Etsy - anyone ever actually sold anything on it?

[SolidButShamblingUndeadBrass]

I am thinking of giving it a go despite spending lots of time laughing at Regretsy - but I can't help wondering if it isn;t just an online dump for idiots to share their art-as-therapy rather than an actual business opportunity/proper selling tool.
Perhaps I shoild also ask if anyone ever bought anything from Etsy.

I've bought (and sold) a whole pile of stuff on etsy. I mainly buy jewellery (note to self to check out Nova's site!), ribbons and buttons. My shop is www.fabiusmaximus.etsy.com but it is hard work and scarily addictive.

Oh I love Etsy and always buy there if I need presents I can't make myself.

DP buys me jewellery from there too.

Go for it Solid.

Marking my place! I've got stuff on folksy, really need to learn how to actually sell it
