These rules exist to ensure safe, fair, and transparent trading for everyone. By participating in Keepsie trades, you agree to follow all of the rules in full. Breaking these rules may result in disciplinary action, including potential bans or loss of ownership. See our Strikes & Bans Policy for more information on how we handle rule breaks and violations.
★ ★ ★
General Trading Rules
★ Forms must be filled out correctly. Please double-check your form for accuracy before posting.
★ Trades must be confirmed by all parties within this Trading thread, posted directly from their CS account using the appropriate form. You cannot confirm trades anywhere else, or have other users confirm trades for you.
★ If Cross-trading with another UMA, you must link the trade post from that UMA's Trading thread here.
★ If you’re offered a free Keepsie or are gifted Keepsies-related items/currency, please only accept it if you truly want it. Taking freebies just to fodder them is frowned upon and may lead to consequences.
Permitted Trades
You may trade Keepsies or Keepsie items for:
★ Other Keepsies, Keepsie items, or starbits (Keepsie currency).
★ C$ (site currency), CS pets/items, Non-UMA Characters/OCs, or artwork
★ Items or characters from other UMAs (User-Made Adoptables/Closed Species), provided the other species’ rules also permit such trades.
Resale Restrictions:
★ Keepsies obtained through litters, rummaging, giveaways, or any other free methods may only be resold for up to 250 C$, 5,000 starbits, or the equivalent value in other uma currencies/items.
★ Additional artwork (whether commissioned or personal) does not increase resale value.
★ Keepsies obtained via custom orders may only be resold for the original custom price.
★ You may not sell or trade any free Keepsies for real-life currency (USD, etc).
★ You may resell paid customs for the amount you originally paid.
★ You may advertise resale of your paid-for Keepsies, but you may not advertise that you are buying re-sellable Keepsies for real money.
Trading Cooldowns:
★ These cooldowns apply to gifting, as well. By "trade", we mean any situation where one Keepsie is transferred to another person.
★ All Keepsies (EXCEPT customs, out-of-species trades, and litterswaps) are subject to a one-week trading cooldown upon acquisition. For information regarding the different cooldowns for other types of trades, please read the sections below.
★ This applies regardless of how they were obtained (like trades, litters, or raffles).
★ Keepsies may not be offered or posted for trade during this cooldown. You may not plan or organize any trades for a Keepsie before its cooldown is up.
★ Users are limited to 2 Keepsie trades a week.
LitterSwaps
★ The one-week cooldown is waived for "litterswap" trades- trades made between users for newly released Keepsies from litters, that share the same lines. This exemption does not apply to Keepsies acquired via trade, or from older litters.
Out-of-Species Trades
★ Keepsies being traded in exchange for designs or items from other UMAs, must be owned for 2 weeks before organizing, planning, offering or posting the trade. This rule goes regardless of the other species' personal trading cooldowns or rules. Both UMAs rules must be abided by and respected for a trade between them to take place.
Customs
★ Custom Keepsies have a 1-month trading cooldown after it is delivered to you.
★ Custom "Memorial" Keepsies, like those made in remembrance of pets or loved ones who have passed, cannot be traded or gifted to anyone except under unique circumstances where permission was given by an Admin or the Owner.
★ Keepsies resulting from Color-in contests have the same 1-month cooldown as a normal custom.
★ If a custom is traded or gifted to you, and you are not the original commissioner, it falls under the standard one-week rule instead. This is to prevent customs from being ordered solely to be used as trade fodder.
Finalizing Trades:
★ Any trade involving time-based components (like art, writing, or customs) must be posted and considered final once both parties agree.
★ Backing out of an agreed-upon trade is not permitted unless both parties consent to cancel.
★ However, if part of the trade involves art (including customs) that has not been delivered within what the receiving party considers a reasonable timeframe, the user may contact the species owner (flummoxing) and request to cancel the trade. In such cases, cancellation must be approved by the species owner, and will depend on communication history, progress shown, and overall context.
★ Trade posts must be updated to include the finished art, writing, or custom once it has been completed and the trade has been finalized.
★ Trades for non-uma characters must include proof of what character(s) will be involved in the trade.
Character-Based Keepsies:
★ Keepsies designed after an OC (original character) are considered extensions of that character.
★ They cannot be traded independently from the OC, nor treated as separate entities. This is in-line with Toyhou.se's policy, and to respect creator/ownership intent.
Paid Recolor Trades:
★ If offering a paid recolor in exchange for a Keepsie, you must clearly name the artist providing the recolor and provide proof of a secured slot or confirmed agreement with the artist. The artist must be given, and agree to, the details of the custom in question before the trade is posted and finalized in the Trades Forum.
