I had an Etsy shop. I had a no return policy, but would consider a dialog if I had made a mistake, sent the wrong item in error, or if the customer had a similar issue. I sold vintage items. Each listing explained that old items are not new items. Certain wear and tear was pointed out in each listing as appropriate. I sold an antique Qing Dynasty robe that was over 100 years old. The buyer loved it as we communicated before the sale. I sold the garment, packed it, insured it and shipped it. It arrived right on time. I did not hear from the customer for three weeks. The buyer never contacted me, he went to Etsy and filed a "Customer Protection Program" complaint. His complaint was that it was not what he expected and the lining was a little faded. I told him I do not accept returns, and the garment had no issues other than what I explained in the listing as well as photos. He followed up with Etsy and said there was a tear in the back. An outright lie. After a few weeks since I had no further communication with the seller, Etsy said that I was required to send a refund and pay for return shipping. I refused. Etsy closed my shop. Etsy closed my shop while I was out of state due to a mandatory hurricane evacuation mandate. When I returned home, I had to liquidate my stock and send everything to auction. In the process I injured my leg and ended up in the hospital.  I do not want to do business with Etsy. Etsy is still trying to charge my account over $1,000. I want them to leave me alone. Honor my no return policy and close my shop forever. I will continue to advocate for unfair practices by Etsy for myself and other sellers until Etsy closes my shop and leaves me alone.
