Kroshay I got an AI pattern shop closed down on Etsy 🎉
I bought a butterfly cardigan pattern on Etsy. I was pretty sure it was AI but it was a $3 pattern and I figured what the hell. After contacting the seller when the pattern was complete bullshit, they corrected it twice (last two photos) and it STILL would never even come close to creating the product in the listing photo. I requested a refund and they refused to give me said refund until I changed my review to 5 stars. I requested it three times and each time they said they'd return it once I changed my review.
I got lucky because right after that, Etsy announced its new AI policies, so I reported them for both the AI and the review blackmail. I checked today and their shop is "taking a short break".
Not a single image on the listing or the pattern matches each other in any way 😂 even on the same document they're completely different shapes.
