Listing Items on Forsa
- FORSA supervision team reviews all ads before they are published in the application. This is to maintain the desired quality of ads for the market. Ads are approved or removed based on the following: image policy, description, price accuracy, prohibited ads, and duplicate ads.
- Image Policy: Buyers on FORSA make their purchasing decisions based on the images displayed in the ad. Therefore, sellers must take pictures of the actual items offered for sale, and the images should not be generic or copied from search engines or other websites. Additionally, image clarity is important to accurately show any defects. Unclear or distorted images will be removed.
- Description: Sellers must include an accurate and detailed description of the items they are offering on FORSA. The description should provide precise and up-to-date details about the condition, color, and any distinctive features of the item. The description must not violate FORSA's policies, and the FORSA team reserves the right to ban such posts and their sellers without prior notice, at the sole discretion of FORSA.
- Price Accuracy: The price entered by sellers at the time of posting their item must be the price at which the seller is willing to sell or trade, and the seller should not later cancel sales claiming an inappropriate price. Listing an item at an unusually low price and then canceling the order once someone makes a purchase is a direct reason for account suspension. FORSA review team will automatically remove ads with abnormally low prices. Ads with excessively high prices will also be removed.
- Duplicate Ads: The FORSA supervision team automatically removes all duplicate ads. FORSA encourages sellers to list unique items. To give sellers equal opportunities, the supervision team will also ban and prevent the seller, in case of repeated violations, from adding any other ads.
- Ad Removal:
- After the initial review, ads will appear on the FORSA home page. We reserve the right to remove ads that we consider inappropriate according to our own discretion, even after initial approval. Users will not be notified in advance of removal. However, if you feel that your ad has been removed in error, you may request a review by FORSA's user support team through in-app messages or email.
- From time to time, the FORSA supervision team may ban other types of ads identified by the FORSA community as inappropriate (for example, refurbished phones, counterfeit products, items described misleadingly, etc.). An ad may be removed for the following reasons: it contains nudity or inappropriate content, or it includes products harmful to the community, or the ad includes inappropriate or offensive language targeting any race or religion, or any prohibited products as stipulated in the terms and conditions.
- Additionally, when copying images from another user or website, or if they are unclear and cannot be identified, if we have reason to believe that the item has been modified, or if we have reason to believe that the item is not actually for sale or not available, duplicate ads posted consecutively in a short period of time will also be removed.
