*ATTENTION* *WARNING* *HEADS UP* - THIS EFFECTS EVERYONE ON ETSY!!!!! Heres etsys new promotion and how they automatically raised your advertising budget without your consent. Theres yet another loophole that even I missed, that theyre gonna screw you for $30. a month without you even knowing it. There is a setting, HIDDEN, that has promotion set to automatically turn on when you list a new item. You have to manually turn this off, or the second you list a new item, they start charging you $1. a day to promote it, EVEN IF you have already turned promotion off. Go to your dash board. Click on PROMOTE. Click on the gear wheel in the upper right corner. Choose ADVANCED SETTINGS. Here you will find evidence of their dirty underhanded money making scheme, and can turn it off by unclicking the box that says YES, PROMOTE NEW LISTINGS. We all need to send a message to etsy and let them know just how unhappy we are with their dishonest new policies. The more people the hear it from the better. They need to hear that this is unacceptable!!!!!
