Terms & posting rules
Plain-English rules for posting on MilkGrade. By posting or messaging, you agree to them. Billing terms for paid plans are on the pricing page, and how we handle data is in our privacy policy.
Posting sales on the Milk Locator
- Post only sales you're hosting or have the host's OK to post. The address and times are public.
- Every post is reviewed before it shows, and we can edit, decline or remove any post.
- Keep it accurate. Use your private edit link to change or cancel your sale.
Items for sale (classifieds)
- One item (or one matching set) per listing, with an honest price, description and your own photos.
- Only list things you own and have the right to sell, and that are legal to sell where you live.
- Listings are reviewed before they show and stay up for 30 days. You can renew in the last week, and mark sold or delete anytime with your private link.
- No links, phone numbers or emails in the listing. Buyers reach you through the message form.
- No reposting the same item to bump it. Duplicates are declined.
What can't be listed
- Guns, ammunition, gun parts and accessories, explosives, fireworks, and weapons like switchblades or brass knuckles
- Alcohol, tobacco, vapes, e-cigarettes, cannabis, CBD/THC products and drug paraphernalia
- Prescription or over-the-counter medicine, medical devices that need a prescription, and supplements
- Live animals, pets and animal parts from protected species
- Recalled products (check cpsc.gov/Recalls), used car seats and cribs that don't meet current safety rules
- Counterfeit, replica or stolen goods, and anything you don't have the right to sell
- Adult products or content
- Hazardous materials: chemicals, gas cans with fuel, propane tanks that aren't empty, and pesticides
- Gift cards, tickets, lottery tickets, coupons, currency and financial products
- Vehicles, boats, real estate, rentals, jobs and services (auto parts are fine)
- Personal information, accounts, digital downloads and anything illegal where you live
Messaging sellers
- Messages go to the seller by email from [email protected], with your email as the reply-to address, so the seller sees your email. The seller's email stays private until they reply.
- Use messaging only to ask about the item. No spam, ads, scams or harassment. We limit how many messages can be sent and can block senders.
- MilkGrade isn't part of any sale. We don't hold money, check items or guarantee buyers or sellers. Meet in a public place, bring a friend, and never pay or send codes before you see the item.
Cream Points
- Points are earned only for approved posts: 10 for a sale or flea market, 5 for an item listing, 2 for an approved photo or correction. Rejected and duplicate posts earn nothing, and you can earn up to 30 points for the posts you send in one day.
- Points belong to the email you posted with. Every 50 points adds 1 extra Milk-o-Meter check to the account for that email. Points and checks have no cash value and can't be sold or transferred.
- If a post turns out to break these rules, we can remove it and take back its points. We may change or end Cream Points; checks already added stay on your account.
Reports and removal
- See a problem? Email [email protected] with the page link. We review reports and remove posts that break these rules.
- Values, grades and estimates on MilkGrade are automated estimates, not guarantees.
