Manufacturer’s Coupons

NWMarketplace permits the listing of valid coupons on its site, with some limitations. Please see ’Additional Information’ to learn more about what limits are placed on the sale of coupons. NWMarketplace is committed to working with the coupon industry to help ensure that NWMarketplace is not a venue for fraudulent coupon-related transactions and to providing its users with a safe place to trade.

Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including:

• Listing cancellation

• Limits on account privileges

• Account suspension

• Forfeit of NWMarketplace fees on cancelled listings

The following limits are placed on the sale of coupons on NWMarketplace:

• Expired Coupons: The sale of recently expired coupons is not permitted on NWMarketplace, as such coupons serve no valid purpose and could be used in a fraudulent manner. Collectible coupons that clearly cannot be redeemed may be permitted.

• Electronic "scanned" coupons: All coupons sold through NWMarketplace must be physically delivered to the buyer, and may not be delivered by electronic means for home printing. Further, to reduce the potential for coupon abuse, NWMarketplace asks that sellers refrain from placing clear, unaltered scans of coupons in their listings that could be copied, printed and redeemed in stores. The sale of scanned or photocopied coupons may violate federal copyright laws, and sellers of such unlawful items could face prosecution under federal law. NWMarketplace will not tolerate such transactions through its site.

• Bulk coupon sales: Bulk coupon listings are defined as listings that contain more than 20 coupons for the same item, or more than 100 total coupons. If it is unclear how many coupons are offered, the listing will be considered in violation. Coupon inserts (packets of coupons typically found in newspapers) are limited to a maximum of 5 per listing, unless the seller indicates in the listing that the quantity of coupons for sale is under 100 total coupons.

• Coupons for "free" products: Coupons for free products, with no purchase required, are limited to two per listing. Internet home printed coupons are also limited to 2 per listing.
