Our team provides purchasing assistance, consolidation and delivery. Start with the product link or specification, quantity and destination. A sourcing arrangement does not establish that an item is eligible for Etsy; your actual product and creative role determine which rules apply.
Email the team or use the supplied WhatsApp contact. Include product links or design files, variant quantities, destination country and postal code, and any target date. Charges and delivery estimates depend on the confirmed product, supplier and parcel information.
Examples illustrate a decision method rather than a live price, fee schedule or guaranteed outcome. Follow the linked official Etsy rules for your specific situation. Keep the date and a copy of the information used for a purchasing or listing decision.
