Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

Hello

I have 4 etsy accounts (Norway, Slovakia, Slovenia, Bulgaria, and Ireland) and I'm using firefox portable to manage them (same user), Etsy closed 1 account after reaching 8 sales (digital), and today 2 on the same day after reaching 7 sales,
I'm selling perfectly legal stuff ( dropshipping from Aliexpress).

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

digital goods and dropshipping from 4 accounts from the same user is most likely the problem here

Welcome to the forum - all the best as you master stealth :thumb:


OP, you're business model is rough as Captain indicated.

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

thats your reason - Aliexpress stuff they are cracking down hard on

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

Do your dropshiped items ship from China?

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

unfortunately they have really put the hammer down recently.. I typically see the highest sales with direct China-sourced products however they are busting them left & right. I have had to change many methods (tags, titles, descriptions, photos, etc.)

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

Yes, some are shipped from Europe wearhouses

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

what is the problem with tags and titles, I usually use erank to find the best tags so why I shouldn't use the best performing tags?

I started a store on June 26, and until today there are 4 sales. But unfortunately, it was suspended today. I don’t know it happened. Does anyone solve this problem?

It's Ayden, they have a pretty good algorithm dealing with banks, including the ability to match names and addresses with et si.

My bank pays misnamed collection?

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

Still not on the level to have access to all banking data and crosscheck account numbers with real names.

Not even amazon, stripe can do that.

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

In what category or items-type were you selling?

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

First of all, it must have nothing to do with the product, because many of my friends have encountered this problem.

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

If you google "adyen bank account check" you get their docs pages which says:

"In the bank account check, Adyen verifies that a bank account exists and that the account holder owns it. We perform the check for every bank account that you add to an account holder."

Amazon doesn't use Adyen, eBay does, and by the looks of the ebay section, stealth is just about killed off too. At least for made up info...

He's right, doesn't matter product, they suspend within a few hours.

Has anyone tested it, and the identity information and IP are in the same city.
The type of ip comes from residential

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

I am not sure that either is necessarily the case. It seems to me they are certainly using bots to pick up or certain listings (lack of description, clearly not handmade item) and also reps are working overtime to take listings down manually. I have noticed that regardless of what I am listing/what price/etc is that items are not indexed immediately and take several days to appear as a result of searches, advertising, etc.-- I am thinking they are taking days to review accounts and some just manage to slip thru the cracks

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

My shop will be indexed after successful registration. I turned on the advertisement, and soon there will be visits. But after I have an order, it is 3 days later. My shop is suspended

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

Shop is lasting several days before suspension? A record surely. Et si are now sending out possible reasons for suspension:

• Items listed for sale don’t meet our handmade, vintage, or craft supply policies
• Shop violates Et si's Intellectual Property Policy
• Items violate our Prohibited Items Policy
• The information provided about the account owner and/or their personal details are inconsistent, incorrect, or closely associated with an account previously removed from Et si

Only last one seems to apply in my cases.

It's still being tested, if anyone already knows the answer, please PM me

Re: Etsy suspend accounts after getting some sales
 

physical or digital items? are they branded/counterfeit?
