I've just rewritten my shop policies. Please have a look and let me know what you think. Please be constructive. Is there anything in my policies that would prevent you from making a purchase from my store?

Thanks in advance for your assistance. :)

I love the bright colors in your work and the close-ups.

I realize you need the copyright information in your policies, but I would switch the first two paragraphs with the 3rd and 4th paragraphs. It's a little more welcoming to the buyer, and then tell them the nitty-gritty.

Nice shop!

Thanks for the feedback. :)

I agree with the comment on copyright - you need to say it but put it deeper down. Not the first thing the reader gets.

I also love love the colour you gravitate too. Great work.

Thank you both. :) I have taken your suggestions and rearranged my paragraphs.

Does anyone else have any helpful feedback?

In your opening sentence "I print my own images (up to 8x10) on various types of archival paper with genuine Canon inks to ensure that the colors are as intended." you might add something about the colors lasting. If you are taking care to print on archival paper you may want to let customers know how long they can expect colors to last as vividly as they are received. I am not wording it very well here, but hopefully you understand what I mean.

@GrowingUpWild:

The majority of my items have this in this description:

' Details: printed on high gloss Canon photo paper with Canon inks, both part of the ChromaLife100 archival system that "improves beauty and permanence of printed images." '

Do you think I should copy that to the policies section?

I think your policies sound fine. If you include the "details" in your item description, I think that should be sufficient. Honestly, I primarily check a seller's policies for things like guarantees and return policies. I look for details in the item description.

Your work is amazing BTW - so bright and colorful! And I love the retro vibe!
