"Duplicate" item question across stores

[Amanda23]

Hello!

I want to condense my stores a bit and would like to republish one of my items in my main store. The issue is, I would like to leave it as "direct link only" in the original store where I uploaded it because I'm pretty confident it's being referred by a 3rd party (I don't know who) and I've advertised it over time and there are links "out there." 

Would this be a "duplicate" item issue? I don't want to break rules, but I also want to do what's best for my business and the customers. 

Thanks for your help!

You will be ok it will remove from the main Zazzle pages but still be live for being referred by a 3rd party .if I am ever going to give up on something or make someone custom work. I will always put them onto direct link only. we were told this by Zazzle 10 years ago because the referred by a 3rd party. people don't like it when you delete something because it messes up there boards. And leads to a dead link for them. Hope this helps you

Thank you! I can see why that would be frustrating for 3rd parties. I appreciate the confirmation 🙂
