TackTackRoom is not curated a marketplace. However, for a variety of reasons, we prohibit certain types of items from being listed on TackTackRoom. Some items present legal risks to our community; others are inconsistent with our values, are harmful to our members, or simply are not in the spirit of TackTackRoom. Any listings in the categories outlined below will be deleted. Members who repeatedly attempt to sell such items risk permanent suspension from TackTackRoom.
