Rather than deleting all that hard work, I just configured all my items to have a 200% mark-up. Should RB ever (re)discover their brains, I can reconfigure it all back again. If not, so what - strangely enough, I still get sales at 200% - I don't know why.

I also have a markup of 250% Did redbubble put your stuff on sale? Even though i have a mark up of 250%, you'll be expecting that the items will be expensive but no. Redbubble put my items on sale. So its not expensive when the buyers buy my stuff.

Thank you for this eye opening video Julian. In fact I signed up with RedBubble a few days ago and uploaded a design yesterday but regrettably neither do I see my shop nor my product (I uploaded only one for trial). I think this is it then, for RedBubble and me.

They have fallen from 24 million to 20 million in just ten months, and this trend is continuing. 4-5 years ago you could still make decent money with them. But then the founder announced that he was retiring and leaving the business to his partner. And that was the beginning of the RB decline and it seems it will not stop until they hit bottom!

I used to buy so many t-shirts off redbubble. They were great quality, properly printed garments that have lasted until today. I still wear those. A couple of years ago I bought one and it had the cheapest, nastiest, plasticky transfer graphic on it. It didn't last one wash before starting to flake. I've not used redbubble since.

I had started Redbubble a while ago with very few designs and found the percentage they were taking too high already (before 2023) and also realised that many of their products are very low quality. I started learning more about sustainability and realised that I don’t want to support them anymore and then, what what was the final straw for me, was when I participated in a thing that was a collab with an animated series I was not only excluded but also got a warning when I forgot to put the logo of the series on one of the designs I uploaded. I contacted them and tried to correct that (mistakes happen!) but they didn’t even answer and just stated that if I try uploading for that project again my whole account will be closed down. That made me realise they don’t care about the designers at all!

Wait. I get walking away from a store and leaving it open. Did you really CLOSE your account and cut off any money that would have come from leaving it open? If the designs are up why not just take whatever money comes from it.

I have kept the stores created from my Redbubble challenge videos open for viewers to checkout, but besides that, my personal stores have been closed. For me, keeping them open isn’t even worth the headspace anymore. Sure I could have kept them open, but then that’s one more thing/platform I feel the need to post on to keep it from declining when I could be spending that time elsewhere and seeing 10-20x better results. But I do agree, in most cases people should just keep them open and receive payouts here and there.

I think I'm gonna stop uploading too. Their search engine in the website no longer works properly. I relied on it to look for unsaturated niches by searching what I'm inspired to create, but since AI has been intergrated to the search engine it has gotten tough to see which niches are saturated and which aren't.

They don't have any respect for artists, I was with them around 5 years, built up around 400 followers and had just started getting some decent sales when they suspended me, I never copied or made any copywrited artwork, I believe the suspension was because of a purge where thousands of artists were just thrown away to save on server costs.

I'll be leaving ASAP.
