Before I share my notes from the call, here's my deep dive on Etsy if you haven't read it already.

2/6 Image I: Search result on Etsy today is "dramatically better" than it was 2 years ago.

Image II: How communication between buyers and sellers continues to differentiate the Etsy experience from Amazon, Walmart etc.
3/6 "...we don't give the teams a specific dollar budget. We give them an ROI threshold to hit, and we want them to keep spending until they meet-until they no longer meet that threshold."

Paid GMS now 20-21% of all GMS, up from 15-16% last year.
4/6 Is supply chain constraint a concern for $ETSY during holiday season?

Nope. It's a problem for other e-tailers, but doesn't seem to be an issue for Etsy.
5/6 Image I: The chicken-and-egg problem to build a marketplace, and how $ETSY solves the problem when they enter a new market

Image II: In UK, and Germany, half of the GMS comes from domestic sellers.
