For every comment like yours there is an other saying Etsy fell apart when they started making legitimate sellers jump thorough a bunch of hoops proving they are really hand-making their things. And a story about someone who got wrongly thrown out. I'm not sure it's possible to solve both problems.

It’s possible to solve both problems if you are content not to be the only provider of this service in the world. I realise the forces dictate that direction, but that’s also why everything turns to crap in the end.

Just have a very clear separation of both. Call one Etsy and the other EtsyExpress or something like that.

It's a love-hate relationship. Kickstarter also used to be about the little guy. Now you need thousand dollar videos, and pay to market your own project!
