We are a small bookshop that sells rare academic theological books. Google is not approving many of my books because I don’t have a GTIN or even an ISBN number. Many of our books are antiques and pre-date the use of such. Is there a workaround for this? Thanks.
Hi @TheologicalBook ,
Try setting the following attributes in the product feed:
[identifier_exists] = no
[condition] = used
If Google disapproves the product again and states that it has a GTIN / ISBN, you’ll have to find the number because someone linked the GTIN / ISBN to the product.
Source for more information on products without GTINs: https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/6324461#zippy=%2Cproducts-without-a-gtin
So in the field for ISBN, GTIN, I am writing “no”. In the product category I am using “print books” and I have a custom category that I created that says Antique book, no ISBN or GTIN.
Where is “used”?
Some of the books we’re selling are so rare or unique that I doubt anyone has assigned a GTIN to them.
Thanks.
