TRUST
Every listing checked in the open.
Authentication on ARCHIVE isn’t a black box. Tag macros are mandatory, the community votes in public, and a moderator signs the verdict. Here’s the whole system.
01 — LEGIT CHECKRUNS ON EVERY LISTING BEFORE IT GOES LIVE
IMG — TAG MACRO
STEP 01 — TAG MACROS REQUIRED
Sellers upload close-ups of the care label, brand tag and hardware, plus a handwritten possession tag in frame with the item. Listings without them don’t publish.
IMG — LC THREAD
STEP 02 — COMMUNITY VOTES
Collectors who own the piece weigh in on a public thread — agree, flag, or add reference photos. One vote per member per listing.
IMG — VERDICT CARD
STEP 03 — MOD VERDICT
An LC moderator weighs the thread and the auto-auth signals, then signs a verdict that stays on the listing.
02 — MODERATIONFLAG → REVIEW → ACTION, WITHIN 24H
Anything flagged — a listing, a comment, a message — lands in a moderator queue and is reviewed within 24 hours. Contact details and payment links are stripped from messages automatically; repeat offenders are banned, permanently.
