  Transactions

- In the case of a resale, you may not resell the design for higher than the original purchased price.
- Please do not buy/get oto(s) with the intention of trading them. 
  There is a period of 4 weeks after you have obtained an oto during which you are not allowed to trade or gift it.
- If you'd like to add the commissioned pieces to the oto you're selling, any extra art must be as a gift and not included in the price.
- In order to avoid the monetary problem with both of users, Please do not add extra costs(commission etc) to oto for trade. (e.g. you will charge original price + extra costs and named as "worth price" in trading.)
[Voucher]
- Voucher is not allowed. No one can obtain my design through a Voucher.
However, the only exception that I will allow for a specific voucher is if an artist(in this case, users under the age of 18 is allowed) offers a custom/commission of their own art or a design without a monetary offer for it. (Please inform me when you traded through this way)

  Payment

[Send payment]
- In payment, I will use Invoices system by paypal. the personal information that stated in invoices is not to be used anything for other than sending invoices.
- For cancellation, basically I WILL NOT accept unless it's an emergency. It depends on your situation whether it's an emergency case for you or not. If It's an upcoming payment, or you've known about it before and you still commit to paying for the design, you can not apply for cancellation of your payment.
[Cancellation/Refund or Chargeback]
- Refunds will also not be entertained in this situation.
- Due to chargeback concerns, bids will only be accepted from accounts that have been active on TH or DA for at least about 1 year.
- If you are the highest bidder in an auction and I do not receive a response and/or payment within a certain time frame (this will be stated on the sales page), your bid will be canceled.


 The locus of responsibility 

- If "a user" makes a problem that included the problem that taken from my design to another user (e.g.  copying the design to your selling product, or scam), It shall remain solely the responsibility of this user. And If there is the trick that included money, that user has a responsibility to pay the damages to the user who paid for it.


  Public blacklist

*I never tolerate that someone sends (aggressive) message to these users by any user from it.  Please refrain from trade/gift my design or art to these users.

For First-time Blacklisted, the username remains anonymous. However, If they made another similar problem to someone continuously, Especially made threats or blackmailing in our talks/on or offsite, etc that people need to pay attention. Their username need be shown for people who want to seek to know more easily to prevent a future problem.

Please double check official PSA forum before trading/reselling and please refrain from the  transaction with the suspicious user(s)

More detail rules for considering to show up in private/public blacklist;

https://toyhou.se/~bulletins/52040.-

Will consider the flexible dealing by their ages If they are under the age. but regardless their ages, we would take a strict decision when users involved with, or included threats/blackmailing.

The followers (parties) of public blacklisted users who were  involved/allowed threat have a possibility to forbidden from obtaining  my designs and receiving any art/commissions for preventing another  problem happen. Followers include all forms of social media such as   Twitter, dA, toyhou.se, etc.

       

[Cancellation] -  Private, they might get a little penalty in the future.

Cymbolica

  Lost contact after closing bid. Still waiting for their response.

[Inappropriate behaviors]

Teal

Scammed $1000 or more from user(s) with my design. PSA post has already posted for so many scam problems.

Rainbronii/Rainubrew/Rainbrew

[Reasons why they were public] Due to has been making similar art problems to at least me also several artists for making profits.

Related to their blackmailing problem, and the behaviors that they will show off the privacies of users to justify their behaviors in on/offsite with their parties. They are being friendly and Goes to a lot of Cons for selling.
