Etsy-quette ?: Today was the first day I used Etsy. I saw something I liked and it said "One left and one in a cart". I took that to mean there were 2

So I ordered the thing. It got to a part of the checkout process and said "One in stock and in two people's carts". I hurried through the rest of the checkout, in effect stealing it out of someone else's cart.

Was this a total violation of etiquette? How big of an ass am I? Would the ref call this an allowable body check into the boards or am I going to the penalty box?

All good, no foul. People will add things to their cart and then not check out. -- nm - Krusty Dec 31, 14:24 5
