Default etsy questions

my store was closed a few weeks ago. I installed HSS and started a new one, but it was closed before I even took the store live. I had only 1 item up and I had used an old picture (hoping that was the killer). I am going to tray again but have a few questions so I can get this right!

So I have to use all new pictures also is that correct?
How do I tether to a cell phone? I have an iPhone.

Also, a pretty important one for me is will I be able to log back into my old etsy account (for contacts of long term customers etc) from my new IP or will I need to just cut all ties with that account?

Will I be able to use my cell phone to use the Etsy app or my tablet or any other computer I used for my original account or do those IP addresses get linked to my account somehow? I used every computer everywhere to log in and conduct business. Work, tablets, phones, home. I just don't want to get burned again, but I did have my etsy account accessible almost always.

Cannot use old photos at all. Must be all knew/modded.

Search the Et.sy forum we have here a bit. Everything you need to know is already posted recently.

All of your other questions pertain to general stea/lth practices and since you are new, I suggest you read around and also purchase the stea/lth guide. There is much to learn and you will need to refrain from doing many of the things you are used to.

Etsy has really good analytics. In your account, you can see that they track everything; they can tell you where every visitor is coming from, how they go to your store, etc. Do not log into your old etsy account with your new IP solution. Just do it at a coffee shop or similar.

Can only list on Etsy if you create your own items, everything has to be created in its entirety by the you. That's just the way it is on that platform.

Etsy is good for selling supplies for crafters or jewelry makers, the highest volume sellers there are in this category, they get tons of sales but its like between $3-$10 for some little supplies for making earrings and the like. Also vintage items (over 30 years old) sell well.

New IP address, preferably wiped browser/new Windows user account with all cookies/temp files deleted, new gift card, new address, add new name to PP account and do not pay etsy fees with that Paypal account, ever. Build up account with different products and mix in your old ones slowly to avoid being found out.

Hopefully someone else can chime in with France-specific advice.

Create a new email address and add it to Paypal. Paypal lets you have more than one email address on an account. Add this new PP email address as your payment address to your new etsy account.

Use gift cards to pay etsy fees. You can not use the old PP account to pay fees on a new stealth etsy account; you will be found out in 2 seconds flat.
