Noihsaf Payments
Once delivery is verified, earnings will be added to your Noihsaf balance. Generally, delivery gets verified automatically — once the carrier tells us it's delivered. Additionally, the buyer can mark the item as delivered.
When you sign up for Noihsaf Payments, you will be prompted to connect a bank account or debit card to your Stripe account. Sellers can trigger a payout from their Noihsaf balance to their connected account at their discretion.
That's the plan but that's still many months out.
Items are up for 60 days. This should give buyers plenty of time to find your item. If your item doesn’t sell in that time, try taking it to a lovely consignment boutique in the city/town/state you live in.
Community members can make an offer in the comments of your item on NoihsafBazaar.com. To accept an offer simply go to the item, click "Edit", adjust the price and hit "Save". Then, reply to the offer in the comments and let them know you changed the price.
Note that the item will not be reserved for a specific person — anybody can buy an item at any time. The person making the offer will want to act fast to purchase the item first.
We will be adding more comprehensive Offers functionality down the road.
Several states have created legislation that requires marketplace facilitators such as Noihsaf Bazaar to collect and remit sales tax on behalf of their third-party sellers’ transactions once sales in that state exceed certain thresholds.
Noihsaf Bazaar will automatically calculate, collect, and submit state and local sales tax on the seller’s behalf, as applicable, on a regular basis. Sales tax collection is not deducted from your seller earnings, but included in the buyer’s order total.
Beginning January 1, 2022, marketplaces like Noihsaf Bazaar are required to report all earnings to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of this (and other regulations), Stripe is required to collect Social Security numbers from sellers in the U.S. This information will be kept private and secure and is not stored on Noihsaf Bazaar servers.
A provision in the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, better known as the COVID Relief Bill, requires companies to report/issue a 1099-K to anyone with over $600 in sales per year, even if only in a single transaction.
We encourage sellers to speak with a tax professional when reviewing their 1099-K’s to determine what amounts are classified as taxable income.
At this time our website can only accommodate buyers and sellers from the United States.
Selling on Noihsaf Bazaar
All items should be shipped using a service that provides tracking information. We recommend using a shipping option that provides insurance, especially for large ticket items. Seller earnings are added to their Noihsaf balance once an item’s tracking shows the item was delivered. If the tracking is showing an item has been delivered, but the buyer has not received it, the buyer is responsible for working with their local carrier/checking with neighbors to locate their package. If an item with a valid tracking number is lost or damaged in transit (processed and scanned into the carrier's system), sellers should work with the shipping carrier to resolve the issue.
BUYERS: if an item is damaged in transit, please be sure to keep all packaging materials as the shipping carrier may require to review the physical evidence when a claim is filed.
Please reach out to the Noihsaf Bazaar team for assistance if a package has been lost or damaged in transit.
Noihsaf Bazaar is committed to working with both buyers and sellers to ensure fair and equitable outcomes should any disputes arise.
Since items on the Noihsaf Feed are available for immediate purchase, please do not cross list any items submitted here. If an item becomes unavailable or you'd like to try listing it for sale elsewhere, please visit the item via your Noihsaf shop and "DISABLE PURCHASING"
We understand that can be frustrating, but please remember we are limited with the number of items we can post and base our decisions on a few factors: who made it, how many are in the feed already, price, image and item quality.
No, at this time we do not accept trade listings.
That’s awesome! However, we do not list items made from individuals selling their own wares. We prefer you keep that to ETSY. If you are an established small shop or designer, we do love a good collaboration so contact us at [email protected]
We do not list items priced above retail. Additionally, we ask that items purchased on Noihsaf Bazaar not be relisted here for more than you payed for the item.
We understand that honest mistakes happen, but cancelled transactions create confusion and disappointment for buyers and sellers. We expect that our community will be respectful of each other and fulfill their transactions.
Buyer Requests Cancellation: As soon as an order is shipped it can no longer be cancelled. If the buyer wants to cancel an order they should let the seller know ASAP. After that, just reach out to the Noihsaf Bazaar team and we can help get the order cancelled for you. The buyer will be refunded the full amount minus any credit card processing fees (not refundable).

If an order’s tracking is showing that an item was delivered to the correct address, but you have not received it, buyers will need to work with their local carriers to locate the item(s). We recommend checking in with family, roommates and neighbors to ensure that your package was not misplaced. If theft is suspected, a police report can be filed locally. A claim could also be filed with your homeowners or renters insurance, as most plans would cover this. Neither the seller or Noihsaf Bazaar are responsible for packages that go missing after delivery.
