Voting Question: Where can I buy handcrafted ethnic items online?

Every once in a while, I used to hear about great sites that promote fair trade and allow less fortunate people to handcraft items to sell. I don't care where the items are from; I appreciate handmade things from every countries and crafted by every ages. I would really like some unique things, such as bags, jewelry, or kitchen items. I know places like this exist; for example when I go to Guatemala, they have great markets where you can buy amazing goods for a fair (US) price, which in turn helps the sellers immensely. I just need to know where to find these "treasure spots" online! Any help would be appreciated :) Thanks!

Resolved Question: Copyright law on handcraft items?

My situation is, I have an online store at Etsy.com where I sell a particular handcrafted item. I will not link to the items, or say exactly what they are but what I will say is that with these items there isn't a situation where it's just a coincidence that someone happened to create the same product. With that said, I have a problem where there is another store at Etsy who has replicated over 3/4th of my products. There are several sellers who sell the same products, and that's wonderful. But what flags a unique situation in this case is that this lady copies my exact design, my exact materials, my exact ideas, and then adds or subtracts one minor detail. I've contacted Etsy to look what it is that I could do. I would like this to cease, and I would like to peacefully sell my possess items without having to worry about this lady duplicating everything I've created. I'd also like to mention that I am not the only one she does this to. She's done it to at least five others who sell the same products as us, but those have been removed. I'm very unfamiliar with copyright laws. Is there any law that even pertains to this particular situation? If there is anyone that is an expert in this, and wouldn't mind sending me an email (lpangm03 [at] yahoo.com) , I would greatly appreciate it. I'll be willing to give specifics in email, I just do not want to mention too much here, in case I receive flagged for advertising.

I have an old Martin Handcraft Alto saxophone from around 1925 that is pretty tarnished up. There are no dents or anything, just the finish is dark and tarnished. I was wondering if it would hurt the value of it if I tried something like Tarn-X or a similar cleaner?

Resolved Question: So many problems, can't sleep?

I have a lot of problems! First off my dad's losing his business. Secondly I'm losing one of my biggest dreams. I wanted to become a schoolteacher but I failed one of the tests so now they won't accept me. I haven't told my parents b/c I don't know how to. My older sister took the (handcraft) test a year ago and passed it with flying colors. The silly thing is, that I was always the best student from the 5 of us. Thirdly, I think I'm starting to suffer from insomnia. I can't fall asleep easily and when I do I can't snooze long enough. I can't talk to a psychologist b/c I would have to ask my parents to look one. And I don't want my dad to know b/c he has enough probs. I don't want to tell my mom b/c she always gets mad when I tell her about my probs,so I never tell her when something goes wrong. I have so many probs and I don't know what to do??
