Mesh Beta Terms of Use

Version 0.3, revision 5 of 7 November 2026 (0.3-r5).

These terms exist in French, English and Polish. All three versions have the same value. If they differ, the version most favourable to you applies.

To use Mesh, you accept them by ticking a box when you sign up. You also agree to receive these terms, the privacy notice and our information in the language you chose when you signed up. We keep the version you accepted, its language and the date of acceptance; you can ask us for a copy.

1. Who publishes Mesh

Mesh is published by Rome Studio OÜ, a private limited company incorporated under Estonian law (osaühing).

This email address is our single point of contact, for members and for authorities alike. A person reads it. You can write to us in French, English, Estonian or Polish. A reply in Estonian or Polish may be machine-translated.

From the switch to this address onwards, the site is available at https://meshclct.com during the beta.

2. What the beta is

Mesh is in beta. The site changes often. Features may appear, change or disappear without notice. There may be errors, outages or data loss.

The beta is free of charge. Mesh takes no commission and handles no payments.

3. Access by invitation

You can only join Mesh with an invitation link. A link can be used once and is valid for 14 days.

4. Mesh connects members, nothing more

Mesh helps members find each other. A member publishes a listing. Another member says "I want it". If the seller accepts, each of you sees the other's contact details.

From then on, everything happens between the two of you, outside Mesh: the final price, the payment, and the shipping or hand-over in person. Mesh records the shipment and its tracking, but does not settle a disagreement between the buyer and the seller.

Each order has a message thread, opened as soon as the order is placed. Only the buyer and the seller read it. The Mesh team reads it only if a message is reported (sections 11 and 12). It is not end-to-end encrypted: the privacy notice says who can technically read it. A message has a text of 2,000 characters at most and one photo at most. You can send 30 messages per hour at most. The thread closes to writing after a refusal, a cancellation or a released order (its cards go back on sale), when the other member deletes their account, 30 days after the sale if there is no shipment, or 30 days after the buyer marked the shipment as received. It stays readable.

Rome Studio OÜ is not the seller, not the buyer and not a payment intermediary. It never becomes a party to your sale.

Consign is not open to all members. If it is open to you, Mesh also shows offers from Consign, a live-sales app separate from Mesh, where cards kept in a vault (Collector Crypt or PSA) are sold as NFTs. The price shown is a starting price, and availability is confirmed live. The purchase takes place in Consign, with your own wallet, outside Mesh. Mesh holds no key, signs nothing and does not become a party to that purchase.

5. Order of listings

By default, listings are shown from newest to oldest. You can also sort them by ascending price (prices in euros first), or show those from your country and your city first. When you search for a card, the listings that best match your search come first, then the cheapest ones.

Nobody pays to be ranked higher. Mesh does not promote its own offers. Offers from Consign, a Rome Studio service, are marked as such by their "Consign" badge and are not ranked higher than other offers.

6. Professional or private seller

Each listing shows whether the seller is a professional (trader) or a private individual. The seller declares this in their profile; Mesh does not verify it.

If you buy from a private individual, consumer law does not apply to your sale: there is no right of withdrawal and no legal guarantee of conformity. Civil law applies, usually that of the seller's country, with its rules on hidden defects (in France, for example, the warranty against hidden defects, articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code, available at legifrance.gouv.fr).

If you buy from a professional, you keep all your rights as a consumer, including the 14-day right of withdrawal for a distance sale. The seller is responsible for these rights, not Mesh.

If you sell as a professional (shop, reseller), you must declare it in your profile. You must also give buyers the information that the law requires from distance sellers: your identity, your address, the right of withdrawal and its conditions. Your profile has a field for this.

Income from your sales may be taxable, especially if you sell often or resell at a profit. Check with the tax authority of your country: in France, impots.gouv.fr and urssaf.fr; in Estonia, emta.ee; in Finland, vero.fi; in Poland, podatki.gov.pl. You alone are responsible for your own declarations.

7. No guarantee on exchanges

Mesh does not check the cards, their condition, their authenticity or the identity of members. Mesh does not guarantee that a sale will take place, nor that it will go well.

For a graded card, the certificate number is declared by the seller, and Mesh does not check it. The PSA badge or the link to the certificate on PSA's site is not a guarantee of the card's authenticity or grade: check the certificate on PSA's site before buying.

If a dispute arises between two members (card not received, damaged card, counterfeit, payment not received), it is up to you to settle it. Mesh refunds nothing. If you come across a scam or a counterfeit, report it with the "Report" button (section 11).

The price estimates shown are estimates taken from public sources. The source and date of each estimate are shown next to it. They are not a guaranteed price and not advice.

8. What you publish

You are responsible for what you put on Mesh: your name, your profile, your contact details, your listings, your photos, your wanted cards ("Je cherche", I'm looking for) and your messages.

