Community Rules & Safe Trading

Community conduct

Be truthful and respectful. Do not post stolen, counterfeit, illegal, dangerous or otherwise prohibited goods. Do not impersonate others, manipulate bids, harass members or misrepresent the condition of an item.

Before a transaction

Verify the other member's identity where appropriate. Inspect items in a safe public location when practical, check ownership and documentation, and agree in writing on the price, payment method, collection and delivery.

Be cautious of pressure to pay immediately, unusual payment instructions, requests for one-time codes or sensitive documents, and deals that seem too good to be true.

Reporting problems

Stop communicating if you suspect fraud. Preserve messages, listing details and payment evidence. Report concerns through the platform's published support channel and contact appropriate authorities when necessary.

TTBids should publish a working reporting and complaint channel before launch.
