Collectibles.com Community Guidelines

Built by collectors for collectors, we offer the tools and technology to better organize, value, and show off your collections with fellow enthusiasts who share your passion. To keep our platform enjoyable, safe, and respectful for everyone, we’ve outlined the following rules and guiding principles.

Our Mission

As a special home for all who collect all things, we’re here to showcase and celebrate what you love, to promote meaningful conversations, and create trusted connections. Together, we’re shaping a positive, welcoming environment where everyone can share their interests while being mindful of others.

Be Respectful and Kind, Always.

This is a space for connections, not conflict. Harassment, bullying, hate speech, or any threatening behavior will not be tolerated. Treat everyone with courtesy and respect, even if you disagree.

Keep It Honest and Authentic.

Share your genuine collections, stories, and insights. Be yourself and shine. Avoid impersonation, misleading content, or plagiarism. Your contributions should be thoughtful and meaningful—not spammy or disruptive.

Protect Privacy and Safety.

Never share someone else’s private or confidential information without their permission. Do not post or threaten to share sensitive, intimate, or explicit content involving others. Respect everyone’s boundaries.

Keep It Appropriate and Legal.

All content must be suitable, legal, and relevant to the collecting community. Explicit, abusive, or suggestive material—especially involving minors—is strictly prohibited.

No Buying, Selling, or Trading (Unless Allowed).

Our focus is currently on showcasing and celebrating the wide world of collectibles and those who love them. If you try to disguise sales posts as general discussions, they will be deleted. Soon, we will be providing a dedicated marketplace for this activity and will be governed by its own set of rules to ensure a trusted experience.

Avoid Spam and Disruption.

Our foundation is trust. Refrain from excessive self-promotion, engagement manipulation, or spam-like behavior. Thoughtful contributions and authentic participation help keep our community enjoyable for everyone.

Be Considerate of Others’ Experience.

Clearly label sensitive or potentially graphic content. Ensure your posts and interactions respect others’ comfort levels and interests.

How We Enforce the Rules

To maintain a positive environment, we may take the following actions:

• Gently remind you to adjust your behavior.
• Flag and remove content that violates guidelines.
• Temporarily or permanently restrict accounts.
• Apply technology to help identify bad actors.  
• Limit privileges or restrict community access.
• In extreme cases, ban users from the platform.

Let’s Build Something Great Together

Community is what we make of it—playing by the rules of engagement, sharing the passion for collecting and encouraging others, and building trust. How you behave reflects on all of us. Let’s create a special space where collectors can connect, share, and grow in a supportive and positive environment.

Thanks for helping us build a place that all can enjoy!
