Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌ Not accounting for listing fee

Each listing costs $0.20 per item (and renews when sold). For low-price items, this is a significant % of revenue.

❌ Forgetting off-site ads fee

If a sale comes from Etsy's off-site advertising, an additional 12-15% fee applies. You can opt out if annual sales < $10K.
