The following is provided for members who wish to sell as an authorized AquariaCentral.com Community Vendor (for profit).
You MUST register with AquariaCentral.com in order to promote your business or to sell your wares as an AquariaCentral.com Community Vendor.
Qualifications
To become a Community Vendor, members must be at least 21 years of age
and be a registered AquariaCentral.com member in good standing. (Members currently under suspension or probation and those who have been infracted, banned, or placed under restricted access within the previous 30 days may not apply. Members registered under more than one username are also not eligible.)
If located in the United Sates, Vendors must be able to ship within the Continental United States. If located outside the United States, Vendors must be able to ship within their home country.
Vendor Rules
1. Community Vendors must update their forums at least once per week. This entails answering inquiry messages, deleting outdated threads, and providing general forum maintenance. In essence you are the Admin of your own forum; therefore, you should keep the area clean and running smoothly. If you encounter problems or have questions about managing your forums, please contact the Community vendor forum Moderator for assistance.
2. Community Vendors must maintain updated stock/price lists in their forums. These listings are to be kept current. Updates are required at least once a month and should include the posting date in the thread title.
3. All Community Vendors must draft a thread outlining their
Terms and Conditions and "stick" the thread for all to see within their Vendor forums.
4. Community Vendors are allowed to post ONE thread per week in the AquariaCentral.com Marketplace/Buy and Sell forum once Community Vendor status approval has been granted
and while waiting for their designated Community Vendor forums to be created. Use of the VENDOR prefix in title of these sale threads is required. Community Vendors must also include the posting date in the title and announce current stock or new items, as usual. This thread may be bumped ONCE PER DAY unless naturally bumped by member questions and are subject to our AquariaCentral.com
Marketplace rules.
5. Once your AquariaCentral.com Community Vendor forum has been established, you may continue to post ONE Vendor thread per week in our AquariaCentral.com Marketplace/Buy and Sell forum, as described above. A link to your Community Vendor forum must be posted in your weekly Marketplace thread and you should direct members to post their questions or comments within your respective forums, as Vendors may forget to review the general threads. Having members post in your Vendor forum makes it easier for you to track sales.
6. Unauthorized Community Vendor sales or advertisement posted outside designated AquariaCentral.com Marketplace/AquariaCentral.com Community Vendor Forums or before Community Vendor status has been approved
will be closed or deleted at staff discretion and without prior notice. Solicitation of AquariaCentral.com members or affiliated site members directly in any manner is not permitted.
7. Community Vendors are subject to AquariaCentral.com's
Terms of Service and must abide by these guidelines at all times, the same as any other registered member.
If you agree to abide by these rules, please submit the information listed below to apply.
Required Information
1. Provide your full name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.

4. List all appropriate business license information, reseller/wholesaler license number, Federal tax ID number, and/or other applicable details relating to your business.
5. You may also submit business or personal references for consideration. This may include other forums or websites where you have been selling or contact information (email addresses) for previous customers.
