However, I’m stuck on one issue: one of my products keeps getting flagged for Etsy’s creativity standards violation and I can’t figure out how to resolve it.
If anyone has dealt with this before and knows how to fix it, I’d really appreciate the help — it would make a big difference.
Cant help directly on the Etsy creativity standards side, but hopefully other members who've dealt with it can weigh in. Etsy policy flags can be frustrating to untangle without someone who has been through it.
happy to be here 👋
I’m from Germany and currently running multiple online stores in the dropshipping space, as well as building a fashion brand. Really excited to connect with like-minded people, exchange ideas, and see how others approach their processes.
Always open to learning, improving, and meeting other hustlers in the space 🤝
Looking forward to connecting with you all!
Good to have you here. We'll be actively growing Dropship Community and bringing more sellers in, so feel free to jump into any conversations that catch your eye. That's usually where the best exchanges happen.
Just curious too, how did you get started running multiple stores, and what pulled you into building your own fashion brand on top of that?
Turns out the de minimis loophole closure hit harder than most people expected. Daily duty-free package volume from China to the US dropped from 4 million to around 600,000 packages. That's an 85% collapse.
The dropshippers adapting fastest are just shifting their target markets. UK, Australia, EU ~ lower duty exposure, cheaper CPMs on Meta, less saturation. The US isnt the only market and right now it might not
