Reply to "Advertising on Etsy"

Here's this topic discussed on the Texas Cottage Food Law website FAQ's. It's pretty clear that the way ETSY functions would be a violation.

"Q41. Can I sell my items on the internet?

No.

Q42. No internet sales? Does this mean I can't have a web site?

Answer: You CAN have a web site, Facebook page, Twitter, etc. You can use whatever method of promoting your business that you want to. You simply can't allow the purchase to take place over the internet, such as setting up a shopping cart and letting customers "click and buy" on your web site, or a shop on Etsy or eBay. This ensures that the spirit of the bill is upheld: local, face-to-face sales, where the customer knows the person who made their food."
