You accept and agree to be bound by the Terms & Conditions, operating rules and/or policies of Auctionitems.com, published by Auctionitems.com as described below (all such Terms & Conditions, operating rules and/or policies as they may be amended from time to time shall hereinafter be referred to as these "Terms & Conditions"). Members may be referred to as "Member," "User," "Buyer" when a Member is being described as acting as a buyer in a Auctionitems.com transaction, "Bidder" when a Member is being described as bidding on an asset in order to act as a potential buyer in a Auctionitems.com transaction, and "Seller" when a Member is acting as a seller in a Auctionitems.com transaction. These Terms & Conditions comprise the entire agreement between Member and Auctionitems.com and supersede all prior agreements between the parties, regarding the subject matter contained herein. 1.2 DESCRIPTION OF AUCTIONITEMS.COM SERVICES Auctionitems.com acts as a venue for Sellers to list properties and Buyers to bid on properties. Auctionitems.com is not involved in the actual transactions between Buyers and Sellers and assume no responsibility for actions made based on information or services on Auctionitems.com. In the event that any parties using our Site, including Sellers, Buyers and Bidders, have a dispute, the Company (including our officers, directors, agents, affiliates, and employees) is not liable for any claims, demands and damages arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes. The information published on the Site may include inaccuracies or errors. While the Company strives to keep the information on the Site accurate, complete and up-to-date, the Company cannot guarantee, and will not be responsible for any damage or loss related to the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the information. Such information is provided without warranty of any kind. In no event shall the Company (and our officers, directors, agents, affiliates, and employees) be liable for any claims, demands and damages arising out of or in any way connected with the use of the Site, the delay or inability to use the Site, or any information or services obtained from the Site. 1.3 WHO CAN BID? Bidders must register with Auctionitems.com as a Member and be capable of forming legally binding relations under applicable law. The services provided by Auctionitems.com are not available to individuals under the age of 18 years old and any other individuals who are legally prohibited from, or otherwise incapable of, entering into binding contracts. 1.4 WHO CAN SELL? Sellers must be the rightful owners or authorized by the owners of such property, a court of law, or through power of attorney to sell an Asset. Sellers must produce evidence of ownership and/or authorization to sell an Asset upon request of Auctionitems.com or a Buyer. 1.5 PROCEDURE FOR CONDUCTING AUCTIONS Assets are listed for the specified bidding periods shown on the Site and are deemed "sold" at the close of bidding which will be set at a time pre-determined by the Seller. Each Asset will have a description and disclosure information on the Site, as well as any additional conditions of sale provided by the Seller. Once bidding commences, Bidders may make a bid at any time prior to closing of the bidding. All Assets will have a minimum bid price disclosed on the Site. For certain Assets, the Seller may impose a reserve price which is not disclosed on the Site. If there are no bids above the minimum bid or reserve price (whichever is higher), then the Seller is not obligated to sell the Asset. After bidding closes on each Asset, Auctionitems.com will send the highest Bidder and Seller an email detailing the highest bid and contact information. In all auctions Buyers who receive a winning bid notice are legally bound to buy the asset at the quoted bid amount (see "Contractual Obligations of Buyers and Sellers" below), and the Seller is legally bound to sell the asset, pursuant to these Terms & Conditions, subject to the additional conditions of sale specified by Seller. The Seller is obligated to contact the winning Bidder within three (3) business days to complete the transaction (or the Seller may engage a representative, including Auctionitems.com, to contact the winning Bidder on the Seller's behalf, pursuant to prior agreement). After three (3) business days if the Seller is unable to contact the winning Bidder, for whatever reason, the Seller may, in its sole discretion (a) continue to attempt to contact the high bidder with assistance from Auctionitems.com; (b) after contacting Auctionitems.com, contact the second highest Bidder and sell the Asset to the second highest Bidder; or (c) re-list the asset on the Site. By selling an Asset to the next highest Bidder, neither the Seller nor Auctionitems.com is releasing any claims he/she/it may have against the highest Bidder for non-performance. Once the Seller contacts the winning Bidder, the Seller and winning Bidder shall complete the settlement of the purchase and sale of the Asset pursuant to "Settlement of Transactions" below. 