Original Post

I received a order tonight from this buyer and it was a fraud order. Right after the order was placed, this person also went in and left me negative feedback which said "Mass-produced items — though they may be technically made by hand in some cases — are not in the spirit of Etsy and may not be listed in the handmade Categories".

First of all, the item was not listed as handmade, it was listed as commercial supplies, so I'm very confused and have no idea what this is about. I've contacted Etsy to have the order cancelled and the neg feedback removed. Sellers beware!!!

I just received a "Kiss and MakeUp" from this person. I have reported it and have also ask this person to explain to me in full what the purpose of doing this to me was all about

Um... wow. They were definitely listed under Supplies/Commercial- not that being listed as handmade would have made it okay for them to do that anyway. I'm sure Etsy will take care of it for you.

That person must have a lot of time on their hands.

However... you do have things tagged as jewelry that shouldn't be.
