Here's an idea, Etsy, how about advertising for buyers? Not advertising in craft mags or blogs but marketing to real buyers, please.
All businesses advertise for buyers so why not Etsy?

when Rob was on the Martha Show... there was no big increase of new buyers, however there was a huge increase in the number of new sellers!

You have to wonder why a site that has actually left the definition of handmade behind, and works constantly to shine its headlights on trends, throw-away and poorly made products and encourages sellers to underprice would be able to come up with a wide-appeal advertising campaign. They needed to bring in a PR consultant 2 years ago. Advertising on and off the site hasn't changed or increased to meet the needs of hundreds of thousands of sellers, and the thousands that are added each month.
