1. What Can be Sold on 9020baby.com
9020baby.com is a unique marketplace. Buyers come here to purchase items that they might not find anywhere else. Everything listed for sale on 9020baby.com must be handmade, vintage, or a craft supply.

Handmade items are items that are made and/or designed by you, the seller. Read our full Handmade Policy here.

If you sell handmade items, you agree that:

All handmade items are made or designed by you. If you work with a production partner, you must disclose that production partner in your relevant listings.
You accurately describe every person involved in the making of an item in your shop in your About section.
You are using your own photographs—not stock photos, artistic renderings, or photos used by other sellers or sites. Read more about using appropriate photographs in this Help article.
If you are selling personalized or made-to-order items in the Handmade category, you agree that:

All listings are available for purchase at a set price.
If you are using photographs of previous work with options for customization (like color choices) included in the listing, it is clear in your description that the photos shown are just examples.
For more information on how to list personalized items, please see this Help article.

Vintage items must be at least 20 years old. Click here to learn more about vintage items on 9020baby.com.

Craft Supplies are tools, ingredients, or materials whose primary purpose is for use in the creation of an item or special occasion. Craft supplies may be handmade, commercial, or vintage. Party supplies may also be sold as craft supplies. Click here to learn more about what may be sold as a craft supply.

We encourage you to be transparent about how your craft supplies were made and where your materials come from. You can disclose whether your items have social or environmental attributes, such as organic or recycled. You can also select the location of manufacture. Learn more here.

We ask buyers to contact sellers directly and attempt to resolve any outstanding issues before opening a case on 9020baby.com. For this reason, it is important that you fill out your shop policies and regularly respond to Conversations from your buyers.

Buyers may file a case for a non-delivery or a not-as-described item.

By using 9020baby.com’s case system, you understand that 9020baby.com may use your personal information for the purpose of resolving disputes with other members. Cases can be filed in the following circumstances:

Non-Delivery

A non-delivery occurs when a buyer places an order but does not receive the item. The following are examples of non-delivery cases:

There is no proof that the item was shipped to the buyer.
An item was not sent to the address provided on 9020baby.com.
Not as Described

An item is not as described if the buyer can demonstrate that it is significantly different from your listing description or your photos. The following are examples of not as described cases:

The item received is a different color, model, version, or size.
The item has a different design or material.
The seller failed to disclose that an item is damaged or is missing parts.
The buyer received the incorrect quantity of items (e.g., the buyer purchased three items but only received two).
The item was advertised as authentic but is not authentic.
The condition of the item is misrepresented (e.g., the item is described as new but is used).
Not as Described cases can also be filed for late delivery. In order to qualify as late delivery, the buyer must provide proof that all of these conditions have been met:

The item(s) were ordered for a specific date or event.
The item(s) are rendered useless after that date.
The seller did not ship the item(s) according to their processing time or the date agreed upon in Conversations.
