Prices
Prices must be kept to two decimal spaces, and must only be rounded to the nearest fifty pence increment, where applicable.
Conditions
Compare and Recycle's recycling listings presently support four base conditions; broken, poor, good and new. We encourage you to provide your own conditions in your pricing feed, which will then be mapped to our base conditions where applicable.
A list of your supported conditions and a detailed description for each will be required upon sign-up.
Device Capacity
A products capacity must derive from the 'product' field, and must not be its own column in your pricing feed.
For example, 'Apple iPhone SE 32GB'
