Original Post

Is there anyway to report an entire shop instead of an item?
If so I would like to report www.etsy.com/shop/eyecandyy

All this individual does is buy bulk pipes that are made in china and then resells them on etsy for a 200-500% profit. It is really sad because there are alot of very capable glass artists on this site and they are all pretty much getting shunned because of shops like this.

Online alone you can order bulk pipes exactly like the ones pictured in his/her shop.

It really really irks me how the person says "Here is a beautiful & UNIQUE handblown Elephant piece direct from eyecandyy"

There is nothing unique about any of the items in that shop.

YIKES!!

This is totally against the convo rules!

It's called "calling out."

You need to report this via convo (email) to either abuse @ etsy.com or admin @ etsy.com !

You can email abuse@etsy.com or flagged@etsy.com with the shop info.
Also, this is calling out, do not do this in the forums, take it directly to admin.

In theory they are handmade. Yes, you are probably right....but there's no way to prove otherwise. Which becomes the case in every other shop on etsy who breaks the rules. Its just hard to disprove actual handmade by the shop owner itself.

And this thread will be closed soon.

Well, ok, I'm sure you didn't know this type of post is not allowed, but I'm going to say something positive and tell you I just 'favorited' your "Wub". :)
