Relist a listing after an Etsy ban

Shop suspended, or a listing that stopped selling? Your listings stay in Etsnipe. One click on “Restock”, fresh photos, and you publish again.


Your listings stay in Etsnipe

Every listing you create with Etsnipe is kept in My Listings. It doesn't depend on your Etsy shop: if the shop closes, you keep the title, description, tags, prices, variations and photos.

Restock a listing, step by step

The Restock button is part of the Advanced plan. It doesn't make an identical copy: it sends the listing back to the Listing Generator to give it fresh photos.

  1. Click “Restock” in My Listings

    On the listing card, or in its detail panel. The listing opens in the Listing Generator.
  2. Check the product

    Its photos, variations and prices are already filled in. Prices are kept as they are: your margin isn't applied a second time.
  3. Tick the photos to redo

    In the Photos step, pick the auto prompt: it recreates each ticked photo in a new setting, without changing the product.
  4. Decide on the text

    Turn on “Listing text” for a new title, description and tags (1 credit). Leave it off to keep the original title, tags and materials.
  5. Review, then publish

    In the Preview & send step, read the listing, reorder the photos if needed, then send it to My Listings or publish it on Etsy with the extension.
Looking for the Restocker tab?
It's gone. Everything now goes through the “Restock” button in My Listings, then the Listing Generator. Same result, fewer screens.

What the auto prompt does

You don't pick any scene. The AI looks at your photo, writes a different setting for each image, then recreates your exact product in that setting. The supplier's photo is never published as is.

Real auto prompt results, starting from the supplier's photo.

The listing isn't in Etsnipe?

Start again from the product: in the Import step of the Listing Generator, paste the product's AliExpress link (Advanced), or use the extension on its AliExpress page. The full walkthrough is in Create a product listing from A to Z.

To avoid another ban

  • Don't relist an exact copy. Fresh photos and regenerated text keep you from rebuilding the old shop word for word.
  • No raw supplier photos. The auto prompt recreates every photo instead of reusing the AliExpress one.
  • Go slow. A few listings a day at first, rather than your whole catalog at once.
  • Re-read Etsy's rules. Some products are banned or restricted: check before you relist.
