I have an item hard rejected and it can’t be enhanced or modified (its concept is not matched to its supposed category).

I invested time, effort and money!! in this item and I don’t want to lose it. should I just forget it and start over Or do you have any ideas!!

for me rejected items is the thing of past if you upload continuously than you rejection rate will eventually vanish or more probably decrease.

I perform a dark ritual and send the item through the dimensional void between the worlds, never to be seen again.

I would try to alternate it to fit other category where the approval rate is higher. Or at last give it away as a freebie. And even when you get nothing, you always get experiences :D.

I normally give them away as freebie which can help drive people to you website, if all goes well they see the item you have for sale and buy some.

Give it away on Adobe exchange for free with a link to your portfolio. It should act as a good promo device.
