Finally got a reply from Etsy

Hi-

Your shop was shut down because it was in violation of our terms of use.

Etsy Support

Okay so um, what violation?

I feel like I was just kicked out of the office and not allowed to even take my brief case with me. All my customer contacts are there. I can't leave feedback for the last few customers I had.

It took me a full year to write all the copy for my 900+ items, all my copy and all my photos have been confiscated.

I thought for sure someone hacked into my etsy. I am flabbergasted that it was Etsy who deactivated my shop without any warning.

What kind of an organization does that?

I wonder what I did to make them shut my shop down?

??#&*)@?

And now my only income is gone.

If my customers see this, please contact me via the blog. I am NOT out of business. In fact I have been making stock like crazy from 9 AM until sometimes past midnight to get ready for the holiday season.

Freaking out! My Etsy Shop is closed

I woke up this morning to an email from Etsy Support that says:

Etsy Account Closure

Hello,

This email is to notify you that your Etsy account has been closed. If this is an error, please contact Etsy Support at support@etsy.com to have it corrected. Otherwise, we have enjoyed your company and wish you all the best.

Team Etsy

I go to my shop and sure enough, it's NOT THERE!

I have emailed them twice but all I got was an auto reply saying someone will reply within 24 hours. I'm losing sales and customers while my shop is down.

I am wondering if it is possible for a shop to be hacked into, and some strange person deactivated my shop.

Advice anyone?

Up until 1AM listing Halloween Buttons

Happy Halloween from Portable Graffiti.
This is one of my favorite holidays, so I listed lots of choices of Halloween buttons.

Today is the Day! Turning my living room into a work space

My bedroom is busting at the seams with buttons. I have no other choice but to turn the living room into more work space. Today is the day. So, off to do that. Should be some photos later.

Brand New Button Designs added tonight

New buttons added tonight.

This week's work list consists of:
Pulling all the buttons from stock that need new photos.
Taking new photos.
Relisting all the expired buttons that have been waiting for new photos.
Make more Christmas-Yule-Winter-Fall-Holiday type buttons.

Busy busy

Been too busy making buttons to blog here. But will have some posts coming soon.

Rare Sale - Don't miss it.

If you have been thinking about getting some of my buttons, right now is a good time to do that. I rarely have a sale because it's difficult to do when most of the buttons are just $1.50.

But bills are past due and I really must have sale.

Enjoy choosing 10 buttons for just $10 with this listing.

867 listings of buttons. They are not all pictured here, but you'll see them all in the shop. Lots of new ones, not pictured here were added to the shop in the last 2 days.
