PIN CAMPAIGN LIVE Shop is back open! 
While I'm slowly implementing more steps to make sure I'm GPSR compliant. My shop is back open again and ready for orders! 
For folks needing an EU #GPSR rep, maybe consider Corvo Cattivo. They're a "Mom & Pop shop" that make D&D system kits and woven throw rugs, but now offer to act as EU rep for individual creators & DIYers. No frills barebones service, but looks more affordable. I've not yet signed up, but I like their approach & pricing.

@jessienab GPSR is a mess, I've paused sales to the EU for now. (Switzerland is still okay because they're not in the EU or the EEA! And UK is still okay if you can exclude sales to Northern Ireland.)
Stickers aren't exempt, at least from what I've read :(
For the EU rep, I'm considering Corvo Cattivo. They've started up specifically to help individual makers & DIYers and seem more affordable than others. Their site is here:

The answer from the European Parliament again only mentions artwork as a subset of antiques.
It does not address any of my questions, although they note they are preparing clearer guidelines for small businesses.
That maybe, hopefully, will include creative artists? I shan't hold my breath.

A good look at the Q&A that the EU put on the safety gate site.

Just come across this Q&A regarding #GPSR on the EU safety gates (Download the Questions and Answers PDF). It confirms that all digital goods (software, etc.) fall under it. Also deals with the Digital Services Act and second hand goods.
Looking at so many individuals and small businesses hurt by the #GPSR ...
I would love for Governments everywhere to recognise free trade, and free movement, as human rights.
Fat chance of that happening, though.
If I still ran a small software company, I'd have to halt sales to the EU as a result of the #GPSR.
@Anneheathen I'm just baffled that they've made it all-or-nothing in the settings. No way to say "I'll ship anywhere but the EU" - so many other platforms let you specify exactly which counties you can ship to.
This is going to be a huge blow to Etsy's bottom line - ginormous - if sellers comply with the new rule en masse. Essentially no sales - physical or digital - to the EU, except perhaps the very largest shops. Of course they're not keen to let sellers know anything about #GPSR.
