2. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU

2.1. You request us to provide our Services by registering with us. You may ask us to provide a link to our online inventory form, which you complete and submit online.

If we are unable or unwilling to supply our Services to you, we will notify you of this and we will not process your Order.

2.2. These Terms will become binding on you and us once you register with us and we accept your online inventory form, at which point the Contract will come into existence between us. You can then arrange with us for collection of the Item(s) (as defined in clause 4.1 below) you wish to sell or if you prefer, to deliver or post the Item(s) to us direct. Once an Item has been accepted for sale by us, you may not offer the Item for sale yourself or via any other forum without our consent or until you have completed with withdrawal process, including settling payments due to us in accordance with these Terms.

3.3. If your Item is rejected by us, your request for return of the rejected Items may be subject to return postage fees as set out in our 'Fees' page.

3.4. Our fees include VAT. If, however, the rate of VAT changes between the date of the Order and the date of delivery or performance of the Services, we will adjust our fees which you have to pay to reflect that, unless you have already paid our fees for the Services in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

3.5. Where we, our employees, directors, partners or other related parties wish to purchase an Item from you ourselves, this will either be suggested to you following an unsuccessful public Sale (where the offer to buy will be at the final price at which the item was listed at such Sale) or by writing to you with an offer to buy at a particular price and seeking your agreement to sell at that price.

3.6. In the event that we are owed any fees by you, we reserve the right to charge you interest at the annual rate of 4% per annum above the base rate of the Bank of England from time to time, calculated on a daily basis from the due date until the actual date of payment, whether before or after any judgment.

9. ESTIMATES

9.1. When we examine the Item we may (but are not obliged to) give an opinion as to the likely range of sale price achievable for it at Sale (Estimate). An Estimate is only an expression of our opinion. It is not an estimate of value, warranty or representation of fact. Since Items often sell for more and less than we expect, you must not rely on an Estimate as to the actual selling price or value which may be achieved. Your Item may not sell at all.

9.2. Our service for providing an Estimate is free of charge. In providing an Estimate, we owe you no duty other than to be honest in relation to any comments we make. We may revise any Estimate in our sole discretion.

9.3. You may be asked to give your own estimate or suggestion of an initial or first listing price of any accepted Item on eBay marketplace. You suggestion is not binding and may be revised at any time at our sole discretion without further notice to you.

10. PREPARATION FOR SALE

10.1. We will prepare details about the Item for the Sale (Details) using information that you have provided to us and based on a cursory visual inspection of the Item by a non-expert. We cannot test functionality or suitability of any Item.

10.2. Once the Item is listed for Sale, we will provide you with a link to the Details and you must notify us within 7 days of notification if you believe that the Details are deficient or inaccurate in any way. If we do not hear from you within that 7 day period, you are deemed to have accepted the Details as being correct and complete.

10.3. If you are selling an Item in the course of any trade, profession or business, the Details used will be the information you give us about the Item. The Details may, at our discretion, include photographs. All rights in the photographs are owned or licensed to us and you may not use the photographs other than where we are providing Services.

10.4. Where we have agreed to offer an Item for Sale, please note that we do not give you any warranty that the Item will sell for a particular price or that it will sell at all. You acknowledge that we have total discretion in determining the price at which the Item is offered or confirmed for Sale.

11. OUR RIGHT TO REFUSE TO SELL

11.1. We may refuse to sell any Item if we have reasonable cause to believe that you have no right to sell the Item or you are in breach of any of the promises, warranties and undertakings set out in these Terms, particularly clause 7. In such circumstances we will notify you accordingly, but you will remain liable to pay us applicable Fees which include our listing fee (if the Item has been listed for Sale) and the costs of returning the Item to you if you do not collect it from us (see clause 11.3).

11.2. We reserve the right to cancel the Contract between us in respect of any or all Item(s) when we examine such Item(s) at our Premises if we do not feel that an Item is suitable for Sale, in our sole discretion. Reasons for rejecting an Item include where an Item is illegal, not suitable for a Sale (for example, safety critical items like crash helmets or child car seats), not authenticated or where the provenance is unclear, despite our further queries. This list of reasons is not exhaustive. We may also reject an Item if our average Estimate is less than £25. If we cancel the Contract in this way, we will notify you accordingly by email.

11.3. Where we reject an Item for Sale under the provisions of clause 11.1 or 11.2, you can elect to have the Item sent back to you. If the Item weighs less than 25kg, we will return it to a UK address (or you can collect it from our Premises within 7 days). If the Item weighs more than 25kg, you will be required to collect the rejected Item from us at your cost. If you do not collect a rejected item or reply informing us that you would like to have the Item sent back to you at your own cost or pay for delivery charge for Item to be sent back to you when required to do so, we shall be entitled to dispose of the Item.

