Ex Files / Submission standards

Keep the story.
Leave the names.

A good story gives an object its next chapter. It does not expose the people in the last one.

Submissions are not open yet

We’re still setting up the first drop.

There is no submission form on this page. Nothing you write here is collected or saved.

Before an item can be listed

These are the standards for a future submission. Meeting them does not guarantee an item will be accepted or listed.

  1. 01

    The item is yours to pass on

    Contributors will need to confirm they own the item and have the right to sell or hand it over. A listing would only be considered after that confirmation.

  2. 02

    The story is shared with permission

    Nothing is published without the contributor’s clear consent to share an anonymous story with the item. A request to submit is never permission by itself.

  3. 03

    Identities stay out of it

    Names, faces, handles and details that could identify someone do not belong in a listing. Stories are personal accounts, not independently verified claims.

Before anything is listed, item details, condition, price and any sale terms would need to be agreed. No terms or payout details are being offered here.

No names. No faces. Clear consent before a story goes public.
