    Hey, I'm not sure if you've covered this in a previous video but, can you say how much customers contact you if you're not selling a custom product? My main concern is that if I open a shop on Etsy, I'll be overwhelmed with customer enquiries. I know you do custom products which always require the customer to contact you, but do you know how much they would if you didn't?

    Hi Dylan. I am preparing to open my shop on Etsy. The problem is I got suspended after buying some mockups for my would-be listing. Etsy suspended me after trying to buy some more mockups. I still have access to Etsy but it does not let me buy more, all my purchased get declined. Is there anything that I can do to solve this issue? Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for the video. I still have NO reason from Etsy why they closed my shop. I sell handmade rosaries. No copyright issues or any of the others you list. I appealed and asked for the reason. Answer was “our decision is final” and no reason was or has been given. I know of several other shop owners who faced identical closings.

      @@dylanjahraus i want you to understand that Etsy has dug in with not responding to me, again, and with sellers who have likewise been banned. I even tried to make a purchase on Etsy tonight and am banned from buying. Trust me, I violated NO laws/regulations. I understand that copyright and trademark violations comprise the vast majority of seller bans. I’m well versed in copyright law and teach others how to find and use Creative Commons materials. I suspect some eager intern went berserk “finding violations.”

    But Etsy doesn’t seem to mind Temu or Shein product images palmed off as a seller’s product image??? One swimwear sewing pattern seller has 75 items all of which have “stolen” product images. They make a disclaimer in the product description to say that the images are not their own, but are taken from the Internet as a perfect example of what the product should look like (so dishonest and such BS), yet they sell between 20-30 items per day, sorely disrespecting other “honest” sellers. They are getting away with it, so why shouldn’t I do the same because their shops have not been shut down?
