Closing out June with Pride Month wrapped, the 4th of July approaching fast, and wedding season continuing its steady summer run.
Patriotic bulk-order scam confirmed circulating, exactly as expected
Consistent with Friday’s brief alert, a few sellers reported similar rushed bulk-order attempts this week, right on the seasonal schedule this pattern has followed all year.
Pride Month closed out on a genuine, sustained note
Sellers who engaged authentically throughout the month, rather than with a single front-loaded push, described the closing week as a natural, unforced wind-down rather than an abrupt stop, consistent with the sustained-engagement approach we recommended throughout June.
Reflecting on a full year of coverage
With the 4th of July marking almost exactly a year since this site began tracking Etsy seller news, several long-time readers reached out this week noting how much has genuinely changed, and how much hasn’t, over that stretch. We’ll have more reflection on this in the coming days.
Summer wedding season: steady through month’s end
No major surprises, sellers continue reporting strong, consistent volume consistent with what we’d expect from this year’s confirmed seasonal peak.
What we’re watching
The 4th of July’s brief window playing out, and continued reflection on a full year of covering this platform’s genuinely eventful stretch as we approach our own anniversary.
That’s June. See you Sunday for the first week of July.
