If a Seller lists a prohibited item or service, as set forth below, it will be deemed to be a violation of our Terms of Service regardless of whether the Seller acted intentionally or not. If Gameflip determines that a listing is in violation or is otherwise inappropriate Gameflip may, at its discretion, remove the listing and cancel any related transactions up to and including termination or suspension of the Seller’s account.
