Post want ads
- 1 Click Auctions is a place where people buy all sorts of items, and it's important that sellers create listings that offer physical items or actual services. We don't allow listings that don't offer anything for sale or those that have intangible items (generally, things that don't physically exist).
- Make sure your listing follows our guidelines. If it doesn't, it may be removed, and your buying and selling privileges could be restricted.
In addition to rules that apply to all 1 Click Auction members, 1 Click Auctions also has rules specifically about Feedback, buying and selling.
When a buyer or seller issue comes up, depending on the particular situation, we may consider an individual's performance history and the specific circumstances, which can influence how we apply our rules and policies. At our discretion, we may choose to be more lenient with policy enforcement, as long as that decision doesn't result in 1 Click Auctions requiring payment from another member. We reserve the right to do the right thing for both buyers and sellers.
