Yeh well Etsy is now introducing a new advertisement scheme. With the new Offsite Ads program, Etsy will advertise sellers' products on Google, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Bing. However if someone clicks on those ad's and then buys a product the shop owner needs to pay an advertising fee to Etsy (15%).

@KDA Drew: Well this fee is for the sellers not for the buyers.
