Favourite Shopping Platform?

I am currently looking at opening an online shop, but am undecided as to which platform I would like to use.

Sellers where are you hosted and why do you love it?

Shoppers, where do you shop and why do you love shopping there?

Examples: Etsy, Indiemade, retailr, Ebay, Artfire, Hyenacart etc.

Thanks or your input! You can reply here or if you would like a response with a link to your online shop please feel free to do so in the Disqus comment section o my homepage.

Cheers!

Karen, of the Art Of Doing Stuff shares with us a very easy trick for getting the musty smell out of those vintage treasures we pine over. I have a very large vintage suitcase that still smells musty two years after I found it. I have my sewing patterns in it so it isn’t too big of a deal but I think I will try this trick to open up the storage possibilities.

1. What do you propose to do? [20 words]

Expand Unconsumption’s capacity to serve as a resource for sharing stories and ideas about creative reuse and mindful consumption.

2. Is anyone doing something like this now and how is your project different? [30 words]

Not that we’re aware of….

I think a healthy number of my readers are (or were already) Unconsumption readers. If you are not familiar with the group it is a truly commercial-free eco attitude.  They are in the top five front runners for some much needed funding (The operation is all volunteer, all the time) and would greatly appreciate a show of their fellow tumblrites support. Non-tumblr readers need only comment in the Disqus comment section of the home page

  • Simply open the Knight News Challenge post here, scroll down to the Disqus comments area, and hit the “like”/thumbs up button, and add a comment. (To do either one on mobile devices, you may need to switch from Tumblr’s mobile view to standard.)