You agree to:

You keep your rights in your photos. You allow Rome Studio OÜ to show them to other Mesh members for as long as your listing exists, and, for a photo sent in a message, to the other member of the thread for as long as the order exists.

9. Card images

The images of the cards in the catalogue come from third-party sources. Pokémon cards and their artwork belong to their rights holders (The Pokémon Company, Nintendo, Creatures, Game Freak).

During the beta, these images are used only to identify cards, for the private use of invited members. You must not copy them, download them in bulk or reuse them outside Mesh.

Mesh is not affiliated with, nor endorsed by, The Pokémon Company.

10. What is prohibited

11. Reporting content

To report an illegal listing, photo, profile or message (counterfeit, scam, insult…), use the "Report" button ("Report the listing", "Report the photo", "Report this profile") on the listing, the photo or the profile, or the "Report" link under each of the other member's messages. The form asks for:

The link to the content and your email address (the one on your account) are filled in for you. You can also write to [email protected] with the same elements: the link, what the problem is and why, your name and email address, and the good-faith sentence.

We acknowledge receipt, review the report and tell you what we have decided, and how to challenge the decision.

If content suggests that someone's life or safety is under threat, we notify the police.

12. How we moderate

Nobody reviews listings before they are published. We act when a member reports content to us, or when we notice a problem ourselves. Every decision is taken by a person, not by a program.

We may remove a listing, a photo or a message, pause your listings, or suspend or delete your account. We choose the lightest measure that is sufficient.

When a message is reported, a person from the Mesh team reads the whole thread, to understand the message in its context. A removed message is replaced by "Message removed by the Mesh team". We keep its text and its photo for as long as the order exists, so that we can restore it if your challenge succeeds.

13. Account suspension

Rome Studio OÜ may suspend an account that does not comply with these terms or with the law, or that puts other members at risk. A suspension closes open sessions and pauses the account's listings. Other members can no longer see those listings or the account's showcase.

If we suspend your account, remove a listing, a photo or a message, or restrict a listing's visibility, we send you an email no later than the moment the measure takes effect. It states what we did, the facts concerned, the rule of these terms or the law concerned, and how to challenge the decision.

You can reply to [email protected]: a person reviews your challenge. You can also go to court.

A suspended account may be reinstated. In the event of a serious or repeated breach, it may be deleted.

If you are a professional seller, we do not delete your account without 30 days' notice by email, except where required by law or in the event of repeated breaches of these terms.

14. Asking for help

You can write to the Mesh team from the site's help page, when it is open. Your request and our replies form a private thread between you and the team: no other member sees it. A team administrator reads it to reply to you, and the thread is not end-to-end encrypted: the privacy notice says who can read it. This thread does not replace the thread of your order with the other member.

You can also write to [email protected], in particular if you do not have an account or if your account is suspended.

15. Professional members

What a seller sees: the name and member type of the buyer who says "I want it", then the buyer's contact details if the request is accepted. A seller has no access to other sellers' data. Mesh does not sell or share the data of sellers or buyers.

Your listings are distributed only on Mesh, and on no other site or channel.

16. Deleting your account

You can delete your account at any time from your profile, using your password. What is erased, what remains and for how long are described in the privacy notice.

17. End of the beta

The beta may end. We will notify you by email at least 30 days in advance. If a legal obligation or an event beyond our control forces us to stop earlier, we will notify you as soon as possible and tell you why.

At the end of the beta, either Mesh moves on to a next version with new terms, which you will have to accept to continue, or the site closes. If it closes, your data is erased under the conditions set out in the privacy notice.

18. Liability

Mesh is a free beta: there may be outages, errors and data loss. Keep a copy of anything that matters to you.

Rome Studio OÜ is not a party to sales between members and is not liable for them.

We remain liable for our intentional misconduct or gross negligence, for harm to life or health, and for our obligations regarding your personal data. If you are a consumer, you keep all the rights that the law of your country gives you.

19. Changes to these terms

We will notify you by email at least 15 days before a change to these terms takes effect, unless the law requires us to act faster or we need to counter fraud or a security vulnerability. If you do not agree, you can delete your account before then.

20. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by Estonian law. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the rules of your country of residence, whichever European Union country that is, and you can bring proceedings before the court of your place of residence.

If you are a professional member, Estonian law applies and the courts of Tallinn have jurisdiction.

Before taking any action, write to us: [email protected].

You can also complain about Mesh under the EU Digital Services Act to the Digital Services Coordinator of your country (in France, Arcom; in Finland, Traficom; in Poland, UKE). It forwards your complaint to the authority competent for Mesh, the Consumer Protection and Technical Regulatory Authority (Tarbijakaitse ja Tehnilise Järelevalve Amet, TTJA) in Estonia, www.ttja.ee, which you can also contact directly.
