Regretsy was a website dedicated to highlighting bizarre, weird or offbeat items offered for sale on the handmade and vintage marketplace Etsy. During its run from September 2009 to January 2013, the site posted hundreds of items with snarky commentary, which eventually led to a book deal for the blogger April Winchell. The site also raised thousands of dollars for charity.[1]

The shutdown of Regretsy was announced on 2013-01-28, and the entire site contents were frozen on 2013-02-01[1]. This "archive" appears to have been online until sometime in August 2013, when the site started redirecting to http://www.aprilwinchell.com/[IAWcite.todayMemWeb]. This redirect was still in place as of 2018-10-23. Since at least 2022-10-24, the website has been replaced with a coming soon page for an archive of the website.
