Bidding.
Placing
a bid on an item is an irrevocable offer to buy the item(s) at the price in the
bid, provided the bid is a winning bid at the time of the close of the auction.
A winning bid is a bid that is the highest bid on an item, or in the event of a
tie, the bid placed chronologically earliest. In the case of a reserve price
auction a bid is only a winning bid if it meets or exceeds the reserve price on
the item. In the case of a Dutch auction there may be more than one winning bid
depending on the quantity of items available and the number of bids placed.
Placing a bid constitutes entering into a binding legal agreement with the
seller to purchase the item(s) at the winning bid price and in accordance with
the terms stated in the item listing and the rules of this site. You must
resolve any questions about the item by contacting the seller of the item prior
to placing a bid. Do not place a bid until you are sure that you understand
what you are bidding on and, if necessary, have received a response from the
seller of the item regarding any questions you may have.
Once a bid is placed it may not be cancelled or retracted without the
permission of the seller. The seller is not obligated to grant permission to
retract or cancel a bid, and it is not the duty of this auction site to request
permission from the seller for a bid retraction or cancellation. Any bid
cancellation must be worked out between buyer and seller without assistance
from the auction site.
Biding is subject to bid increments and items may be subject to a minimum
bid.
By bidding on an item, you authorize us to release your contact information,
including name, address, email, and telephone number, to the seller who listed
the item.Auctions will not be extended due to technical difficulties. Do not
wait until the last minute to bid!
Please do not contact sellers with best offers unless they have “make
an offer” enabled on their listing. Repeated offer attempts on listings
that do not have “make an offer”, will result in your account being
suspended for review.
Listing.
Placing
an item for auction is an irrevocable offer to sell an item to the winning
bidder. The winning bidder is the highest bidder on the item, or in the event
of a tie, the bidder who placed the highest bid chronologically earliest. In
the case of a reserve price auction a bid is only a winning bid if it meets or
exceeds the reserve price on the item. In the case of a Dutch auction there may
be more than one winning bid depending on the quantity of items available and
the number of bids placed.
Listing an item constitutes entering a binding legal agreement to sell the
item to the highest bidder as determined by the rules of the auction. Items
listed on this auction site may not be concurrently offered for sale on any
other online auction site. Once an item is listed and has received a winning
bid, the item may not be withdrawn from sale. Please consider carefully whether
you want to place an item for auction.
When listing items, ensure that the items listed for auction do not infringe
upon the copyright, trademark or other rights of those third parties. By

infringe on the intellectual property of any third party and that you have a
legal right to sell the items you list.

additional unrelated keywords to your listing to make it show up through our
Search facilities is prohibited. Item Titles may not be in ALL CAPS.
The sale of your item(s) on this auction site:
(a)shall not be fraudulent or
involve the sale of counterfeit or stolen items;
(b)shall not infringe any third
party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights
or rights of publicity or privacy;

