What we need from you — Etsy
Etsy search rewards complete, honest listings: strong first photos, all 13 tags, full attributes and a clear policy set. This is what we collect to build listings that meet Etsy's own visibility requirements.
Shop & policies
- ✓Shop name and URL, shop language and currency
- ✓Your return and exchange policy — Etsy requires one on the listing, even if it is 'no returns'
- ✓Processing time per item type, and whether items are ready to ship or made to order
- ✓Shipping profiles data: services, costs — or packed weight and size for calculated shipping
- ✓If anyone else helps make your products: production partner details, as Etsy asks
- ✓Selling to the EU: manufacturer / GPSR information for your products where it applies
Product data & photos
- ✓Category for each item, and the details that make it yours: story, age for vintage, provenance
- ✓Materials list (Etsy allows up to 13) and attributes: colour, size, dimensions, personalisation options
- ✓Price, your SKU, and quantity — including how one-of-one items should be handled
- ✓Honest condition description for vintage and used parts
- ✓Your original photos — up to 20 per listing; we will also plan the order they appear in
The Etsy rules we build to
- ✓Titles within Etsy's 140 characters — the item and its key traits, no repetition, no price or shipping text
- ✓All 13 tags used, written around how collectors and buyers actually search
- ✓Primary photo high-resolution — Etsy recommends 2000 px or more — a single finished product, clear and well-lit, no collages
- ✓Category chosen as specifically as possible, with attributes completed for that category
- ✓A return policy set on every listing (one of Etsy's stated search-visibility requirements)
- ✓Condition shown honestly in photos and words — editing never beautifies wear or damage away
Working together — billing & approvals
- ✓The legal name and address for our invoices to you, and the email invoices should go to
- ✓Who approves samples and batches — plus a backup contact for when they are away
- ✓Anything time-sensitive we should plan around: launch dates, restock dates, sales events
Etsy work is delivered as edited photo sets plus completed listing content for you to paste or import in Shop Manager — we never ask for your Etsy login.
No Etsy shop yet? Starting from zero
- ✓Create your Etsy account and open the shop: shop name, language, currency and country
- ✓Add your payment account for payouts and a billing card for Etsy fees
- ✓Provide the tax information Etsy requests for sellers in your country
- ✓Set your shop policies and your first shipping profiles
- ✓Your shop activates with its first listing — which is exactly where our free sample process starts
Every step above is done by you, in your own name. Never share identity documents, bank details or verification codes with any service provider — including us. Once your store is open, the checklist above is everything we need, and our sample-first process takes it from there.
What we do for Etsy automotive sellers
Etsy is the opposite of Amazon: buyers here are hunting for the unique, the original and the story behind it. The work is presentation and trust — making a 40-year-old part look worth its price while showing its true condition more clearly, not less.
First-Image Impact
The thumbnail that wins the click in search: clean background or a tasteful setting, correct colour, the part's best angle first — with detail and condition shots following in a deliberate order.
Condition-True Retouching
Dust, lighting and background distractions removed; patina, wear and flaws left visible and clear. Buyers of vintage parts return items that were over-beautified — our editing protects your feedback, not just your photos.
Titles, Tags & Attributes
Searchable titles written around how collectors search — make, model, years, part name, OEM references — with all 13 tags used properly, materials and attributes completed, and personalisation fields set up where you offer them.
Custom & Made-to-Order Presentation
For fabricators and custom shops: option and finish galleries, size/scale photos, example-work sets and clear 'what you receive' images that reduce questions and returns.
Shop Sections & Branding
Logical shop sections by marque, model or product type, a consistent visual style across hundreds of one-off items, and banner/branding graphics in your shop's identity.
One-of-One, at Volume
Classic-parts shops list unique items constantly. Our pipeline handles one-of-one listings in batches — photos cleaned, content written, specifics completed — without slowing your shop down.
Who this is for — and what you receive
- ✓Vintage and classic car parts sellers (Mercedes, Porsche, BMW, VW, British classics and more)
- ✓Custom fabrication shops — brackets, mounts, interior and trim pieces
- ✓Automotive sign, poster and garage-art sellers
- ✓Car accessory makers — covers, organisers, personalised items
- ✓Breakers and restorers listing unique parts one by one
What you receive
- ✓Edited photo sets in listing order, named by your SKU or title
- ✓Completed listing content — titles, tags, materials, attributes, descriptions
- ✓Shop section structure and branding graphics
- ✓A simple batch sheet so one-of-one items never get mixed up
Etsy FAQs
Will editing make my vintage parts look 'too new'?
Only if you ask us to — and we will advise against it. Our standard for vintage is condition-true: clean, well-lit and accurate. Collectors pay premiums for honest originality, and returns fall when photos match the item.
Can you write listings for parts I can't identify?
We research markings, part numbers and catalogue references and tell you what we can verify. Where identification is uncertain, the listing says so honestly rather than guessing — that protects you and your buyers.
Do you need my Etsy login?
No. We deliver photos and completed listing content in a spreadsheet or document; you paste or import it into your own shop.
Can you help a shop that lists 50+ unique items a month?
Yes — that is exactly the batch pipeline this service is built for, with a saved style profile so every item looks like it came from the same shop.
Send us your hardest listing — free
One awkward, badly-lit, hard-to-present item. We will edit its photos and complete its listing free, so you can judge the standard on the work that actually matters.
