2.  Listing Policies

  1. Commercial Listings are ads of a business or commercial nature (as opposed to personal ads), priced at $100 or more, and require the Commercial Listing Upgrade or a Store Plan. Ads offering any sort of service must be placed in the Services category, and require the Service Listing upgrade.
    This includes listings for a service, product, or real-estate that generate income for its owner. Most work from home businesses, multi-level marketing, home-based product sales, agents, dealers, and agencies fall under this category. Homes that are currently listed with a realtor, even though posted by the homeowner, are considered commercial.
  2. Pet listings of more than $200 require the Pet Upgrade.
    This includes dogs and cats only.
  3. Do not post duplicate listings.
    This includes posting duplicates in the same category, posting the same listing in multiple categories (each listing should be placed in a single, best-fit category), as well as posting the same listing from multiple user accounts.
  4. No deleting and re-posting listings prior to their expiration date.
    If you’d like to keep your listing at the top of the page, we have the Prominent Listing upgrade available for purchase. Deleting listings and re-posting them to keep them at the top of the page is not allowed.
  5. No misleading information in your listing / do not misrepresent yourself.
    This includes misleading information about yourself as well as the item you’re selling. Do not claim that the item is in better condition than it truly is.
