Community Rating
Your community rating represents the trust we believe our users should have in you. It is one of the main factors used to determine the ranking of your product in the list.
It combines:
your average from reviews from the last 360 days.
Your Dispute Rating from the last 180 days.
Issues Resolution
Buyers can report issues using our Dispute system.
Based on your professionalism during disputes you receive a Dispute score that influences your community rating, thus the ranking of your products.
You must NEVER ask a buyer to close a dispute before the issue/concern was fully resolved.
If you were unable to resolve the issue with the other party, the dispute may be escalated to igitems (after at least 24 hours) and our help will step in to mediate. Make sure to remain professional, honest and helpful so we can do our best to resolve the differences!
Warning System & Suspensions
Sellers in breach of our guidelines may receive an official warning.
Warnings expire in 3 months, quicker at very high seller levels
If a seller has 3 active warnings at once, their access becomes limited
Sellers limited for several months are automatically banned.
Severe issues can result in an immediate suspension without the need for warnings. Such issues may include, but are not limited to:
Sharing personal contact information
Refusing to provide post-sale assistance
Conducting transactions outside of igitems
Manipulating sales & performance metrics/ratings
False advertising
Product List
