Prohibited and restricted items

You may not list items that are illegal to sell in South Africa, or that infringe someone else's rights. This includes:

• stolen goods, or goods without proof of ownership
• counterfeit or replica branded goods
• firearms, ammunition and explosives
• drugs, prescription medicine and drug paraphernalia
• live animals and protected wildlife products
• tobacco, vaping products and alcohol without the required licences
• adult content and services
• personal information, accounts, and anything that breaks someone's privacy
• recalled or unsafe products

Some categories, such as knives, safety equipment and collectables, are restricted: those listings are checked by Sellio before they go live, and buyers may have to confirm they meet age or legal requirements.

Listings that break these rules are removed, and repeat offenders lose access to Sellio.
