What’s appropriate on Show and Tell?

Please read the following guidelines before posting and commenting on Show & Tell items. We will delete content that doesn’t comply with these guidelines or that we deem inappropriate for any reason.

——————————————————————————–

Show & Tell is a place where you can share your favorite vintage items and antiques with visitors to CollectorsWeekly.com, whether it’s a piece from your collection, something cool you saw while out picking, or a collectors event you’ve recently attended. While an item’s value will sometimes be a part of the conversation, Show & Tell is mostly a forum for communicating with other users, learning from each other, and just having fun! Therefore:

——————————————————————————–

In your item postings:

  • Don’t post items that are for sale anywhere, be it a live auction, eBay, Etsy, craigslist, etc.
  • Don’t engage in self-promotion.
  • Don’t post items that are really ads for services or upcoming events.
  • Don’t post items you’ve made yourself.
  • Don’t post images that you don’t have the rights to.
  • Be sure to include as much information as possible in your item’s description so other users can give you good feedback.

——————————————————————————–

In your comments:

  • Be respectful. Personal attacks or offensive language of any kind will not be tolerated.
  • Stay on-topic. Take digressions and side conversations elsewhere.
  • Don’t try to buy, sell, or advertise items or services.

——————————————————————————–

If you see a post or comment that you think is inappropriate and should be removed (or anything else on the site that’s broken or incorrect), please let us know. As a shortcut, you can just click the “Report as inappropriate” link on the lower-left corner of any Show & Tell page.
