Etsy removed listings for creativity standards

Jump to solution

Hello

Etsy deactivated my bestseller listing yesterday. I received an order on it and in the process of “auto renew sold” my listing was deactivated for creativity standards. I am selling this design since December 2018 and it is sold 500 times.

This is my fifth listing deactivated by error. Based on my previous experience I did reverse image search. But it is not available anywhere for sell. My photo is used by a graphic designer in Pakistan to showcase her work on UPWORK. I am now in the process of getting it removed. It is also used as a Facebook a cover photo by a real estate broker. I wonder if my listing is flagged due to all this.

Out of 4 listings deactivated previously, 2 were on amazon USA and I got them removed. I have sent the proof to Etsy. I hope Etsy reinstate my listings.

I have reported 45 listings to amazon and they have removed it. Google search shows that my stolen images are on Aliexpress and Shein. I am located in India and these Chinese websites are banned here due to data protection laws. so I am not able to file infringement report. I hope Etsy understands this frustration and limitation.

I request Etsy authorities to look into this.

Thank you.
