Weird Girl Gifts: Vendor Code of Ethics
By partnering with Weird Girl Gifts (WGG), you agree to uphold the following standards of conduct and craft.
1. Radical Transparency
We believe the “magic” is in the details. You agree to describe your items with radical honesty.
- Materials: If a crystal is heat-treated or a “silver” ring is plated, say so.
- Sourcing: We prioritize ethically sourced natural materials. If you claim an item is “fair trade” or “organic,” be prepared to provide documentation upon request.
2. The “No Snake Oil” Promise
We celebrate spiritual exploration, not exploitation.
- Claims: Never promise a medical cure, financial windfall, or guaranteed supernatural outcome.
- Empowerment: Focus on the intention and craft of the object rather than a “guaranteed result.” We sell tools for the journey, not shortcuts to a destination.
3. Professionalism & “The 72-Hour Rule”
To maintain a high-end marketplace feel, communication must be crisp.
- Responsiveness: Vendors must acknowledge customer inquiries and platform communications within 72 hours.
- Shipping: Orders must be fulfilled within your stated processing times. Consistent delays damage the collective reputation of all WGG vendors.
4. Intellectual Property & Respect
- Originality: We do not tolerate “copy-pasting” other artists’ designs
- Authenticity: using AI-generated imagery to represent physical handmade goods is not honest or authentic.
5. Pricing Integrity (The Fair Play Rule)
Your presence on WGG is a partnership.
- Parity: Do not treat WGG customers as “secondary” by charging them more than your direct website customers.
- Circumvention: Keep the transaction where the discovery happened. Redirecting WGG fans to your private PayPal or Venmo to avoid platform fees is a breach of our community trust.
6. Curated Presentation
You aren’t a “peddler”; you are a Brand.
- Aesthetics: Maintain high-quality photography that reflects the “Weird Girl” aesthetic.
- Environment: Ensure your physical setups (if shown) and digital presence reflect a professional, verified business structure.
