15.Fees and Services. Joining and bidding on items at 4sale-or-auction.com is

from time to time. We may choose to temporarily change our Fees and Credits
Policy and the fees for our services for promotional events (for example, free
listing days) and such changes are effective immediately. When you list an item
you have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged
for the use of our listing services. We may in our sole discretion change some
or all of our services at any time. In the event we introduce a new service,
the fees for that service are effective at the launch of the service. Unless
otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars. You are responsible for
paying all fees associated with using our service and our website and all
applicable taxes.
16. 4sale-or-auction.com is Only a Venue. Overview. Our site acts as the venue
for sellers to list items (or, as appropriate, solicit offers to buy) and
buyers to bid on items. We are not involved in the actual transaction between
buyers and sellers. As a result, we have no control over the quality, safety or
legality of the items advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings, the
ability of sellers to sell items or the ability of buyers to buy items. We
cannot ensure that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction.
Because user authentication on the Internet is difficult, 4sale-or-auction.com
cannot and does not confirm each user's purported identity. We encourage you to
communicate directly with potential trading partners. You may also wish to
consider using a third party escrow service or services that provide additional
user verification. Because we are not involved in the actual transaction
between buyers and sellers, in the event that you have a dispute with one or
more users, you release 4sale-or-auction.com (and our officers, directors,
agents, subsidiaries and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual
and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and
unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected
with such disputes. We do not control the information provided by other users
which is made available through our system. You may find other user's
information to be offensive, harmful, inaccurate, or deceptive. Please use
caution, common sense, and practice safe trading when using our site. Please
note that there are also risks of dealing with foreign nationals, underage
persons or people acting under false pretense.
17.Bidding and Buying. If you are the highest bidder at the end of an auction
(meeting the applicable minimum bid) and your bid is accepted by the seller,
you are obligated to complete the transaction with the seller, unless the
transaction is prohibited by law or by this Agreement. By bidding on an item
you agree to be bound by the conditions of sale included in the item's
description (or linked to from the description) so long as those conditions of
sale are not in violation of this Agreement or unlawful. Bids are not
retractable except in exceptional circumstances such as when the seller
materially changes the item's description after you bid, a clear typographical
error is made, or you cannot authenticate the seller's identity. If you choose
to bid on adult items, you are certifying that you have the legal right to
purchase such items.
18.Listing and Selling. Listing Description. Listings may only include text
descriptions, graphics and pictures you supply to our site (or that you link to
from our site) that describe your item for sale (or as appropriate, for which
are soliciting offers to buy). All listed items must be listed in an
appropriate category. If you receive at least one bid at or above your stated
minimum price, you are obligated to complete the transaction with the highest
bidder upon the auction's completion, unless there is an exceptional
circumstance, such as: (a) the buyer fails to meet the terms of your listing
(such as payment method), or (b) you cannot authenticate the buyer's identity.
Without limiting any other remedies, 4sale-or-auction.com may suspend or
terminate your account if you are found (by conviction, settlement, insurance
or escrow investigation, or otherwise) to have engaged in fraudulent activity
in connection with our site.
19. Your Information. "Your Information" is defined as any
information you provide to us or other users in the registration, bidding or
listing process, in any public message area or through any email feature. You
are solely responsible for Your Information, and we act as a passive conduit
for your online distribution and publication of Your Information. With respect
to Your Information. Your Information (or any items listed therein): (a) shall
not be false, inaccurate or misleading; (b) shall not be fraudulent or involve
the sale of counterfeit or stolen items; (c) shall not infringe any third
party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights
or rights of publicity or privacy; (d) shall not violate any law, statute,
ordinance or regulation (including without limitation those governing export
control, consumer protection, unfair competition, antidiscrimination or false
advertising); (e) shall not be defamatory, trade libelous, unlawfully
threatening or unlawfully harassing; (f) shall not contain any viruses, Trojan
horses, worms, time bombs, cancelbots or other computer programming routines
that are intended to damage, detrimentally interfere with, surreptitiously
intercept or expropriate any system, data or personal information; (g)shall not
create liability for us or cause us to lose (in whole or in part) the services
of our ISPs or other suppliers; and (h) shall not link directly or indirectly
to or include descriptions of goods or services that: (aa) are prohibited under
this Agreement; (bb) are identical to other items you have up for auction but
are priced lower than your item's reserve or minimum bid amount; (cc) are
concurrently listed for auction on a web site other than
4sale-or-auction.com's; or (dd) you do not have a right to link to or include.
Furthermore, you may not list any item on our site (or consummate any
transaction that was initiated using our service) that, by paying to us the
listing fee or the final value fee, could cause us to violate any applicable
law, statute, ordinance or regulation. Solely to enable 4sale-or-auction.com to
use the information you supply us with, so that we are not violating any rights
you might have in that information, you agree to grant us a non-exclusive,
worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable (through
multiple tiers) right to exercise the copyright and publicity rights (but no
other rights) you have in Your Information, in any media now known or not
currently known, with respect to Your Information. 4sale-or-auction.com will
only use Your Information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
20.Breach. Without limiting other remedies, we may immediately issue a warning,
temporarily suspend, indefinitely suspend or terminate your membership and
refuse to provide our services to you: (a) if you breach this Agreement or the
documents it incorporates by reference; (b) if we are unable to verify or
authenticate any information you provide to us; or (c) if we believe that your
actions may cause legal liability for you, our users or us.
21. TRUST. We are BBBOnline certified. This organization is dedicated to
building trust in the Internet by having member organizations such as
4sale-or-auction.com disclose information practices. Our policy on privacy is
held to high standards by this independent third party organization.
22.Notices. Except as explicitly stated otherwise, any notices shall be given
by postal mail to 4sale-or-auction.com Attn: Legal Department 309 Winding Way,
Womelsdorf, PA 19567 (in the case of 4sale-or-auction.com) or to the email
address you provide to 4sale-or-auction.com during the registration process (in
your case). Notice shall be deemed given 24 hours after email is sent, unless
the sending party is notified that the email address is invalid. Alternatively,
we may give you notice by certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt
requested, to the address provided to 4sale-or-auction.com during the
registration process. In such case, notice shall be deemed given 3 days after
the date of mailing.
23. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. These terms and conditions, together with those
incorporated herein or referred to herein constitute the entire agreement
between us relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any prior
understandings or agreements (whether oral or written) regarding the subject
matter, and may not be amended or modified except in writing or by making such
amendments or modifications available on this site.