1.6 SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS The settlement of a purchase and sale of an Asset following a completed bidding process shall be conducted pursuant to this Section, unless otherwise provided in the Seller's conditions of sale or in a written agreement executed by the Buyer and Seller. Unless otherwise provided in the Seller's conditions of sale or otherwise agreed upon by the Seller and Buyer in writing, final settlement shall take place no later than seven (7) business days after Buyer is given a Winning Bid notice. 1.7 USER NAME AND PASSWORD Once a party becomes a Member of the Site, the Member will select a user name and a password. Members are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their user names and passwords. Furthermore, Members are entirely responsible for any and all activities, which occur under a Member's ID and password. Member agrees to immediately notify Auctionitems.com of any unauthorized use of Member's ID or any other breach of security known to Member. 1.8 CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS OF BUYERS AND SELLERS Terms & Conditions As Contract. These Terms & Conditions, together with any additional conditions of sale provided by a Seller for a particular Asset disclosed on the Site, comprise a contract between a Seller and the winning Bidder in any completed auction. By bidding on an Asset a Bidder agrees, and by listing an Asset on the Site, a Seller agrees, to be bound by these Terms & Conditions and the Seller's conditions of sale included in the Asset's description, so long as those conditions of sale are not in violation of these Terms & Conditions or unlawful. In the event of any direct conflict between these Terms & Conditions and any conditions of sale provided by a Seller, then these Terms & Conditions shall prevail, except that in the event of a direct conflict regarding the timing and requirements of settlement provided in the Section entitled "Settlement of Transactions" above, then the Seller's conditions of sale shall prevail with respect to such provisions. 1.9 BINDING CONTRACT BETWEEN BUYER AND SELLER A bid made by a Buyer is an offer to purchase the asset from the Seller at the stated bid price. The bid is an irrevocable offer; subject only to material changes in the description of an asset made after such bid is placed by a Buyer. Buyers are required to conduct any research or due diligence of an asset prior to making a bid (See "Other Responsibilities of Bidders/Buyers" below). All Assets are listed and sold on an "as is" basis. If a Buyer bids on an asset and that bid represents the highest bid for that asset, and the highest bid is at or above the Seller's minimum and/or reserve price (whichever is higher), the Buyer's bid is deemed accepted by the Seller (subject to these Terms & Conditions, including the right of a Buyer to change or retract a bid in the event of a material change in the description of the Asset, as set forth below), except for an exceptional circumstance, such as a typographical error. Once a Buyer's bid is accepted by the Seller, the Buyer is obligated to purchase the asset at the price he/she/it offered and pursuant to these Terms & Conditions and the Seller's conditions of sale. If a Seller receives at least one bid at or above the Seller's stated minimum price (or in the case where the Seller has set a reserve price, at or above the reserve price), the Seller is obligated to complete the transaction with the highest Bidder upon the completion of the bidding, unless there is an exceptional circumstance, such as a clear typographical error or other conditions stated in these Terms & Conditions. 1.10 CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE AND SALE All purchases and sales of Assets and use of the Site by Members shall be conducted in compliance with applicable law. Purchases made on the Site are entirely without recourse to Auctionitems.com. All Members acknowledge and agree that closing of all sales of Assets may be subject to final approval of a court (including a bankruptcy court) or other agency and that if such approval is not obtained, the Seller may withdraw such Asset after a completed bidding process without any recourse or liability on the part of Seller. 1.11 BUYER AND SELLER CONTRACT OBLIGATIONS All Members are third party beneficiaries of these Terms & Conditions, and Buyers and Sellers shall be entitled to enforce the provisions hereof and may pursue legal action against each other for non-performance of any provision hereof, including without limitation, non-performance of a purchase and sale after a completed bidding process.
