Handmade Policy Violation last Warning?
 

I'm getting automated AI handmade policy violations and its the last warning before suspension...

A) The product is handmade..., so annoying. I just removed any other listings with similar pictures/layouts since they are not even the big money makers
(I use all my own photos, my own description, my own everything, so its not that)

B) They are somewhat foo foo items, though that's not what is causing the trigger.

Do policy violations disappear after awhile? I know on ebay, like 6 months after the last one it goes away.

Does the samething apply to etsy? Should I just pause this store and wait 6 months? And run another store in the meantime?

Should I also send an appeal/contact etsy customer support to remove the incorrect violation? (even if the product is foo foo)? Or should I not contact them, so I don't bring random attention to the account?

What would you do?

firstly, for better discussion, can you clarify the kind of goods or at least category/type if you don't want to go into details?

Re: Handmade Policy Violation last Warning?
 

are they made by you or someone who work for you?

I will not contact the support just removing the product affected,
if the photos are from internet they may link them

Re: Handmade Policy Violation last Warning?
 

They're made by me, my own photos, everything is my stuff. Anyways, i decided to just pause the store and open another one for the time being.

Decent idea to get other backup accounts going and rotating
