Seller Guidelines

Sellers work must be original work of which You have the legal right to its Intellectual Property with the rights to be able to reproduce for sale. This includes all areas of the Item or product whether in full or part. The Seller is liable in totality for any infringement of copyright or International Intellectual Property and indemnifies Flamingaroo against all legal fees, damages and other expenses that may be incurred by Flamingaroo as a result of Your breach of the above warranty. Seller must not list Items that may infringe on local laws or customs or Items that are not in line with the guidelines of Flamingaroo. This includes edible Items and untested cosmetics. Failure to comply will result in removal from Site and the possibility of legal action from local authorities. Flamingaroo takes no liability for any actions taken by our Sellers.

Sellers agree not to mislead any Buyer by offering inaccurate information about the Product or Service or regarding delivery of these said Items. Sellers must list Items in the correct categories, failure to do this will result in Items being removed by the Site.

Sellers are forbidden to list contact details, email address, phone number or website address within your listings, account information, messages or in any packaging presented to the Buyer on delivery. On occasion, Flamingaroo will purchase random Items from different Sellers to ensure this process is being strictly adhered to. In the case this rule is being breached, the Seller will be removed permanently from the Site.

Sellers must only list Items that are available. If an Item is unavailable it must be removed immediately. Repeated incidents of Sellers not removing unavailable Items will result in the termination of the Seller account.

Sellers are required to check their Account daily to ensure orders are adhered to in a timely manner. Flamingaroo recommends Sellers ship items within 5 days of receiving orders, any later than this then communication with the Buyer is required explaining the reasons for delay. Delivery details must be clearly stated for each of the sellers listed items.

It is the responsibility of the Seller to safely package Items to ensure no damage and that the Item is in good condition. Failure to do so will be a cost borne by the Seller of refund or replacements. Sellers are required to provide accurate personal information to Flamingaroo such as names, addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses so that You can be contacted. It is the Sellers responsibility that this is updated whenever there is a change to this information.

Failure to fulfil orders will result in the immediate removal from the Site as a Seller and in some cases an administration charge will be chargeable from the Sellers account for any additional work the staff of Flamingaroo has incurred due to the Sellers failure to fulfil orders. It is the sole responsibility of the Seller to input correct information with regards to the weight of their Listed Products. Any inaccurate information leading to more costs will be borne by the Seller in full. If a Seller is deemed to be inaccurately stating weight to profit from shipping fees, then the difference will be paid back to the Buyer by the Seller and the Seller will be removed from the Site permanently.

The Seller is responsible for collecting VAT for the country that they preside in. The Seller is responsible for ensuring they are legally allowed to sell the Items and that they are a registered business with a trade license for their jurisdiction. Flamingaroo is not responsible for providing or checking this on behalf of the Seller or the local jurisdiction.

Flamingaroo will always attempt to mediate between the Seller and the Buyer, however, the agreement of sale is between the Buyer and Seller only and no responsibility will be borne by the Site. If the event of an unresolvable dispute between the Buyer and Seller, Flamingaroo will make a decision of blame and both parties are required to stand by that decision including all incurred costs.
