100 days You can leave a review after the day your order should arrive, and you have 100 days after that date to leave or edit a review. Reviews can’t be left or edited while a case is open, but the 100 day period continues while a case is open.
How do I leave an Etsy review after 100 days?
Table of Contents – Some of the links in this article are affiliate links that will pay me a small commission if they’re used to purchase something. You can leave a review on Etsy for 100 days from the time that the review window opens. After the 100 days, you won’t be able to leave a review for that product, and if you have left a review, you won’t be able to edit the review that you left. 
Estimated review date on a new order.
- Sometimes Etsy uses the, which can be off by a few days in either direction.
- It’s possible that you’ll start getting reminders from Etsy about leaving a review before you get the item.
- If that happens, just wait to leave the review until the package gets to you and you have a chance to check out what you bought.
- On the other hand, you might receive the thing that you bought but not be able to leave a review yet.
- If THAT happens, just wait and come back in a few days to see if you’re able to review your purchase at that point.
- as soon as the review window opens, and recently it’s gotten to the point where people are getting so many messages it’s driving them crazy.
It’s very unlikely that you’ll forget to leave a review because of this, unless you don’t come to Etsy at all for three months following your purchase. And even then, they’ll probably send you emails about it.
- This is probably a good time to mention that it’s ETSY sending the messages, not the seller in most cases, so if it’s aggravating, please don’t take it out on us by giving us a bad review!
- They drive me crazy with messages when I buy something too, so it’s unavoidable at this point.

Click to see the video The short answer is that you can’t leave a review for an Etsy purchase after 100 days. When the review window closes, that’s it, and you won’t be able to post a review at all. This is meant to prevent people from abusing the review system and altering reviews long after the fact.
- 100 days should be long enough as far as seeing whether you like the product, and to be able to give a good review.
- Some customers want to wait in order to see if the product they bought works out over time, but there has to be a cutoff!
- Most shop owners would probably say that 100 days is too long, so the length of the review period is never going to please everyone!
Etsy review Editing or deleting a review on Etsy has to be done during the 100-day review window. After that time passes, the review will be locked and you won’t be able to delete it, change anything, or add a photo or video to the review. Again, this is to prevent abuse of the review system.
- If Etsy let people come back and change reviews without a time limit, it could get crazy, so the 100 days applies to everything as far as locking the review in.
- You also can’t delete a review after the 100-day review window has closed.
- At that point the review is locked.
- You MIGHT be able to have Etsy remove a review that you left in error by, but that’s not guaranteed to work.
Etsy has to comply with laws about altering online reviews, so they can’t delete reviews without a good reason, other wise they mgiht be violating FTC regulations. 
You should also be careful about deleting a review completely, because you might not be able to leave a new one. Just edit the original review if you want to change something, don’t delete it. If the seller responds to a review, it locks it in and it won’t be editable after that. 
Response to a review on Etsy I try to respond to all of my reviews, so they do get locked in when I do that. If the shop owner that you purchased from does the same thing, you won’t be able to change anything after posting the feedback. The other situations that could prevent a customer from leaving a review on Etsy include if they open a case against the seller, or if they checked out as a guest.
- When the case is closed, the review can be left as long as the 100 day review period is still active.
- The 100 days doesn’t stop when a customer opens a case, so if you do that right at the end of the review period and the time elapses before the case is resolved, you might not be able to review your purchase.
- The other thing that could happen is that you checked out as a guest, and then you want to leave a review but you can’t.
- In order to leave a review for that item, you can register an account with Etsy, then claim the order to have it linked to your new account.

Is there a selling limit on Etsy?
Reduce inventory levels and avoid selling limits on Etsy & eBay With the “Limit Listing Quantity” feature, you can set a quantity-limit on each SKU for eBay and/or Etsy. This means that, when you export your listings to those two channels, Nembol will push only a partial inventory for each of your SKUs.
Now that you have all your products listed on multiple channels, you start selling. With the Quantity Sync turned ON, it doesn’t matter where you sell: What happens when you sell a product on -say – eBay, where you have an inventory-limit?The answer is really simple: Nembol shares the sale on all other channels, reducing the quantity accordingly. Then:
If the resulting available quantity is larger than what you have left on eBay, Nembol will automatically restock the product (or the variation) on eBay until it matches the limit. If the current availability becomes smaller than the limit, Nembol will simply ignores the setting and leaves eBay untouched.
