Sorry, I meant 3d printing in the abstract sense of making digital thoughts into real items; not as in I'm buying 3d printed goods on Etsy. I updated my origin

I updated my original comment to remove the confusing analogy
- namanyayg 7y agoI understood you the first time around; I was under the impression that it was Chinese manufacturers who ripped IP. Is it really Americans handcrafting your fandom products or is it just Chinese bulk export?
- mintplant 7y ago> Americans handcrafting your fandom As was mentioned, you can find a great deal of that at the Artist Alley of any sizeable fan convention.
- dkersten 7y agoI've bought a bunch of such (videogame-related merchandise mostly) items off Etsy and its a bit hit or miss. Some stuff seems to be legitimately hand made (you can often tell because they have a link to their instagram/whatever or even often include a handwritten note with your order), but it does seem like a lot of stuff is just dropshipped from China too.
