Listing Policies

• There are some items that, due to legal restrictions or Vendito rules, we don’t allow or that can only be listed under certain conditions. If you’re not sure whether your item is allowed, our Prohibited and restricted items policy has more details on what you can and can’t sell.

  To keep Vendito a safe place, sometimes we remove listings that violate our policies. If we remove your listing, we’ll send you an email to your registered email address explaining why. 

  If you can’t find your listings they may have been removed if they violated one of our policies. However, if you haven’t received an email from us about removing your listings, it’s possible they’re just not ranking high up in search results.

  To help improve your search ranking, be as descriptive as possible when you create your listings. Write a clear title and description, list your item in the right category, and fill out all item specifics suggested for your item. 

  Images and text policy– You should write your own descriptions and use your own images, to make sure you’re giving potential buyers an accurate representation of your items, and that you’re not infringing on anyone else’s content rights. 

  No item listings policy– All listings on Vendito have to offer a physical item or a tangible service. Listings that are blank, or don’t offer a tangible item or service, aren’t allowed because they can cause confusion for buyers and increase the risk of fraud.

  JavaScript policy– Active content in listings can create a poor experience by increasing page load times and introducing security risks. That’s why it’s not allowed in listings on Vendito.

  Links policy– We don’t allow listings to contain links that direct customers to anothersite.

   Phone Numbers on images and/or listings– We don’t allow listings or images to contain phone numbers, e-mails, usernames, and/or any other forms or means of contact outside the site.
