YET Another Pocket Watch Reseller: TimesGood

Just today I did a "Comparison Shopping" entry on this seller[timesgood] I only listed one item of his in that entry because I thought (at first) that he only had that one item in his shop that was a wholesale item.
 BUT I just found more items of his for cheap/wholesale while "investigation" another reseller! 
And FYI to all you buyers who buy this type of item! When the title of the ad only says "Good Watch. Best Gift" in it, it's most likely a wholesale item from someone with broken English. from Hong Kong/China. ;) 

His ads say: Meticulous production process
Enjoy the pleasure of creation 
Liar liar pants on fire!


*DON'T FORGET: Links to items are in ORANGE. And click photos to view larger* =) and each item will be separated by a small divider. To keep it more organized*



Here's the item from todays entry.

His fancy smancy Orb pocket watch here for $36 These watches are literally a dime-a-dozen!

Or save $35.99 and get the exact  piece HERE on eBay for 1 CENT
EVERYTHING about it is the same as his.Notice the similarities in the detail, even down to the leather cord?


Here's his 'wood grain' pocket watch listed for $40! Same watch HERE but he has added .10 cent charm(s) of a wrench and hammer to it (lol)

PeriwinkleCourt: A Reseller, a Tag fibber, & Vintage faker

I am working on a couple of entries right now that will list a few sellers who use Etsy as eBay light. I was going to include this seller [PeriwinkleCourt] in that entry, but she is breaking more than one rule; that I thought she deserved her own entry. Although she actually has some legit allowed items in her shop-she also as just as many non permitted items as well. Such as newer(ish) brand name bags/purses as well as knock offs and no-name and Target brands that she lists and tags in the vintage category
 People like this who are ignorant or just ignore the TOS of Etsy piss me off! They think because it's a site to sell things, they can sell anything they want as long as they mix them in with a few items that are allowed. Kwim? 


Here is has a modern  Coach  Bag  listed.


As well a non-handmade non-vintage Japanese purse. I saw this exact bag at a kiosk in the mall last year in Edmonton. 




Below are links to even more random items she has listed in her shop; that are not permitted on Etsy- 
-NOT vintage, handmade OR supplies-
