For many years, Beadacious has shared colour, texture, and tiny sparks of joy across Etsy, Amazon, and eBay. These platforms helped us reach makers all over the world — and we’re grateful for every customer who found us there.
But the landscape has changed, and it’s time for us to be honest about why we’re stepping back.
We will no longer be updating or adding new listings on Etsy, Amazon, or eBay
Our existing listings may remain visible for a while, but new products, restocks, and fresh collections will not be added to those marketplaces anymore.
Why this decision? High fees and rising costs
Over the past year, marketplace fees have climbed to a point where they directly affect small creative shops like ours. Every listing, every sale, every transaction now carries layers of charges:
-
listing fees
-
final value fees
-
payment processing fees
-
advertising pressure and optional promotion fees
-
rising fulfilment and platform service costs
These costs stack up quickly — and they make it harder for us to offer fair prices, bundle deals, and the kind of personal service we believe in.
Instead of raising prices to cover those fees, we’re choosing a different path.
Our focus is now fully on Beadacious.store
This is where we can:
-
release new Czech glass beads, Delicas, findings, and limited editions
-
offer better prices without marketplace markups
-
provide clearer stock updates and faster restocks
-
create a more personal, colourful, story‑driven shopping experience
-
build a space that feels true to our brand
Beadacious.store is our creative home — and where all new arrivals will appear first.
Thank you for your support
Your purchases, messages, and beadwork shared over the years have helped Beadacious grow into a vibrant little world. Now we’re excited to welcome you into a space where we can offer more value, more colour, and more heart — without the limitations and fees of big marketplaces.
Here’s to the next chapter, and to all the tiny treasures waiting to be discovered.
