That is a really weird response for someone to say you should realize some people don't have as much money as you do. That's why there are things of all prices on etsy. The worst is around Christmas time, when you get hit with the "if you don't donate this to me, my kids will have an awful christmas! I would have replied would they go into a shop then proceeed tp say that the prices are too high, some people do not have money like them etc.
Never had anyone try to bargain with me on Etsy. Just on CL and the offers were too low or I might've been willing. I wouldn't go for it on here bc I already lower the prices with shipping in mind. And how ppl won't buy at all if that makes the total cost too high. I use calculated shipping on most of my items and my weights are spot on. I informed her that Etsy gets a commercial rate and I pass that on to my customers so they pay what I pay, not a penny more.
I have now had to report this to etsy as I have had now about 20 messages from who I believe is the same person on 3 different accounts requesting the same becoming more and more insistent, saying I promised at the cheaper price and this morning even that they had purchased at the cheaper price and why haven't I shipped obviously no cheaper price and no order!
Honestly my offer was over pay. Rest of your Spanish trash is garbage". A horrid troll. I don't think they seriously think their messages to you would result in you sending them anything. If you ignore it it will eventually go away. No reward, no more bad behavior. I'd completely ignore this one. Reply one last time to one of the accounts with "Do Not Contact Me Again" -- and then report the harrassment to legal etsy.

WonderWorks Crafty Poster. Maybe some vintage people are OK with it But I think in any case going back and forth about it is super rude..
If one has asked for a discount. As far as handmade, I think it is never very nice, unless maybe buyer is purchasing a lot of items.. CuriosAnCollect ibles Conversation Maker. I often get asked and I am NOT comfortable with it at all - I feel I offer nice quality antiques and vintage items at the right price - I then feel guilty when I say I can't reduce very much because I feel I have priced the items correctly.
How would you reduce the item anyway - if its already listed? At a Flea market On Etsy Agree with all of these comments! BoudoirPrive Crafty Poster. I agree with the comments made above.
It is most definitely not a flea market! Agreed too, the income I make here is needed, haggling in my shops is off putting.
Along with begging for free items Rosie: "How would you reduce the item anyway - if its already listed? TheSilverLance Inspiration Seeker. I would never haggle myself, since I personally price my items intentionally to consider materials, labor, and fairness based on the market, and I assume the same of other sellers. But some people just like haggling. It's like a sport for them. If you are offended, then it's rude. If you don't care, it's not. I keep hearing that this is ok with vintage, but not all vintage sellers like it either.

A very wise, crabby man hi, Doug! My true customers are the ones that understand why I charge what I do, and accept that as it supports NightBlooming and the rest of my creative endeavors. These same customers are the ones that supported my novel , sight-unseen, and then, on top of it, asked the best way to purchase to make sure I was getting as much of the money as possible hint: not Amazon. Actually it CAN. This is where I was actually going to start this article before I got fired up about the aforementioned examples and needed damn near a thousand words to get it out of my system.
A recent study by University College London found that most people were willing to sacrifice double the amount of money to spare a stranger pain than they would pay to relieve their own. And of the genders, experts say women are more likely to be people pleasers.
For the rest, Etsy shops provide a meaningful source of supplemental income.
