When Etsy still deserves the listing
Etsy stays in the decision because Best first route when the listing depends on handmade cues, gifting, or stronger style story.
Use the third-ranked marketplace as a stress test, not a default. It should earn the listing through category-specific demand, not because the headline fee looks familiar.
Shipping and markdown checks before listing
Run the top two routes with the exact shipping plan you will publish: buyer-paid shipping, free shipping, or a shipping discount can change both fee base and real payout. For bulky, fragile, or low-price necklaces & pendants, this check is often more important than the marketplace percentage alone.
Then rerun the same listing at the lowest offer you would accept. If Etsy only works at the optimistic list price, it is not really the best platform; it is a fragile best case. The better route is the one that keeps profit acceptable after a normal markdown.
