Manual review after 1st sale

[Daveh83]

Is this speculation or any evidence to this? Is this why so many get banned after 1st sale ??? Am thinking if getting a new account but might now use pics I take my self and not digital mockups ??? That might be why I keep getting banned.

It's not just the photos you use, it's the price of the product.
It is also publishing not so quickly after creating the account. When publishing you should place real photos if possible, delete the metadata of the photos.
Use a good quality Residential IP.
send the product quickly, enter the tracking number on time

Am guessing that Dosent ensure they won’t ban it though

I got ask for id after first sale. Is this for all new accounts normal now?

I had this account for 4 month. I posted 1 then and took it down to test. Now 4 month later I posted couple and no problem till first sale. They put you in vacation mode till you send them id.

correct that is not going to guarantee it. but you can try

The bot is programmed to ask for ID etc after first sale,not when you open a shop.
Etsy sales is very slow,charging a fee for opening a shop is a new source of revenue.

Ok,so they changed their policy.

[seller0]

If you get id right after opening the shop something is wrong.

agreed - being asked right away is likely something wrong in the account creation/setup

did they ask the id 2 times when you create and after sale ? maybe they couldnt confirm it at first and ask again

This happened to me with my mother's account, but there was actually information that did not match, the age and the address of the bank account were not the same as that of Etsy. Do they always verify now?

Well, Spanish accounts? I don't think ETSY can read the age and address of bank account. From what I have tested, EU accounts accept banks from different names

For Etsy,name of the bank account must match the name you registered with Etsy,age of your mother and address I dont think they care or even check.
if your mother has passed away,should her account be closed?

I made an Etsy account months ago using a friend's details. I didn't make the first sale until a few months later, as the items I initially listed were crap that no one wanted.
My first sale was something digital that doesn't comply with Etsy's policies. The account is still live, I wasn't asked for verification nor was the shop put into Vacation mode.

I made an account weeks ago using my mother's name. The first sale was a few days later, it was another problematic digital item, they asked for verification.
Maybe Etsy is just starting to do this or is it random?

Because they verified it when you created the store
