I've been a big fan of Etsy for a while now, yet also continually impressed by the growth and experimentation coming out of Amazon, so this announcement is a bit bittersweet. But hey - as long as they're supporting creators, it's a good thing. Anyone know what sort of cut Amazon is taking?

Ok seriously, Amazon is trying to conquer the world! What now? Open a brick-and-mortar store to take on Walmart and Target? I can't wait to see what else they have on their hands

If I were Etsy, I'd be really nervous! A big player in a smallish space. I hope Amazon doesn't bury Etsy and that they treat the craftspeople nicely. Wait and see I guess!
