Etsy Vintage Team

Who can join?

Etsy Vintage Team is a moderated team with the following requirements:

1. The primary focus of your shop must be vintage goods, vintage supplies, or products handmade with true vintage components (not to be confused with "vintage style," retro, or reproduction items.)
2. Your Etsy Shop must have at least 6 months of active history (stocked, sales, feedback), giving you proper time to read and understand Etsy's Terms Of Use for selling vintage, as well as following all the Etsy Do's & Don'ts.
3. You must follow all of Etsy's Tagging Rules concerning vintage for listing your items, and adhere to Etsy's Terms of Use, including listing only vintage items that are 20+ years old and listing handmade-with-vintage items in the handmade categories.
4. An attitude of professionalism is apparent, with thorough descriptions that include age, markings/labels and condition.
5. The tag for the Etsy Vintage team is etsyvintageteam, which may not be used until you are a certified member. This tag is only to be used on your vintage items and hand-crafted items that are made with genuine vintage components.
6. Applications are for ONE Etsy shop each. Additional shops by the same owner must apply separately.
7. Please review the "EVT Active Member Requirements" here http://www.etsy.com/teams/6496/etsy-vintage-team/discuss/9800­876/ to be sure they are acceptable to you before you apply.

Applicants who are intentionally misleading about the age of their items, or who list their items in the wrong category will not be considered for membership.

Your shop will be carefully reviewed by several Membership Committee members. The certification process includes reviewing your products, descriptions, tags, policies and feedback.

**Remember: the goal is to promote vintage on Etsy. If you feel your shop doesn't promote vintage through your vintage goods, supplies or handmade with authentic vintage (20 years or older), then please do not request to join.

Thanks for your interest! If you are comfortable with our high standards, we welcome your application!
