To keep the Firesale community safe, respectful, and fun, we have a few simple rules every seller must follow when posting listings. These rules help ensure buyers can trust the platform and sellers can have the best chance of success.

By posting on Firesale, you agree to follow these guidelines.


What You Can Post

You’re welcome to post most secondhand and household items, including:

  • Furniture, electronics, tools, and home goods

  • Clothing, shoes, accessories

  • Toys, games, books, and hobby items

  • Baby gear, kitchenware, outdoor gear

  • Garage/estate sale collections — especially bulk listings!

If it’s legal, clean, yours to sell, and can be picked up locally — you’re likely good to go!


🚫 What You Cannot Post

The following items are strictly prohibited and may result in removal or account suspension:

  • Illegal items (drugs, weapons, counterfeit goods, stolen property)

  • Adult content or sexually explicit materials

  • Alcohol, tobacco, or vaping products

  • Live animals or pets

  • Hazardous materials or recalled products

  • Services or jobs — Firesale is for items only

  • Tickets or gift cards (to prevent fraud)

  • Anything promoting hate, violence, or discrimination

  • Listings meant to spam, scam, or mislead buyers


📷 Listing Quality Guidelines

To make your listing clear, helpful, and sellable:

  • Only post items you actually own and can sell

  • One item or group of items per video — no photo collages or image-only posts

  • Don’t use stock photos — show the real item you're selling

  • Use clear videos, speak clearly, and include price and condition if possible

  • Avoid using fake pricing (e.g. "$1" for an item that isn’t $1)

💡 Firesale uses AI to generate titles, descriptions, and tags — but you’re still responsible for ensuring your listing is honest, appropriate, and accurate.


🔄 Duplicate Listings Policy

Please don’t post the same item multiple times. If it hasn’t sold yet, you can:

  • Edit your listing

  • Lower the price

  • Turn on Auto Price Drop to keep it fresh

Duplicate listings may be removed to keep the platform clean and fair for everyone.


🚨 What Happens If You Break the Rules

If your listing violates our rules, we may:

  • Hide or remove the listing

  • Temporarily restrict your account

  • Permanently ban repeat offenders

Our Trust & Safety Team reviews reports quickly and works to protect both buyers and sellers.


👍 Let’s Keep It Real, Respectful, and Reliable

Firesale works best when everyone follows the same simple code: be honest, respectful, and clear about what you're selling. Help us build a safe and trustworthy community — and sell your stuff faster in the process!
