Rules for Sellers

XS-Machinery's policies are rules and guidelines that help to create a safe, fair and enjoyable trading environment for all XS-Machinery members. As a seller, you are responsible for reviewing and understanding XS-Machinery’s selling policies, as well as all applicable laws and regulations as outlined in the User Agreement.

Learning about XS-Machinery's selling policies before you list an item will help you to avoid unintentionally breaking rules. XS-Machinery’s selling policies are updated to respond to marketplace, Community and security issues, so it is important to check them regularly for changes.

Violations of these policies may result in a range of actions, including:

  • Listing cancellation
  • Limits on account privileges
  • Account suspension
  • Forfeit of XS-Machinery fees on cancelled listings
  • Loss of PowerSeller status

Every seller must know and follow:

In addition to the above rules, here are some additional policy violations not permitted on XS-Machinery:

  • Seller Non-performance – Sellers must honor the transaction contract. Sellers cannot fail to deliver an item for which payment was accepted, significantly misrepresent an item by not meeting the terms and item description outlined in the listing, or refuse to accept payment for an item at the end of a successful sale.
  • Tax Policy – Sellers must pay relevant fees and taxes.

Both buyers and sellers cannot interfere with a transaction or offer to buy or sell listed items outside of the XS-Machinery site (see Rules for Everyone).

Note: Only report a case once. Multiple emails about the same case slow an investigation.

After your report is received:

  • XS-Machinery will consider the circumstances of an alleged policy violation and the user's trading record before taking action.
  • Disciplinary action may result in listing cancellation, limits on account privileges, account suspension, forfeit of XS-Machinery fees on cancelled listings
  • If a complaint can't be proven with certainty, XS-Machinery may take no action.
  • Due to privacy issues, it's not possible for XS-Machinery to discuss the results of an investigation.
