  • Equipments, such as weapons and armor;
  • Useable items, such as scrolls or potions;
  • Collectible items

  • Parental Password (if applicable to the game and game account)
  • Unlinking any additional login methods (Facebook, Gmail, Steam, etc), if applicable

If desired, you may request other information from the seller. However, as any other information not mentioned above is unnecessary to complete a secure game account ownership transfer, it is only optional for the seller to provide.

Sellers are responsible if the account is recovered by them or a previous owner. If it is proven the account was recovered, sellers are required to provide full refund if desired by buyer. Sellers are also responsible if an account is blocked/banned as a result of any rule, listed in a game's Terms of Service, broken by them (or any previous seller) prior to the sale of an account. Sellers are responsible for all things that happen as the result of an action taken by them or any previous owner. Sellers are responsible for safely helping the buyer secure the account's new ownership. If a ban results from the transferring process, PixelMarket will help determine whether it was any specific party's fault. If it was a result of nobody, the payment will be refunded to the buyer. It is the seller's responsibility to ensure the account is ready and safe for sale.

Sellers are not responsible for: the block/ban of an account as a result of the any action taken by the buyer (such as abusing the game or any part of the game's Terms of Service), or if the buyer has simply forgotten login information.

Powerleveling / Boosting

When offering a powerleveling or boosting service on PixelMarket, the seller will list each specific service (X amount of levels or ranks in X amount of days) offered.

What can't be sold on PixelMarket

Currently, tangible items and downloadables cannot be sold on PixelMarket. PixelMarket has the right to remove any listings at its discretion if it's determined to breaking this rule. This also includes cracked software and licenses and/or access for programs.

Selling of exploited/duped items

While we encourage sellers to only sell legitimately obtained items here on PixelMarket, it's impossible for us to check each item a vendor lists for sale. However, this does NOT mean we allow sellers to lie to buyers. If a buyer asks whether your item was obtained via methods that are against a games Terms of Use/Service, you must tell them the truth. Any seller caught lying will be blocked from further providing their services/items on PixelMarket.

Representing Yourself, Your Shop, and Your Listings Honestly

Communicating with Other PixelMarket Members

Messaging System

You can use PixelMarket's Messaging System to communicate directly with your buyers or other PixelMarket members. Conversations are a great way for buyers to ask you questions about an item or an order.

The Messaging System may not be used for the following activities:

  2. Harassing or abusing another member;
  3. Contacting someone after they have explicitly asked you not to; or
  4. Interfering with a transaction or the business of another member.

Interference

Interference occurs when a member intentionally interferes with another member’s shop in order to drive away their business. Interference is strictly prohibited on PixelMarket. Examples of interference include:

  1. Contacting another member via the Messaging System to warn them away from a particular member, shop, or item
  2. Posting in public areas to demonstrate or discuss a dispute with another member

If you receive a Message that violates this policy, please let us know right away via the Ticket System.

Building a Positive Reputation Through our Reviews System

Reviews are a great way for you to build a reputation on PixelMarket. Buyers can leave a review, including a one to five star rating on different categories. Buyers cannot edit their review after leaving it.

On the rare occasion you receive an unfavorable review, you can reach out to the buyer or, if you feel it was unwarranted or wrong you may contact us.

Reviews and your response to reviews may not:

  1. Contain private information;
  2. Contain obscene, racist, or harassing language or imagery;
  3. Contain prohibited medical drug claims;
  4. Contain advertising or spam; or
  5. Undermine the integrity of the Reviews system.
  6. Extortion

    Extortion is not allowed on PixelMarket. Any attempt to manipulate reviews through threats, intimidation, or bribery is considered extortion and is strictly prohibited on PixelMarket. Extortion includes when a seller offers a buyer additional goods, services, or compensation in exchange for a positive review. For more information, please see this page.

    Shilling

    Shilling is strictly prohibited on PixelMarket. Shilling is the fraudulent inflation of a shop’s reputation by use of an alternate account. The intent of shilling is to make a seller look more desirable by increasing the shop’s number of sales and overall review score. Not only does it violate our core value of transparency, but it is considered to be a deceptive business practice by the US Federal Trade Commission. Reviews must reflect the honest, unbiased opinions, findings, beliefs, or experience of the buyer. For more information on shilling, including examples, please see this page.

    • Respond to Messages in a timely manner.
    • Honor the commitments you make in your shop policies.
