Folksy Reviews 451

This is a very well run friendly website. Good for buyers and sellers. I have no complaints.

I buy a lot of gifts from Folksy, as well as cards and treats for myself. I have never been disappointed. Excellent choice of beautifully made, unique items at surprisingly affordable prices.

Great choices, good prices, individual and unique

Easy to set up my shop, and straight forward pricing.

I'm a seller and Folksy is wonderful! Simple to use, looks great and real humans, that are easy to get hold of, if there is a problem.
I am also thrilled to see that the items for sale really are handmade and not mass produced.
Thank you Folksy.

Great product, speedy delivery, easy to pay.

As a customer, I cannot fault this company, although it's largely the sellers that make it great. I bought 2 gifts and both items were beautiful! As a seller, however, I am disappointed. Sales are virtually non-existent and the only item I've sold barely covered the listing fees, which has left me out of pocket. Consequently, I am looking for a new platform to sell my handmade sun catchers.

As a seller, I can’t praise Folksy enough. Very easy to create and maintain a shop, great communication.
The main reason I chose Folksy is the use of PayPal, I don’t have online banking, so this was essential.

Ideal ethos that aligns with my small business of hand made, illustrated ceramic pieces. It was very clear how to start selling and communication was and is always prompt, clear and friendly

I have been emailing Folksy for several weeks now after a purchase wasn’t sent to me. I firstly emailed the seller with no response, then contacted Folksy who have repeatedly advised me to wait 48 hours for the seller to respond. They even sent an email asking for a review of my purchase!!! So, approximately 5 weeks on I have no glass birds and am down £24.25. Appalling service.

I'm quite new to Folksy and still finding my way around the platform. The Folksy forums are really helpful though. I find it easy to upload my items and the dashboard is really useful. I am yet to discover how I thank a customer for a review but I'll keep looking!

As a seller, the seller pages are very easy to use to input new items and edit them.
Giving sellers an opportunity to raise their profile, even if it means paying a little more would be helpful.

I paid for a Folksy Plus account expecting the listing transfer service I was eligible for. They refused, claiming my products weren’t suitable—even though similar items are on their site. After I pointed this out, they suspended my account and denied a refund. This is unacceptable, especially since the service wasn’t delivered. Be cautious—check everything before paying.

Easy to use but you really have to generate your own traffic to your shop. It’s not expensive to use at £7.50 a month but if you don’t get sales what’s the point. You have to literally spend all your time advertising your shop on Facebook selling sites to get traffic to your shop. A big time waster especially if you are a busy person. Not good for me I’m afraid- shame!

Just By Debs was a fantastic seller, quick to dispatch and the sweatshirt was amazing. Would highly recommend this seller

Selling and stock control, reports and accounts, all sorted easily!
Very easy to get products up.
Not ideal that I am having trouble selling to E.U, but thats hardly Folksy's fault.
All in, an ideal solution for what I need.

Folksy is a fantastic platform for those who want to sell their hand made creations. As the pricing is reasonable. Handmade good made in the UK which I think is brilliant!

This review was for a purchase on Folksy, I am a buyer and seller on this platform.
Transaction was straightforward, great communication with the shop owner who went above and beyond.
Easy to navigate the site to find what I was looking for, some beautiful handcrafted pieces, so many talented artists and makers based in the UK. Payment went straight through with a choice of paypal or cards via Stripe. Good were despatched very quickly and beautifully packaged.

I have decided to sell on Folksy after my 800 listings of raw materials and craft supplies have been permanently suspended by Etsy without notification, just really one-sided action done by robots. Oops, I have even submitted passport, brp, national insurance number, utr number and bank details that have the same name, unfortunately, not enough and still permanently suspended!!

Folksy is really helpful. There are real humans in there, not robots!! And they help me sort out some issues relating to bills that I have mistakenly chosen for my listings. They are very helpful and treat me like a human being. They work with heart ❤

I just need to get the traffic to Folksy from my TikTok account. Who doesn't want to buy a beautiful Shabbychic premium high top quality printed grossgrain ribbon when the price is just £2.50/yard with £0.85 delivery fee (not £3 delivery fee like most Etsy shops event hough you just buy 1 piece of tiny button)??

My previous buyers will be looking at my shop. Hope they will go to Folksy.
