply...
I appreciate your suggestion to focus on my work rather than for sales....
But I wanna clear this thing that these sculpture are made most of in each house of Makrana and nearby.., than after making they are available at everywhere so it's easy for other Artisans of Rajasthan and Artisans of else where to do more work on the same craft.....

As you are Indian.., you are most welcome to visit my hometown Makrana... I will be happy to share the making of marble crafts with you :)

Thanks again !!!
