Etsy VAT/Tax Pricing Issue on Larger Framed Sizes – Worth Checking Your Listings
Hi everyone! I’m one week in from launching my Etsy store and I just wanted to flag something I’ve noticed with my Etsy listings in case anyone else is having the same issue. My PrintShrimp prices normally get adjusted by Etsy to show the buyer a higher tax/VAT-inclusive price. For example, I have an A5 set to €20.99 in PrintShrimp, and Etsy displays it as €25.82. I noticed something strange when I turned on a 15% Etsy sale - some of my largest framed prints were actually showing a higher “Now” price than the crossed-out original price. After going through all my variations, I think I’ve found the problem. Most of my sizes are getting the normal Etsy tax/VAT adjustment. For example: 20×28 framed: €144.99 base price → €178.34 on Etsy But my three largest framed sizes aren’t getting the adjustment at all: 20×30: €154.99 → Etsy €154.99 24×32: €159.99 → Etsy €159.99 24×36: €169.99 → Etsy €169.99 So when I activate my 15% sale, Etsy seems to calculate/display the sale using the tax-inclusive pricing in the background while showing the unadjusted base price as the crossed-out price. For example, my 24×36 showed “Now €177.72” with €169.99 crossed out 🤦‍♀️ - making it look like the price actually went UP during the sale. I’ve also been having an issue where I can’t edit the prices or re-enable previously hidden size variations on these existing Etsy listings, even though I can edit things like the title. New listings pushed through PrintShrimp are receiving my updated base prices correctly. I’ve done Etsy’s recommended troubleshooting (cache/cookies etc.) and it hasn’t fixed it, and am still ongoing with Etsy customer service about this variation/tax display issue. If you’re using PrintShrimp with Etsy, especially if you’re running a sale, I’d definitely check your largest framed variations on the actual customer-facing listing. Has anyone else noticed this happening with the 20×30, 24×32 or 24×36 framed sizes, or found a fix?🩷
