Crafters Market is a curated home for independent Makers and the people who love their work. This is our promise — the values you can expect from us, whether you’re here to buy or to sell.

§01For Buyers

  • Discover original, handmade work from independent Makers.
  • Clear Shop Policies published up front on every Maker’s page.
  • Transparent communication about processing times, custom work, and shipping.
  • A marketplace committed to trust — no counterfeits, no drop-shipped mass-produced goods, no misleading Listings.
  • Support when things go wrong through Marketplace Assistance (see the Returns & Refunds Policy).

§02For Makers

  • Fair marketplace rules that treat Makers as the independent businesses they are.
  • Respect for your creativity and intellectual property. Your content stays yours.
  • Transparent fees — published in the Marketplace section, with no hidden or surprise deductions.
  • Tools designed to help your business grow (listings, catalogs to Google/Meta/Pinterest/TikTok, coaching, analytics).
  • A supportive community of fellow Makers.
This is a statement of values, not a legal document. The binding rules live in the sections below — Terms of Service, Maker Agreement, Community Guidelines, and the rest of the policy suite.
◆ Policy Hierarchy · Order of Precedence
  1. 1.Applicable Law — Federal, state, and local law of the jurisdiction where the User resides or where the Order is fulfilled. Non-waivable consumer-protection rights always govern.
  2. 2.Terms of Service — The foundational contract between every User and the Platform.
  3. 3.Maker Agreement (seller-specific issues only) — For issues relating to Maker activity (listings, payouts, seller conduct, seller-side IP, exclusivity, taxes), the Maker Agreement is more specific than the topic-level Marketplace Policies and controls within its subject-matter scope. For non-seller (Buyer or general) issues, the Marketplace Policies control.
  4. 4.Marketplace Policies — Topic-specific policies: Buyer Protection, Returns & Refunds, Shipping & Logistics, Privacy, Cookies, Prohibited Items, Community Guidelines, Intellectual Property & DMCA, Fee & Pricing, Accessibility Statement.
  5. 5.Maker Shop Policies — A Maker's own published Shop Policies for their Listings. Must not conflict with anything above; conflicts are unenforceable to the extent of the conflict.
  6. 6.Order-Specific Agreements — Terms agreed to at checkout or in messaging for a specific Order (e.g., custom order specifications, agreed processing time). Bind only that Order.
