Noticed Items on Competitor Site listing with term ZAZZLE

I noticed when doing a search for something Zazzle related that the first site that came up was ETSY. Fonts, Licenses, Pillows? Just thought I'd make you aware, not sure if it's anything of note or to be concerned about, just thought it odd.

I ran a search on "zazzle pillows," and about halfway down the page, I found Etsy. I clicked the link and the page was void of any Zazzle pillows. The position for such a link depends on the search engine you're using. I use Duck Duck Go, so if you use Google, it's likely to be different. However, it looks to me as if Etsy is doing something similar to eBay where, no matter what you search on, the listing in the search engine will come up saying something like, "Yes, we've got [pillows, or whatever]. I consider it a dumb thing to do, and I assume other people who see it on a somewhat consistent basis will do what I've done, which is to stop clicking on the false claims.

There is  (was) a listing for a Zazzle pillow on Etsy, I saw it. It may have since been edited? But the search results take a while to update when changes are made. I checked the relevant search results to see where they led. Hence I know the listings exist.

Did you see actual Zazzle pillows on Etsy? Or were they pillows where a person might have used Zazzle as a keyword?
