Week in Review — March 22, 2026

A busy week of production across both wedding and Easter categories, with the seasonal bulk-order scam pattern making its expected appearance.

Easter bulk scam confirmed circulating

Following Friday’s alert, we heard from several additional sellers describing similar rushed bulk-order attempts this week, consistent with the pattern we’ve now tracked across multiple seasons throughout the year.

Mid-season capacity check-ins paying off, per reports

Following Thursday’s piece on comparing real volume against early-March projections, a few sellers specifically mentioned catching a capacity gap early enough to adjust cutoff dates before it became a real problem, exactly the value we hoped that check-in exercise would provide.

Wedding season volume climbing steadily, no major surprises

Consistent with the broader trend we’ve tracked since mid-February, sellers report continued, expected growth in wedding-category orders, with most describing their preparation as holding up well against actual demand.

Easter listings sharpening toward final-stretch language

Following Wednesday’s piece on shifting toward more decided, specific buyer language, several sellers reported updating listings accordingly this week, consistent with the pattern we’ve seen work well across every seasonal category this year.

What we’re watching

Easter’s final two weeks playing out, and wedding season’s continued build through the remainder of March and into April.

Back next Sunday.
