Promotions
We will frequently have promotions running throughout the year whether its the grand opening of the site, or conventions such as Blade. Before the beginning of each billing cycle, we will go in and make necessary adjustments for seller's listing fees.
- No Fee Promo - This promotion will be the best opportunity to list your items on the site without incurring the 5% Seller fee or the $5 Lotto fee (see exceptions below).
- Exceptions for this promo are the upgrade options (Featured, Bold, Sales Badge, Subtitle) which will still be billed at the beginning of the month.
- Reduced Fee Promo - This is when we will take a percentage off the listings fee's for a specific time frame. This generally takes place during major conventions such as Blade.
Required Payment for Sellers + Verification
There is a reason why we request all sellers to enter their payment method in when listing an item, that reason is to prevent fraudulent accounts.
This community has had it's fair share of fraudulent users come and go over the years and it has taken its toll. By requiring a valid credit card for anyone who wants to list an item for sale, it will prevent a good amount of bad blood on the site. We understand the concerns, but we also want to make this site safe for our users. The payment is just for end of month site fees, nothing else.
Until a more technical verification system is in place, we will also be manually reaching out to sellers for verification of accounts to ensure they have item as described. All verified sellers will be required to use our instant checkout (PayPal Goods & Services) for added protection to buyers. This will be a manual process on our part until we get systematic approach.
Sweepstakes
We will frequently have sweepstakes on the site. Each sweepstakes is different and we might do them for special occasions or just because we love this community.
Just know your local/state/federal laws before entering our contests.
