Prohibited Items: Trading illegal items of any kind is strictly prohibited. Violations will result in immediate banning.
Market Posting Limits:
Members may create new ads or bump existing ads up to 3 times every 48 hours.
Contributors may create new ads or bump existing ads up to 3 times every 24 hours.
Only 3 active ads are allowed per user at a time to ensure fair visibility.
Use Secure Payments: Users must use secure payment methods, such as PayPal Goods and Services. Payment services without buyer protection are strongly discouraged!
Timestamp Requirement:
A timestamp is a handwritten note with your username and the current date, written on a piece of paper.
The timestamp must be visibly placed next to the item in the photo included in your "Want to Sell" or "Want to Trade" listing.
Users with fewer than 10 completed trades must include timestamps for all listings. Approved Traders with 10 or more trades are exempt, though timestamps are encouraged.
If you have qualifying feedback from other reputable platforms, let us know, and we'll update your Trade Points.
Trade Points:
Trade Points differ from feedback. Earning 10 positive feedback on Combloc Market earns you 10 Points, granting Approved Trader status.
If external feedback is verified, the user will have 10 Trade Points displayed and be upgraded to Approved Trader independently from feedback earned on Combloc Market.
Trade Points are only awarded at certain milestones such as your first trade and once you reach 10 trades.
Approved Trader:
An "Approved Trader" is a member who has completed 10 or more successful trades on this platform or has been independently verified with 10+ trades on another reputable forum.
Please note that "Approved Trader" status only grants permission to post without a timestamp and does not imply endorsement or guarantee.
Dibs System:
The first user to comment with "Dibs," "I'll take it," or similar phrases secures the item at the asking price.
If negotiating, it must occur before claiming dibs.
The seller is under no obligation to hold an item if terms aren’t finalized in a timely manner.
Be Respectful: Treat all members with politeness and respect. Harassment or abusive behavior will not be tolerated.
No Outside Links: Only Approved Vendors may include links to external websites. Contact an Admin to become an Approved Vendor.
No Auction-Style Posts: Listings with "make an offer" or auction formats are not allowed. Create a price-check post if unsure of your item's value, then follow up with a trade or sale post.
Keep it on-site: Off-site communication is discouraged and could increase your risk.
Follow all Laws: All sales, trades, and interactions must comply with local, state, and federal laws.
Exercise Due Diligence: Combloc Market is a communication platform and does not facilitate trades, handle payments, or resolve disputes. Users must verify the legitimacy of buyers and sellers.
