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?

Found this on ABC News: "Handmade at Amazon will take a 12 percent referral fee in exchange for listing the products and payment processing. Etsy charges its artisans 20 cents per listing, a 3.5 percent fee when a transaction is made and another 3 percent fee plus 25 cents for processing a payment, according to the company's website."