false advertising);
(d)shall not be defamatory,

surreptitiously intercept or expropriate any system, data or personal
information.
You may not post on our site or sell through our site any:
(a) item 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, or
(b) live animals, human beings or body parts (relics, skulls, human remains
or other parts), bulk email lists, illegal weapons,
instructions/kits/plans/parts designed to illegally convert firearms to
full-auto fire, instructions/kits/plans/parts designed to illegally build
silencers, or instructions on how to build bombs or explosives, any and all
types of pornography or any lewd lascivious behavior.
In the event of a conflict the rules of the auction as specified by this
document supersede the terms stated in the seller's auction listing. A seller
may not alter the rules of the auction by the language of his listing.
By listing an item, you authorize us to release your contact information,
including name, address, email, and telephone number, to the bidders who place bids
on this item.
Listing Content / Multiple Listings.
Auction
listings must offer a specific product or service at a specific price. Any
listing deemed to be general advertising instead of an offering of something
specific for sale will be removed. We reserve the right to edit or remove
auction listings as deemed necessary by the auction site. Listings may be moved
to a different category if deemed inappropriate for the listed category, so put
your listing in the most appropriate category. We reserve the right to remove
any listing deemed inappropriate or in violation of the letter or spirit of our
rules.
We do not allow the posting of excessive numbers of listings for the same
item. Excessive duplicate listings will be removed without notice.
Terms of Sale.
Unless
otherwise stated in the seller's Auction Description, the terms of sale of an
auction item are as follows:
Buyer pre-pays in US funds by
personal or business check, bank check, money order, or Escrow.
Personal or business checks
will be held until they clear (7 business days).
Buyer pays estimated actual
cost of shipping and insurance.
Payment must be received
within 10 days of initial contact by seller
Item is guaranteed to be
working and as described when delivered; no other warranty (express or
implied) is offered by seller.
Firearms must be shipped only
to an FFL Holder. Buyer must mail a copy of his (or his transfer dealer's)
license, signed in blue or red ink, to the seller before the item can be
shipped. Buyer must make arrangements with a Transfer Dealer before
placing a bid.
Other items such as
ammunition or knives may require proof of age before they can be shipped.
The seller can hold personal checks or money orders until payment clears for
a maximum of seven (7) business days. Items must be shipped promptly upon
clearance of funds. In general, no transaction should take over 30 days from
the close of auction until the buyer receives the item. Seller (or seller's
common carrier) is responsible for the item until the item is received by the
buyer or the buyer's transfer dealer. We strongly recommend insuring all
shipments and using delivery confirmation wherever possible.
'Side Deals' / Non-Winning Bidders.
Any
transaction made between a non-winning bidder and a seller is a 'side deal' and
is outside the scope of this auction site and its rules. Our Privacy Policy
prohibits us from providing contact information for users involved in a 'side
deal'. Buyers and sellers involved in a 'side deal' cannot post reputation. We
provide absolutely no assistance of any kind for buyers and sellers involved in
a 'side deal' in any way in the event of problems.
If a bid does not meet or exceed the reserve price (if any) on the item then
the bid is not a winning bid and the non-winning bidder is not obligated to buy
the item. Sellers are prohibited from soliciting side deals with
non-winning bidders during or after the auction. Non-winning bidders are
prohibited from contacting sellers and requesting a side deal during or
after the auction. Soliciting side deals may result in suspension or
termination of your account.
Non-US Sellers.
Sorry
at this time we only allow U.S. Sellers and buyers to participate on this site.
Fraud Prevention / Dispute Resolution.
We
provide a reputation system where buyers and sellers can publicly post their
experiences with each other. Before placing a bid, the buyer should check the
seller's reputation to see how the seller has handled himself in past
transactions. We strongly recommend that the buyer use either a credit card or an
online escrow service because of the extra protection these offer. Never send
cash or use any payment method that provides no proof of payment!
If you were the winning bidder in an auction transaction, sent payment, and
either did not receive your item or received an item substantially different
than what was advertised please contact us for our assistance..
For disputes between a buyer and seller other than fraud claims as described
above, we provide a reputation system where buyers and sellers can post their
experiences with the other party for all to see. As per the Reputation section
of this document we will not arbitrate disputes over reputation.
Auction Closing.
The
auction listings display the scheduled closing time for the auction.
System Abuse.
This
auction site reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. We will exercise
this right with "problem" buyers who win an auction and fail to
complete the transaction, and with "problem" sellers who list an item
and fail to sell it to the high bidder(s).
Without limiting any other remedies, this auction site may 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.
You agree to be liable for and to pay for any costs incurred by this site
for your misuse of the site or for your violation of any of the site's rules,
including but not limited to Final Value Fees incurred for any items you win
but fail to pay for, Final Value Fees for any items on which you place
fraudulent bids, and the cost of our time spent in resolving deliberate rules
violations.
Bid Manipulation.
Bid
manipulation of any kind is forbidden. A seller is prohibited from placing bids
or arranging to have bids placed on behalf of seller, seller's agent or
assigns. No shill bidding is allowed. Buyers are prohibited from communicating
with each other with the purpose of manipulating the final purchase price of an
item.
Technical Difficulties.
This
auction site is not responsible for bids not being processed or not being
accepted due to technical difficulties. Auctions will not be extended due to
technical problems. Do not wait until the last minute to bid!
User-Generated Content.
This
auction site is not responsible for the content of user-generated content
including auction listings, messages on our message forums, reputation,
pictures, etc. For legal reasons we do not screen user-generated content.
You are solely responsible for any information you post our use on this
site, and we act as a passive conduit for your online distribution and
publication of this information. If you post information that is slanderous,
violates any international, federal, state, or local law, or violates the
intellectual property of another party you will be solely liable for the
consequences. We may take any action with respect to such information we deem
necessary or appropriate in our sole discretion if we believe it may create
liability for us or may cause us to lose (in whole or in part) the services of
our ISPs or other suppliers.

intellectual property are covered in this document under the section labeled
Intellectual Property.
Illegal Items.
By
registering as a member of and using this site you agree that all transactions
do not violate any applicable local, state, federal and/or international laws.
Reputation.
Reputation
may only be posted between the winning bidder and the seller in a
transaction. Reputation is associated with a specific item listing and must
pertain specifically to that item listing. By submitting reputation you agree
that your rating and comments are truthful to the best of your knowledge and
accurately reflect what happened in the transaction. You may not take any
actions which could undermine the integrity of the reputation system, including
posting fraudulent good reputation to artificially improve another user's
rating or posting bogus bad reputation to falsely damage another user's rating.
If you accumulate excessive negative reputation or display a pattern of
unacceptable behavior your account may be suspended or permanently terminated.
We are not responsible for the information posted by a user in the reputation
system. It is not our responsibility to determine the 'truthfulness' of posted reputation,
and we do not arbitrate disputes over reputation. We reserve the right to

the reputation system and/or through email with our site administrators.

invalid credit card, even if our software initially accepts such a bid. Please
be aware that even if you do not give us your real name your web browser
transmits a unique Internet address to us which can be used by law enforcement
officials to identify you. Do not test our auctions with false bids. This puts
you at substantial personal legal risk. Fraudulent bidders will be prosecuted
to the fullest extent of the law. Currently, both the FBI and the US Secret
Service are responsible for investigating Internet fraud cases.
