Sellers. Please take a moment to verify that your products were not among those recently removed from display. The removed items had confusing pictures and unrealistic prices that could mislead buyers. Let’s keep our marketplace clean and trustworthy: ✅ Show only the item the buyer will receive — nothing extra. ✅ Display the wrapped or packed product as it will be delivered. ✅ Do not show multiple product counts when the price applies to just one. ✅ Enter all prices in U.S. Dollars (USD). Products that do not follow these presentation rules will be removed from display. Our goal is simple: clarity, honesty, and professionalism. Together, we’re building a marketplace that earns buyer trust and strengthens seller reputation.
