6.1 - General. PlayerAuctions provides an electronic web–based platform for exchanging information between buyers ("Buyer") and sellers ("Seller") of products and services.

6.2 - Users are solely responsible for all of the terms and conditions of the transactions conducted on, through, or as a result of use of the Site, including, without limitation, terms regarding payment, returns, warranties, shipping, insurance, fees, taxes, title, licenses, fines, permits, handling, transportation and storage.

6.3 - PlayerAuctions does not represent the Seller or the Buyer in specific transactions, nor does PlayerAuctions act as an agent for either Seller or Buyer. PlayerAuctions does not control and is not liable to or responsible for the quality, safety, lawfulness, or availability of the products or services offered for sale on the Site, the ability of Sellers to complete a sale, or the ability of Buyers to complete a purchase. Users are hereby made aware that there may be risks of dealing with other Users acting under false pretenses. PlayerAuctions uses several techniques to verify the accuracy of the information our Users provide to us when they register on the Site. However, because User verification on the Internet is complex and problematic, PlayerAuctions cannot and does not confirm each User's purported identity. We encourage you to use the various tools available on the Site, as well as common sense, to evaluate with whom you are dealing.

6.4 - Assumption of Risks. Each User acknowledges that it is fully assuming all Transaction Risks when using the Site to conduct transactions, and that it is fully assuming the risks of liability or harm of any kind in connection with using the Site. Each User agrees that PlayerAuctions shall not be liable or responsible for any damages, liabilities, costs, harms, inconveniences, business disruptions, or expenditures of any kind that may arise as a result of or in connection with any Transaction Risks.

6.5 Taxes. Users shall pay all sales and use taxes and all other taxes arising from their use of the Site.

7.1 - Seller fees. The fees we charge for using our Services are listed on our Seller Fees & Disbursements page. PlayerAuctions may change its fees from time to time by posting the changes on the Site 14 days in advance, but with no advance notice required for temporary promotions.

7.2 - Buyer fees. The fees we charge for processing payments are posted on our Buyer Payments page. PlayerAuctions may change its fees from time to time by posting the changes on the Site 14 days in advance, but with no advance notice required for temporary promotions.

7.3 - Miscellaneous. Users must have a payment method on file when selling or buying on PlayerAuctions, and Users must pay all fees and applicable taxes associated with our Services by the payment due date. If your payment method fails or your account is past due, we may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms. (This includes charging other payment methods on file with us, as well as retaining collection agencies and legal counsel). In addition, Users will be subject to late fees. Also see 8.2 and 8.3 below for fines, deposits, and reimbursement obligations related to violations of this User Agreement.

8.1 - PlayerAuctions as Arbitrator. In the event that any User has a dispute with any other User with regard to a transaction on the Site, such User agrees to submit the dispute to PlayerAuctions as the arbitrator for final and binding judgment. In order to allow PlayerAuctions to fairly and reasonably conduct investigations, Users agree to refrain from seeking third party arbitration while an order is still open or pending. Users who seek third party intervention (with the exception of Government Investigative Authorities) will be seen as interfering with the investigative process and attempting to force a decision in their favor. PlayerAuctions reserves the right to suspend or permanently ban Users who attempt to interfere with standard operating procedures for orders which are still active or pending.

8.2 - Obligation to Reimburse. If a Seller is required to reimburse the Buyer or PlayerAuctions, the Seller authorizes PlayerAuctions to remove the reimbursement amount (in same or other currency) from their designated payment method (i.e. PayPal) on PlayerAuctions. The Seller is required to have a valid payment method on file. If there are insufficient funds in the account, the Seller authorizes PlayerAuctions to charge any reimbursement amount owed to the payment method on file. PlayerAuctions may also place the reimbursement amount on the Seller’s invoice. If Seller does not provide PlayerAuctions with a valid payment method, we may collect the outstanding sums using other collection mechanisms, including retaining collection agencies.

8.3 - Fines. In the rare event that PlayerAuctions determines that a dispute between Users is due to a User’s breach of this User Agreement, the breaching User authorizes PlayerAuctions to levy a fine against the User’s payment method, up to $150.00. In addition, PlayerAuctions may suspend or ban the User’s Account, and/or require a deposit of up to $300.00 to reactive the User’s Account.

8.4 - Release. If you have a dispute with one or more Users, you agree to release and indemnify PlayerAuctions and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, and subsidiaries from all claims, demands, actions, proceedings, costs, expenses and damages, including without limitation any actual, special, incidental or consequential damages of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such dispute. In entering into this release you expressly waive any protections (whether statutory or otherwise) that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims that you may know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of agreeing to this release.
