Before listing your item, make sure we allow it on Donnate, and find out if we have specific rules and conditions on how you should list it. Check the list of prohibited and restricted items policies above. You also need to make sure that the sale of your item complies with all laws.


Activity on Donnate is required to:

  • Follow all applicable laws
