Research: Did Society6 get bought by Amazon?

2019/02/19

I had this really interesting search term “did society6 get bought by amazon” for my blog during January 2019 and I thought it might be funny to investigate a bit.

To be honest, and to not put too many of your hopes into that: I did not find anything that REALLY clarifies this situation but I do not believe in it. Why would Amazon buy an Asian company (Spoilers: That assumption is a mistake!) when they already have Amazon Merch?

Here are some interesting finds though, reading them was worth my while:

Society6 Reviews on Trustpilot are not as good as one might expect
My two orders so far haven’t been a success story either. I am not sure I would buy from them again… Mugs arrived as puzzle and the custom fees are HIGH.
Amazon counterfeiters wreak havoc on artists and small businesses is an article on CNBC and explains it all brilliantly! #stopimagetheft
The Amazon.com Seller Profile of Society6 makes me also question whether I should still sell my photos on their products…
Does Societ6 belong to the Leaf Group? This will need some more clarification from my point of view…. Oh yes, it does. So not an Asian company? Who would have guessed…
This is probably the most detailled Society6 review by one person and another surprise: Society6 is based in Santa Monica.

I’d like to present my most popular photo edit which is not only available on MANY products from Zazzle but also from a lot of other POD websites. I’d like to present the most beautiful products for you, maybe you like it too 🙂

#330133 Santa Monica Pier Grey Sparkles – buy as art prints, canvas prints or other formats from Photo4Me

Photo4Me let’s you create wonderful wall art, mainly posters, canvas prints or acrylic prints. I have not yet sold anything on there and they only let you upload 1 file every 24 hours so it’s a slow earner.

Santa Monica Pier Grey Sparkles Photo Edit Shirt from Printallover.me

Printallover.me is a very interesting site. It’s speciality are all over prints, which you can see on this t-shirt. They also feature canvas bags, pillows, shirts, dresses and even curtains! My account over there is also pretty new, no sales yet.

Grey Sparkling Santa Monica Pier Sport Metal Watch on Cowcow.com

On Cowcow.com I already had one small sale which is not too bad. They have a gazillion of products to add your photos to and very low prices. Quality is not the best with all of them but I can’t find many bad reviews.

Sparkling grey Santa Monica Pier Framed Art Print from Society6.com

Society6.com does have beautiful art prints and the usual alternatives (canvas print, tote bags, pillows, wall clocks). Their latest products are rugs and shower curtains but you need huge photos for them. I am waiting on my first sale there, too.

Sparkling Grey Santa Monica Pier Greeting Card from RedBubble

RedBubble features posters, greeting cards, the usual art prints, laptop and smartphones cases and various t-shirts and alike.

I am also pretty new on Cafepress and have not yet sold very much. I think they offer a good variety of products, definitely more than you can find on Zazzle. And the quality is better than on Cowcow.com. Would love to see you over there 🙂

I have also created a Pinterest board for this design:
