It looks like you haven't qualified for any of the badges as none are displaying in your store.
How to Become a Star Seller – Etsy
i did for all them if them my thing is 4.9 message response is 98 percent and and ive made over 2100 in sales
Did you have a total of $300.00 in sales for the period including August, September and October?
You probably fulfilled the requirement of 5 sales during that period, but the dollar amount is much tougher to hit with low-cost items.
@LexiLuLuDesign There is a $300 minimum in sales - looks like you did not make that.
ive literally received more then 300 from etsy already in fact my current balance is 656 and before that i received over 400
@NanaLetha i 100 percent made that 300 ive made over 2100 in sales what do you mean?
Happened to me for the second month in a row. I have more than enough sales and $.
My rating for speedy replies is 100%, but it hasn't shown for two months.
SO happy to see it's not just me. It was starting to feel personal lol. I'm on month 3 with it still not showing despite 3 calls and 2 live chats to Etsy messages. It's frustrating and part of the reason I'm leaving the platform.
Same. I think it's not working. I contacted support, and they were useless. There has to be some sort of glitch. ANOTHER thing broken by Etsy!!
it has to be $300 in the last three months,
was your first sale before August 1st, if not, you haven't done the 3 months for etsy to calculate on.
@LexiLuLuDesign the $300 minimum would be for Aug-Sep-Oct.
my first sale was aug 7 but it said next chance to become star seller november 1st
my first sale was aug 7...
This explains it.
Your first sale has to be 90 days or 3 months ago or longer.
3 months for you will be on Nov. 7, so if all goes well you'll get the badge on Dec. 1
from etsy
You’ll be eligible to become a Star Seller starting 90 days after your first sale – as long as you’ve met our customer service standards for the month, and received at least 5 orders and $300 in sales over the past three months.
.... etsy always says the next chance is at the next review, even if you've been open 1 day, but you have the chance, and fail the 90 days
next chance is 1st Dec
i created my etsy account aug 3 so does that mean i have to wait till december 1st if so why it did it say next chance november 1st
I think you also need to be open a full three months. When did you open your shop?
(You should have an about section which helps build customer confidence in your shop, also supplies this info)
@LexiLuLuDesign If it still says Nov 1st, then it hasn't been updated yet.
it says December 1st now i understand that it has to be 90 days after your first sale but why did it say next chance to become star seller nov 1st i didn't get my first sale until august 7 but it said next chance Nov 1 and now it updated today till December 1st
your first chance was 1st sept, then 1st Oct, then 1st Nov
etsy evaluated you, and you would have failed all chances, because of the 90 days.
but why did it say next chance to become star seller nov 1st
It's all automated with a generic message for everyone.
They don't adjust the message for each individual.
okay thank you guys you are a huge help!
one more question guys i have this reserve on my account when will it be removed its been on there for 2 months i cant get my money?
is it a reserve or a hold,
normally it's a 14-20 day hold on new shops for 90-180 days
its a reserve
