VendorsInc needs to protect the users of VendorsInc and while we can not
verify every event that is listed, we can take steps to verify the
validity of our Listers. Therefore, we now have the ability to
display the "Lister Verified" logo for those Listers who participate in
the program.
Vendors are recommended not to forward any money to Listers until they
are sure the event listed is a real event. There have been instances
on other sites where Event Listers were posting events and receiving money from
Vendors. On the day of the event, the Vendors found out there was no show
and the event was a scam.
As a Verified Lister, Vendors can feel confident that your event is
legitimate.
To become a Verified Lister, the Lister will need to provide a physical
address location within the United States. A series of letters will
be mailed out and responses will be expected within a specified timeframe.
Instructions will be included in the mailings that will allow VendorsInc
to Verify the accuracy of the data the Lister provided.
There is a one time Lister Verification Application Fee
of $24.95. This fee is used for the verification process and
is not refundable.
One of the requirements is to provide a voided personal or business
check that clearly shows your Lister Address and the bank name on the
check.
In order for VendorsInc to verify a Lister, all items must
be complete. This process is being done to protect all legitimate
Listers, Vendors, Crafters and the public who may be traveling a distance
to attend a listed event. While it is unfortunate that in today's society
we need to protect ourselves from scam artists, this is a good step
in assuring your customers that you are legitimate and have followed the
process to become a Verified Lister.