Read some examples for eBay and Etsy below. are a problem especially for 2 kind of users:
Dropshippers with gazillions of inventory-quantity; Sellers who just opened a new account on eBay.
The latter case is really frequent among Nembol users. Many of them have been selling for years on Etsy, or Shopify, or WooCommerce, and they have a huge catalog with a large inventory. But when they open a new account on eBay, they have to confront the strict limitations on quantities to which new users are subjected.
- This also applies to experienced eBay sellers who simply open a second account.
- The first thing we suggest doing is to periodically ask eBay to raise your selling limit.
- You can verify if you’re eligible for a raise,
- Raise your limits every month, to progressively increase the quantity you can sell on eBay.
To set a quantity-ceiling in your “List to eBay” settings in Nembol, activate the “Limit Listing Quantity” function and type in the number corresponding to the upper limit. By doing so, every time you export listings to eBay, Nembol will publish each SKU with that given inventory-maximum.
When you sell in any other channel, eBay’s inventory will remain untouched (until your overall inventory becomes lower than the limit). Other channels’ quantity will be updated. Every time you sell on eBay, the inventory will be reduced on the other connected channels, but eBay’s quantity will remain equal to the one you’ve chosen (until your overall inventory becomes lower than your limit).
It depends, mainly on your current limit. This decision requires some math. Example: if you can currently list up to 2000 products, and you have 100 listings with 2 variants each (200 SKUs in total), you have to set the limit to: 2000 / (200) = 10 If you want to have the limit set to 1, make sure you have the out-of-stock option active.Otherwise, the listing will be ended by eBay before Nembol can restock it.
This combination of settings can help you and keep selling even with a reduced inventory count. Etsy has a 999 inventory-limit one each SKU. This applies to everyone. When listing with Nembol, you can use the Quantity Bulk Edit function to, This solution is sufficient when you want to migrate the listings, but it doesn’t allow Nembol to correctly,
If you want to successfully sync products across Etsy and other channels (where you have an inventory-quantity larger than 999), set for Etsy a limit anywhere lower than 999. Or just 999. In your “List to Etsy” settings, activate the “Limit Listing Quantity” function and type in the number corresponding to the limit.
When you sell in any other channel, Etsy’s inventory will remain untouched (until your overall inventory becomes lower than 999). Other channels’ quantity will be updated. Every time you sell on Etsy, the inventory will be reduced on the other connected channels, but Etsy’s quantity will remain 999 (until your overall inventory becomes lower than 999).
Because the 999-limit applies to everyone, and there is no way to list a quantity above that, we set by default a limit of 999 in all new users’ “List to Etsy” settings. When you set up a limit for a channel, Nembol will apply it on each SKU. Meaning that each of your variations will have that upper limit. Example: you set up a limit of 999 in Etsy -> each variation will have a quantity-ceiling of 999 This function will also change the products you listed with Nembol before activating it. However, the change will not apply immediately, but progressively every time an edit (of any kind, also a sale) occurs. To speed up the process, you may open your products on Nembol, check they have the total quantity, and save. : Reduce inventory levels and avoid selling limits on Etsy & eBay
How many items does the average Etsy seller sell?
Want to know more about our Etsy shop owners? – To write this piece I interviewed 20 Etsy shop owners, with shops ranging from brand new this year to over eight years old. These awesome shop owners sell a wide variety of products including t-shirts, custom dog collars, wreaths, jewelry, ornaments, printables and more. For a few details on who these shop owners are, see the charts below. 
Now, it isn’t surprising that the 20 shop owners I have interviewed have different goals and levels of success. Or that the longer a store has been open, the more sales it has had. The highest volume shop interviewed was Adoren Studio which has had over 8,000 sales since she opened less than two years ago.
She sells printables which allow her to have higher volume and less hassle with shipping. The lowest volume shop was InkAid, another printable shop which opened in 2017, and has had 43 sales in its first four months. The chart below shows total unit sales of each shop compared to how long they have been in operation, highlighting whether the shop is a side hustle or full-time career for the owner.
The chart excludes to outliers that had significantly higher sales than the other participants, Adoren Studio (over 8,000) and Maple Shade Kids (over 5,000).
