I sell fiber supplies. One of the most violated tagged products ever. Case in point, use the new search bar above.
GO TO: CRAFT SUPPLIES & TOOLS
Then: YARN & ROVING
Then select: BATTS
Yeah, batts. Those fun explosions of carded fiber-that people spin yarn, or felt from! NO. This is a tagging nightmare. There's people selling everything from felt, to hats that are tagged with...you guessed it BATT. This is where I start to lose it a little. WTF. Yeah...I sell real actual batts that I hand card using a hand cranked device (called a drum carder). It makes me positively apoplectic with frustration that there are so many tag abusers in this category. My lovely handmade craft products are being buried!! The question, I have is...when is Etsy going to let lose use sellers to police our own category? Because I would love to clean up my own category. It would be for the greater good.
