In the age of Insta + Youtube (marketing) and Venmo/Stripe/Zelle (payment processing), I constantly wonder why people use Amazon to buy goods of questionable quality instead of from "artisans".
I was fed up with the quality of futons on Amazon, so I built my own :)
- anonyxyz 8y agoYou think the shit on instagram is made by artisans? Its the same old aliexpress crap.
- anoncoward111 8y agoNot everyone man. Thats a pessimistic view to have. You can vet a person's stuff if you DM with them and they post in depth reviews of what they have on offer. There are soooo many custom cars I would buy on social media and quite a few artists i would hire
- mrep 8y agoAre you an Insta + Youtube marketer + Venmo/Stripe/Zelle seller because that is literally the last place I would go to buy something?
- anoncoward111 8y agoYes, right now I'm making furniture and t shirts locally and trying to hawk them old school, but I am debating going online and shipping stuff. Back in the day I used to flip bitcoin using Zelle before it was called Zelle. I got immensely paranoid about infosec though and got out the game ASAP
