Wigix Prohibts the Sale of Plants

Posted by alrod312 (My Page) on

Looking for additional venues to sell some of my plants, I recently started to explore Wigix. These folks are trying to dethrone eBay providing a slightly different approach to the buyer/seller mechanics. I found Wigix lacking and cumbersome in many ways, but still listed a few products to test the waters.

It was promptly brought to my attention that Wigix prohibits the sale of plants - listed together with animals, fish, wildlife, ivory, and tusks. I might agree with the rest, but opposing plants seems to be as anti-environment as you can get. You can find this absurd rule listed as #5 in their Terms of Use page (http://www.wigix.com/index.php/usage/terms_of_use). If you are reading this blog, you are an environmentally conscious person and you should give Wigix your opinion at customerservice@wigix.com.

RE: Wigix Prohibts the Sale of Plants

Perhaps they don't want to deal with interstate permitting issues on the sale of plants? Of course that would be up to the buyer and seller, but one on one sales would have a high probability of violating...something, I'm sure.
