Hi everyone! :)

I know this "In which section do I post my new thread" question is no clear sometimes!

I know the first instinct it to put "I'm looking for..." and "Show me your..." in Buying & Selling section, but it should go in Promos & Critiques actually, because people will promote their shop in the thread.

If you look beside the sections, there is a little description of what should be found in that section, here's what it says:

- "Buying & Selling: here you can share tips and ask questions about buying and selling"

- "Promotions & Critiques: posts about your shop and items go here"

There is more info in this thread here if you need more details:
www.etsy.com/forums_thread.php?thread_id=5032633

Of course, occasional errors happen and it's no biggie! It happens, we all make mistakes sometimes, hehe.

I know the Promos & Critiques section is really crowded, I agree totally! But these subjects really go there... It would be like posting about a bug on the site in the Street Team section just because the Bugs section would be too crowded... It really doesn't go there, know what I mean? :)

But please try keeping the Buying & Selling section for tips and questions really about buying & selling, it would be great! :)

Thanks everyone for reading! :)

Hmm I always check Buying and Selling for the "I'm looking for threads". I thought they belonged here because the alchemy threads are here.

hey, thanks for clarifying, I didn't realize it was a place for QUESTIONS about buying and selling!
