This happened to me. Created 100 quality listings following the rules to a T. Etsy banned my store shut it down with no explanation and didnt get back to me upon my inquiries into the matter. Very discouraging. It was all my own original creations too.

Hi Hannah, Thank you so much for the helpful information! I'm new to Etsy, and your channel has been incredibly valuable to me. I have a request: could you make a detailed video with examples and explanations about trademarks? It’s quite stressful for a beginner like me to understand what is allowed and what isn’t. Thanks again, and you’ve gained a new subscriber!

Thank you so much. Uber helpful as always. The CF bot told me that they have a team that vets uploaded designs to make sure that they aren't stolen. I find that hard to believe.

Been watching a bunch of your vid. Just found your channel. All great stuff. So question on the copyright and trademark. It’s one thing to ensure your idea has not been previously copyrighted, but are you actually copywriting or trademarking all of your designs? Is that recommended?

[christina]

Thank you.. ❤ It's really so aggravating that people are allowed to trademark very common, even two word phrases.. I don't think it's fair or right. I can see someone being able to trademark a common phrase for a store name... but for exclusive rights to put on tshirts, etc? It isn't ethical, imo.... I'm just venting here lol... I wracked my brain for a phrase for a design I came up with, finally thought of it, put it on my shirt, fell in love with it.... checked the trademark and sure enough, it's pending trademark. So unfair. It's like they are trying to limit competition instead of just competing in the marketplace.. not cool, imo.

Can you do a video on what to name your POD shop?

[fmilanelli]

Hi Hannah and audience, thanks for the great videos. I have a doubt about the bundles of designs downloaded from Creative Fabrica, which I saw in another videos that it is apparently prohibited on Etsy because it excludes the creative element which is necessary to be sold on Etsy. However, as I do not have the skill to make good designs myself, what I usually do is to download some of these ready to use designs, the ones that are full POD licence off course, and change them, change colours, put some new textures, distress, stroke or add or exclude some elements to it. I wonder if that still qualifies as a stolen design if that was the case? I saw so many videos about this but none are clear enough. If someone knows the answer I'd highly appreciate to hear! Thanks.

Hello, I’m just starting my print on demand business, what I’m struggling with is the dimensions of each product, can you make a video on dimensions of each product. For example muscle shirts, candles, gym bags etc. please and thank you for all your videos it’s been really helpful in my journey so far

[mohammad.arif]

Informative! I'm designer....i need your help to build a pod shop...

[jlefty]

Creative Fabrica's commercial license does not give someone the right to resell their designs as-is. They may be used as a component of another design created by someone to sell.

I just checked amazon and they have tons of items with titles that use the phrases glitter/3D/glow in the dark. Can you please clarify?

Hi hannah need thumbnail designer at cheap rates?

[HudsonPomeranian]

I have a YouTube channel. I put my dog's picture on a T-shirt and also put the name of my channel on shirt in text on my Etsy store. Is this alright? I have a different email for my YouTube channel as well. Am I okay with Etsy for promoting my channel like this? or No.

[rashelginzburg]

Can I write in a title “inspired by Taylor Swift”?

[caliiinoel]

hit my 1, 000th sale on etsy last month and got permanently banned the next day 😪

[madebychristie]

There's aways a reason a shop gets banned from Etsy. They are never 'banned for no reason".
