Counterfeit goods, replica goods, stolen goods, and intentionally misleading listings are prohibited on Middle Who Market.

Replica items are prohibited even if a listing discloses that the item is a replica, imitation, inspired-by item, dupe, copy, or similar product.

Sellers may not use brand names, trademarks, logos, copyrighted content, serial information, authenticity claims, photos, or other listing details in a way that is false, misleading, infringing, or likely to create confusion about authenticity, affiliation, sponsorship, approval, or origin.

Sellers may not claim that Middle Who Market authenticated, inspected, approved, certified, endorsed, appraised or guaranteed an item unless an actual, current, item-specific result authorizes that precise claim. A seller identity badge concerns identity only. Paying for an item review or certificate intake is not an authentication result.

An item review, if available, applies only to the exact item, provider, method, result and limitations stated with it. Middle Who Market does not authenticate every listed item or guarantee a seller's item claims. Buyers and sellers should check the scope and reliability of any documentation they obtain or rely on.

Users may report counterfeit concerns, stolen item concerns, brand misuse, suspicious authenticity claims, or misleading listings by using available report options where shown or by contacting Middle Who Market.

• Remove or pause listings.
• Restrict account features or visibility.
• Suspend or terminate users when needed.
• Preserve records connected to suspected policy violations.
• Take other action when an item creates legal, safety, trust, intellectual property, or marketplace integrity risk.
