Except that the entire core selling point of Etsy was that we would be able to search, and artists/artisans would be able to surface their works, WITHOUT the searchers having to sort through all the crap. Merely coming to Etsy was supposed to bypass the crap and get to the good stuff.

I hope an honest competitor comes up.
