Can somebody from Etsy support answer what is this?
Shop has been working since 2015 and has always been in the European Union, Latvia. Shop sells vintage jewelry and had a successful business here with thousands of customers and almost all 5 star reviews for 9 years now.
Any help is appreciated and thank you in advance.
It appears the shop is open.
@PiecesOfMePaperCraft well, that was relatively fast...
Good to see the shop has re-opened.
Yes, it does appear that the OP's friend's shop reopened. Some truly wonderful items! Hopefully it's smooth sailing for a while.
ETA - Well, this reply didn't nest properly, sorry.
