Sharing Etsy to Pinterest chooses random price

[Former_Member]

Still learning so apologies for what may be a newbie question. I'm sharing each of my Etsy listings to a Pinterest Board. Each Etsy listing has variations in pricing based on size/product. But when I share the Etsy listing to Pinterest - almost every time - the HIGHEST PRICE on the listing becomes the first thing in the header on Pinterest. That doesn't seem like a good strategy to get customers to click through from Pinterest to Etsy.... Any suggestions please on how to fix that? Am including links to one of my Etsy listings and the corresponding post on Pinterest - just so people can see what I'm talking about... Perhaps if I create the Pinterest post after it is listed as opposed to immediately after creating (the share option that pops up)? Any help is appreciated.

Hi Tracy,
thanks for your question!

I looked into your listing and it seems that the problem is in a way Pinterest scrapes Etsy products data.

Here is what I see in product card for your listing:
...
"@type": "AggregateOffer",
"priceCurrency": "USD",
"lowPrice": "10.00",
"highPrice": "129.00"
...

Basically, Etsy says that the price range is $10 - 129 USD. And on the Pinterest I see $129 USD. For some reason they stick with higher end price.

As far as I know when you lower the price (say, you run a sales event) Pinterest spots it and notifies the customers who pinned your product about new (better) offer.

As a workaround (it's ugly but it might work) you can add only part of your variations (up to the price you would like to see on the Pinterest). Then you pin it to your board and only after that add the rest of product variations. In this case Pinterest will see the price you want it to see. But still, there is no guarantee that your product data will not be re-scraped by Pinterest later when highest price variation will be already in place.

I hope this helps.
