  1. Add Isle of Wight to your list of counties (we are not part of Hampshire)

    The Isle of Wight is not listed as a county under your South-East England list, this means my shop is not showing in this search feature. I am sure there are other Isle of Wight shops that must have the same problem.

  2. Marking items as sold (where it has sold outside of Folksy) so that it is still visible to customers viewing my shop.

    I sell many of my original works of art at fairs and exhibitions and would like customers to be able to see an item they have seen in person has now sold. This is particularly important for original works of art, where there is only 1 item ever available. If I change the stock amount to zero the listing is hidden. It would be great if my store could show the listing of the item that has sold as a means to showcase my original works of art rather than my store just showcasing the art prints and cards that…

  3. Hallmarking Notice

    Could we have somewhere on our shop fronts to display dealers notice's from assay offices? Some of the pieces I have will be above the hallmarking exemption and it would be better than having to include as a photo on listings

  5. Link to Folksy interview for featured sellers.

    Would it be possible for previous featured sellers to have a link to their Folksy interview where the star is presently - ?

    It may help in promoting in yourself as you can share your processes etc, and people can find out more about the maker if they want to.

    thanks -x-

  6. Can dates be added to Holiday mode

    Please can you make it possible for Shop owners to put up the dates of when their shop will be closed and then re open ?
    Preferably underneath the shop banner in large and bold lettering for customers.

  7. Please, could we have a 'Save as Draft' option?

    I'm currently setting up a new Folksy shop and have tried to put several listings as Drafts ready to list them when I'm ready. When you preview a listing your only options are to 'make changes' or 'list item'. If you just abandon it and click back to your dashboard it saves it as a draft. That's fine, it works but it seems a bit hit and miss. Plus you then need to navigate through 'manage listings', find 'Draft items' to start another.

  8. Returning to edit

    When you list or edt an item, we are taken to see item and no option to edit another without having to go back to our shop again., It would be good to be able to list another there or edit another !

  9. Offer buyers a choice of 1st or 2nd class postage

    With Royal Mail putting up the price of stamps again (grr!) it would be good to be able to offer a choice of cheaper or faster postage depending on the buyer's needs.

    This is a nice idea. The full range of postage options (1st class, 2nd class, signed-for, recorded delivery, personal collection, etc) might be a little tricky to design for though, not to mention more complicated for buyers.

    We’ll have a think though and will consider what might work best.

    Many thanks,

    We will be reviewing the way that feedback works in the future, and will take this situation into consideration, so that we can more accurately reflect positive buying experiences on the site.
