ETSY PRODUCTS LISTING

HELLO!

I am a responsible Etsy seller and I am a little worried about my Etsy because one of my products was removed from my Etsy and I was informed that Etsy may suspend me in the future. Now please tell me which product should be unlisted that will harm Etsy. Please correct me to increase my knowledge so that I can delete all the products that may be harmful to my Etsy.

Re: ETSY PRODUCTS LISTING

Looks like most of your items are using other's intellectual property/trademarks. The Beatles and AC/DC for example. Most if not all universities trademark their name/logo etc.

Unless you have a license to use these trademarks, you're selling counterfeit items and risk not only being suspended from Etsy, but sued by the companies who hold the rights for these IPs.

Re: ETSY PRODUCTS LISTING

you need to get rid of them all, as most of them infringe on trademarks.

Then just put up ones, that do not use anyone else trademark, no football teams, no group names etc

You need to start again, removing everything using someone else's name. No bands, no colleges, no teams unless you have permission from them.  What you are currently selling classes as counterfeits.  You may well have your shop shut down.

Re: ETSY PRODUCTS LISTING

Oh my goodness, OP.

you need to understand intellectual property. Right now, you're ripe for lawsuits. You cannot use names/images/likeness/team colors (and call out the team) etc...without permission (ie, you have to pay for the rights)...

geeze...shop closure could be the minor thing. I don't know the laws in Pakistan, but here you can go to jail for egregious violations, and I know other countries have similar.
