I can’t believe how fast this site is spreading! Strangers are literally stopping me on the street to ask if I’ve heard of Regretsy.

I can’t believe the Etsy Team told you to change the format a fair bit so people wouldn’t get confused!!

Etsy seems to have a sense of humor. I did notice the change in format and just figured you were asked to change it.
And…startling enough many of the things you post sell. *disturbed*just a bit*
But congrats on the newsmaking thing.

Congratulations! I have to make sure I don’t visit this site when I have any food or liquid in my mouth. Your commentary is hilarious. Keep up the most excellent work!

Etsy’s playing this very smartly. Of course Regretsy is good for Etsy traffic *and* sales. Attention and buzz can only help, especially as it spreads beyond the Etsy community and brings in people who had never even heard of the site. Hell, the Etsy staff is probably making submissions to Regretsy.

/”Send Helen this one! No, OMG, this one!!”

I love their reaction too! How starkly different it is from the “We can’t be calling out others” in the forum.

Regretsy: the guilty pleasure of Etsy admin.

Congratulations Regretsy!

I’m sure the 4 sourpusses who bitch and bemoan in every thread about the site that winds up in ETC forum (and inevitably locked) are busy pulling that wad of panties out of their collective asses right now.

Does anyone have a link that is not a tinyURL? My computer blocks tinyURL’s saying it is a spy site. If you have one and post it I thank you.

Look here Helen Killer,
I don’t take the weekend off from wasting time on the internet. So you shouldn’t take it off from posting crap… :\
