What was wrong, in plain words
- The homepage 'Where is my order' banner linked to a different store's website.
- The homepage promised 30-day returns and fast delivery to most countries. Every other page said 14 days and Australia only, 10 to 19 working days.
- Crossed-out prices on 20 variants that had never sold at the higher price.
- Claims nobody could prove, like '100% genuine leather' and 'handmade'.
- Merchant Center showed a street address that the website did not show anywhere.
What Google approved anyway: a domain about a month old and zero orders. Real screenshots; store name, website and account ID hidden.
