Re: Two of my listings got deactivated.

We cannot see your inactive items.  Did you use any prohibited terms?  As you sell jewellery, I'm thinking maybe you used ivory or amber.  Did you use any designer names?

Yes I did. I used the word amber.

Re: Two of my listings got deactivated.

Since we can't see inside your shop manager, it's probably best if you list the title and tags of the affected listings, however it could also be something in a photo.

Most likely it's a mistake and your listings will be reinstated within about 7-10 days.

Betreff: Two of my listings got deactivated.

Yes, if you want you can post your title and tags here and we can help figure it out with you. 

Most likely it’s a bot error and will be reactivated again in a few days. 

I did see another necklace with ‚trippy‘ and ‚psychedelic‘ in the title. Wouldn’t be surprised if a bot connects these to drugs!?!

Re: Two of my listings got deactivated.

Your carnelian necklace has the word "healing" in the title, and in the description you describe the metaphysical / healing nature of carnelian. Did your 2 deactivated listings make similar claims?

Etsy sellers cannot make medical / metaphysical claims in their listings, it's against policy.

Metaphysical services or items

Metaphysical services, such as reiki and spell casting, are prohibited on Etsy. With this in mind, tarot or psychic readings that include a physical or digital copy of said readings (e.g., a recording, email, or tarot spread photo) may be sold on Etsy. 

Supplies related to spell work, such as herbs, crystals, candles, and tinctures, may be sold on Etsy as long as they are not listed with metaphysical claims.

Re: Two of my listings got deactivated.

I didn’t see the word healing. 

That’s most likely it.

Were you using bullet casings?

Spent shell casings are not allowed to be sold on Etsy.

Re: Two of my listings got deactivated.

Are spent casings still prohibited? There’s a bunch being listed and sold by several shops. I can’t seem to get any information about it

@JewelryFromVenus: Just so you know for the future, any Etsy URL that includes "/your/" can only be seen by you.
