Category Listings

Hello,  How do I get Vintage catergory headings   It is a huge problem for anyone who sells vintage to not have them listed.  This change will kill vintage sellers. An example:  Someone is looking for a vintage child's parasol.  The might normally look under vintage children's accessories,  vintage children's clothing..or lets say the piece they are looking from is from the 1930's....they might look under 1930's children's clothing.   Where they will not look is under childrens accessories-umbrellas,  or childrens clothing.  It is just to broad and to much to look through.  Vintage is a hard enough sell as it is.  And even though I applaud Etsy's attempt to cover a multitude of subjects...they have , in my humble opinion, completely forgotten to take in account the needs of a portion of their sellers..that being their Vintage Sellers.  

 

Etsy would you please  fix this...even a few vintage categories would help.   

Thank you.

Re: Category Listings

The majority of buyers don't browse categories, but instead type search queries into the search bar and then view the results. So I wouldn't worry about categories too much.

Re: Category Listings

There are no vintage categories.  Etsy eliminated vintage categories about 8 years ago.

You list the vintage item in the category and sub category that best describes the item.  The core details indicate that the item is vintage.  If a buyer types in vintage blue dress then Etsy will show vintage blue dresses.