11.4. Please see our guidance as to what we sell here.

11.5. Please see our guidance as to what will not be accepted.

11.6. Before an Item will be returned to you or your removing any Item from our Premises you must pay us all sums you owe us and we have the right to retain the Item until you do so. In legal terms this means that we have a 'lien' over your Item.

12. BIDDING

12.1. Each Item is offered for Sale subject to eBay's terms and conditions of sale. We will send you a link to the live Sale pages so that you can see the progress of the Sale.

12.2. Each Item will be offered for sale without a minimum sales or reserve price, unless you have specified that you wish to fix an initial sales price for the first listing of the Item(s) for Sale.

12.3. YOU AUTHORISE US TO ACCEPT BIDS AND OFFERS AND TO SELL THE ITEM AT SALE ON YOUR BEHALF IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION (ALTHOUGH WE SHALL OFFER THE ITEM(S) FOR SALE FOR THE FIRST LISTING AT ANY INITIAL SALES PRICE YOU HAVE SPECIFIED IN ACCORDANCE WITH CLAUSE 12.2). YOU ALSO AUTHORISE US TO REFUSE A BID OR OFFER, IF SUCH REFUSAL IS REASONABLE FOR THE PROTECTION OF YOUR INTERESTS AND OURS.

13. UNSOLD ITEMS

13.1. You acknowledge that if an Item is not sold at a particular Sale, it will be automatically relisted weekly at no extra charge and offered for Sale at a lower (or higher) price, determined in our sole discretion.

13.2. You acknowledge that we continue to offer the Item for Sale until such time as it is sold, using such pricing structure as we determine. The price at which an Item is offered might be increased or decreased. If the Item remains unsold at a price of 99 pence despite our multiple efforts to sell at a higher price we deem that Item unsaleable and you agree that we shall be entitled to buy the Item from you for the nominal sum of 1 pence.

14. SALE PROCEEDS

14.1. Once an Item has sold, we process payment, pack and ship the Item and manage any buyer complaints and returns.

14.2. You acknowledge that ownership of the Item will pass from you to the buyer on receipt by us of the sale proceeds from the buyer (Sale Proceeds), Risk in the Item will be transferred to the buyer on delivery of the Item to the buyer, unless otherwise stipulated by law. For the avoidance of doubt, the Sale Proceeds are the payment for the item only and does not include any additional charges we make to the buyer for delivery, storage or other services. You authorise us to release and deliver the Item to the buyer on your behalf and to transfer ownership to the buyer once the Sale Proceeds have been received.

14.3. We are entitled to deduct our fees (as detailed in clause 3) from the Sale Proceeds. The Sale Proceeds less our fees is known as Your Proceeds.

15. PAYING YOUR PROCEEDS

15.1. After the Item has sold, we process payment, pack and ship the Item to the buyer and manage any buyer complaints and returns.

15.2. Please note that where the buyer is a 'consumer', he or she has a cooling off period in which to reject the Item (regardless of whether or not it is faulty). If the Item is sold with a manufacturer's warranty, the Item may be returned during that warranty period.

15.3. If a buyer is entitled to reject the Item for any other reason (for example, if the Item is faulty), we will offer the buyer either a full refund and be required to return the Item to us or a partial refund and the buyer keeps the Item. We would be entitled to request reimbursement from you of any refund and postage charge paid by us. You acknowledge that you would be liable to the buyer for such reimbursement and postage costs if you had sold the Item direct to the buyer yourself.

15.4. We will pay you Your Proceeds to you by cheque to the address you have given us. Your Proceeds will be sent to you after all Items in an Order are sold and when the consumer cooling off periods referred to in clause 15.2 in respect of the batch of all Items you have requested us to sell on your behalf have expired. We may pay incomplete batches in our sole discretion. We reserve the right to pay you by direct bank transfer in our sole discretion. We may also make payments by PayPal on a case by case basis.

15.5. If before Your Proceeds have been paid to you the buyer of the Item or any other person makes a claim against you or us in relation to the Item (Claim), we may retain payment of Your Proceeds until the Claim has been resolved. In the event that there is a Claim, we may further deduct from Your Proceeds all legal and other costs and expenses incurred by us in dealing with the Claim. In the event that Your Proceeds are insufficient are to deal with our costs and expenses incurred in dealing with the Claim, you will pay us any shortfall immediately when we ask for it.

15.6. If a Claim is received after we have paid you Your Proceeds, you agree to reimburse us when we ask for it for all our legal and other cost and expenses incurred by us in dealing with the Claim.

15.7. If it becomes apparent that the Item is subject to a Claim, we may, in our sole discretion, deal with the Item in a manner which we reasonably believe protects our legitimate interests and the other party(ies) involved.

16. OUR LIABILITY TO YOU

If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

26.6. If you are a consumer, please note that these Terms are governed by English law. This means a Contract and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law. You and we both agree to that the courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive jurisdiction. If you are a resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.

26.7. If you are a business, a Contract and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales. We both irrevocably agree that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with a Contract or its subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims).
