Amazon Handmade

Has anyone applied for this? I did but they said my category isn't available yet. Has anyone been accepted and going to sell there? Curious how they plan to set it up.

I had never heard of it so went to Google; it says Handmade instead of Homemade.

What categories are available in Handmade at Amazon?
Right now, Handmade at Amazon is open to artisans who make Jewelry, Home products (Art, Baby Bedding, Bath, Bedding, Furniture, Home Décor, Kitchen & Dining, Lighting, Patio, Lawn & Garden, Storage & Organization), Party Supplies and Stationery. If your products don’t fit into those categories, don’t worry – we are working to open up more categories in the upcoming months.

I'll fix the title. I applied when they initially came out with the concept. They have just now started getting back to those who applied and qualified. Just curious if anyone has made the cut, so to speak.

Ah. Sorry if I sounded "off", like I said, I hadn't ever heard of it and wondered what kind of homemade things they would offer (think homemade bread, fudge, stuff like that).

It's going to be an Amazon version of Etsy more or less.

First I've heard of this. I'm a big Amazon shopper but would think long and hard before buying anything "handmade" from them. People have different ideas as to quality and what they deem acceptable. I'm wondering if this could cause Amazon a big headache.

Never heard of it.....but found it, sent the link to DH. He was thinking of doing Etsy, but might go this way instead

I've never heard of this. I'll have to check it out some more. I've had an Etsy shop for the past four years and while I have no complaints, it doesn't hurt to try something new.
