Etsy is also for curators, though (at least a specific kind). You have always been able to sell vintage items on their platform, and antique sellers are curators and restorers.

Before manufactured goods were on the platform, you were basically browsing items that were either handmade or hand curated. It was a much better experience.

Etsy is really for everyone, but the brand image is that it's really artists sales channel.

Based on my experience, curators add an extra 50%+ to the price of a product. Which is the cost of well curated storefront.
