1. Neighbourly conduct
Communicate respectfully across languages and backgrounds and respect personal boundaries. Abuse, threats, discrimination, harassment, hate, sexual solicitation, stalking and disclosure of others' private information are prohibited. Declining a sale or offer is no justification for abuse. Do not impersonate management or use access or residence information to pressure others.
2. Suitable listings
The pilot is for personal pre-loved physical goods, such as lawful, safe household items, books, clothing and everyday electronics. Disclose defects, missing accessories and cleanliness. Use images you are entitled to publish, sign out of personal accounts and clear data before transferring electronics. Duplicate spam, scam links, fictitious goods and zero prices hiding actual charges are prohibited.
3. Prohibited or unsupported categories
Illegal, stolen, counterfeit or rights-infringing goods are prohibited, as are weapons, explosives, hazardous chemicals and other dangerous goods; drugs, medicines and medical devices; tobacco, vapes, alcohol, food and drink; animals and unlawful wildlife products; recalled or unsafe products; sexual goods, unlawful services and gambling or investment solicitation. The pilot also does not support property rentals, professional services, digital accounts or virtual currency.
Access cards, keys, resident credentials, identity documents and devices or files containing other people's data are prohibited. Do not substitute academic ghostwriting, sale of exam materials or security-bypass services for physical-item listings. This list does not permit an unlawful item simply because it is unnamed. Do not list goods where safety or legality is uncertain.
4. Safe handover
Prefer handover in a common area both parties are entitled to use and follow venue rules. Avoid disclosing Flat or access codes. Inspect the item and verify receipt of payment; screenshots, links or promises are not proof that funds arrived. Contact emergency services for immediate danger; Linmee feedback and reporting are not emergency-response services.
