Is it Etsy-Legal to buy something from a relative or friend?

Don't see why it wouldn't be.....A sale is a sale.
Why wouldn't it be? If they have a shop here and have something you like and want, buy it!
You can buy from whomever you want if they have a shop and items for sale.
Of course! I've had several friends buy from me. I can't think of any reason that wouldn't be ok.
Definitely! Anyone can purchase something from you, and you can purchase something from anyone.
My 3rd sale was to my mom, and she's been a repeat customer several times.

Absolutely. Just so long as you aren't just buying it to get their sales numbers up and the sale is genuine.
Sure! I think that's how a lot of sellers start out on here!
You can purchase from any Etsy shop except your own.
awesome! I'm going to order a custom item from her then. :-)
