Prohibited Items Policy

Only lawful collectibles that a seller has the right to sell may be listed. When legality, authenticity, ownership, or safety is uncertain, do not list the item. This launch policy intentionally starts narrow; “but it is collectible” is not a magic exemption.

• Counterfeit, forged, unauthorized replica, or deceptively altered items.
• Stolen property, items obtained through fraud, or items with removed or suspicious serial numbers.
• Illegal goods or services and items whose sale, possession, shipment, or import is restricted.
• Firearms, ammunition, explosives, functional weapons, weapon components, or instructions intended to facilitate violence.
• Controlled substances, drug paraphernalia, tobacco, nicotine, alcohol, or regulated pharmaceuticals.
• Hazardous materials, recalled products, unsafe batteries, biological material, human remains, or live animals.
• Pornographic or sexually exploitative material, especially any material involving minors.
• Items promoting terrorism or violent extremist organizations, and hateful items sold to celebrate or support hatred rather than for legitimate historical context.
• Personal data, credentials, financial accounts, payment instruments, government identification, tickets, licenses, or documents that enable impersonation.
• Items that infringe copyright, trademark, publicity, privacy, or other third-party rights.

Certain categories—including antiquities, cultural property, fossils, taxidermy, ivory-like materials, uniforms and insignia, medical devices, recalled vintage products, and items with unclear provenance—may require documentation or may be removed while legal and safety rules are evaluated.

• State uncertainty plainly; do not present an opinion as a verified fact.
• Do not fabricate certificates, grading records, ownership history, signatures, or edition information.
• Provide documentation when requested, but do not post private personal records publicly.
