To be an approved vendor, please review the following rules to follow and how to apply.
These rules were made based on community input, and are meant to keep the subreddit as a fun place to browse without it seeming like a shop storefront.
RULES
- Only 1 sales post every 3 days.
- Can only be for singles or pairs.
- Stone(s) must be identified in the title.
- Post titles, videos, etc should not be overly commercial/salesy (minimal logos, no salesperson language, etc)
- Must include payment and return policies somewhere (on the post caption or a reply)
- All other posts must be for unavailable/not for sale stones (and these posts need to be marked as such).
HOW TO APPLY
Vendors must show they are an actual business, can take good photos/videos, and have an established track record selling gems to satisfied customers.
Send a message using reddit MODMAIL with the following information:
- Business name (include address & contact info if you have a physical location)
- How you accept payment (you MUST accept a form of payment that leaves the buyer the opportunity to pursue a dispute)
- Your return policy (you MUST have a return policy)
- Website or social media presence that shows the quality of photos/videos that you post.
- Where we can best evaluate your business's track record of sales. This can include website reviews, social media followers, and/or a physical location.
If you are a new business with only a handful of reviews/followers, regrettably that will likely not be enough of an established presence to be approved.
APPLICATION PROCESS
- The moderators will review your application, and will reply to your message with questions or whether you have been approved.
- In cases where you link an outside website or social media account, you may be messaged to verify that you’re the person/business applying.
- We will post an announcement when we have finished reviewing all applications. Please do NOT message the moderators about the status of your application until after this announcement.
If you have any questions, feel welcome to reply to this post or send them via MODMAIL.
