All Sorts Market Buyer and Sellers Protection

Buyers and sellers share the responsibility for making sure purchases facilitated by All Sorts Market are exciting, rewarding and hassle-free. We strongly encourage buyers to work with sellers before opening a case relating to a purchase.

We require buyers and sellers to comply with the requirements of All Sorts Market Buyer Protection Policy. All Sorts Market Buyer Protection applies only to cases filed in accordance with the All Sorts Market Buyer Protection Policy, not cases filed with the payment services provided. We may suspend the All Sorts Market Buyer Protection policy without notice if we suspect that abuse or interference with the proper working of the policy.

All Sorts Market sellers shall comply with our resolution process. Buyers and sellers permit us to make a final decision, in our sole discretion, on any claim that a buyer files with All Sorts Market under the All Sorts Market Buyer Protection Policy and agree to the following:

Sellers must have a reimbursement method on file with All Sorts Market. Sellers may change this reimbursement method by

Contacting All Sorts Market and searching for Change My Reimbursement Method.

(If we resolve a dispute in the buyer’s favour, we may:

remove funds from the seller’s Payment account to reimburse the buyer for the full cost of the item and the original postage cost; or other payment method you chose to use.

where there are insufficient funds in the seller’s Paymentl account or where Payment is not the reimbursement method of the seller, we will require another payment method.

For this purpose you, in the capacity of a seller;

authorise and instruct us and the payment method used to collect or reverse variable amounts (representing payments related to covered claims) from your payment Account to carry out a buyer reimbursement;

authorise and instruct us to request your payment methods to restrict your access to funds (the restriction will apply up to a sum equivalent to the cost of the item and original postage costs paid by the buyer) in your payment account at any point during the resolution process (This may result in you determining to restrict funds in your PayPal account in order to manage PayPal’s risk exposure pursuant to PayPal policies. See Restricting funds.); and

authorise and instruct us to charge the payment method you select to recover the amount we pay to the buyer (in cases where we refund the buyer directly).

You acknowledge and agree that your authorisations above will be made on a recurring basis and on various dates as required by us to implement the terms of the All Sorts Market Buyer Protection Policy.

For future claims, where we resolve a dispute in the buyer’s favour, we will notify the seller and continue to charge the seller’s preferred method of reimbursement. Changing a reimbursement method will not affect All Sorts Market’s use of a payment method on file for other purposes (such as payment of your All Sorts Market fees). If sellers do not provide All Sorts Market with a valid reimbursement method, we may collect the outstanding sums using other collection mechanisms, including retaining collection agencies. We may also suspend or restrict sellers from trading on our sites until payment is made.

Without limiting the foregoing, sellers may not have to pay reimbursement for an All Sorts Market claim if they provide the documentation (for example, delivery confirmation or proof that the item was as described) indicated in the All Sorts Market Buyer Protection Policy.

Correcting mistakes in payments to buyers and sellers

We reserve the right to fix any processing errors we discover. We will correct any processing errors by debiting or crediting the payment method used for the erroneous All Sorts Market Buyer Protection refund or reimbursement.

Restricting funds

To protect against the risk of liability, All Sorts Market has at times requested, and may continue to request, that PayPal restrict access to funds in a seller’s PayPal account based on certain factors, including, but not limited to, selling history, seller performance, riskiness of the listing category, or the filing of an All Sorts Market Buyer Protection case. This may result in PayPal determining to restrict funds in your PayPal account in order to manage PayPal’s risk exposure pursuant to PayPal policies.

No spam

We do not tolerate spam (unsolicited commercial communications). Please set your All Sorts Market notification preferences so we communicate to you as you prefer. You may not add other All Sorts Market users, even a user who has purchased an item from you, to your mailing list (email or physical mail) without their consent.

You may not use our communication tools to send spam or otherwise send content that would breach our User Agreement. We may automatically scan and manually filter email messages before they are sent via our communication tools for spam, viruses, phishing attacks and other malicious activity or illegal or prohibited content, but we do not permanently store such messages. If you send an email to an email address that is not a registered All Sorts Market email address belonging to an All Sorts Market member, we do not permanently store that email or use that email address for any marketing purpose. We do not rent or sell these email addresses.

To report spam from other All Sorts Market users, please contact All Sorts Market Customer Services.

　

Using information about other All Sorts Market users

Our site and services enable users to share personal and financial information in order to complete transactions. When users are involved in a transaction, they may obtain access to each other's name, user ID, email address, and other contact information, postal information and financial information. We cannot guarantee that other users will respect the privacy or security of your information and therefore we encourage you to evaluate the privacy and security policies of your trading partners before entering into transactions and choosing to share your information with them. Similarly, we ask you to respect other users' privacy and disclose your privacy and security policies to them. By law, you must give other users a chance to remove themselves from your database and a chance to review the information you have collected about them.

You agree to use user information only in accordance with applicable laws and regulations (including, without limitation, data protection laws) and only for:

allsortsmarket-transaction-related purposes that are not unsolicited commercial communications

using services offered through allsortsmarket; and

other purposes a user expressly agrees to.

Fees

Joining All Sorts Market and bidding on listed items is free. We do charge fees for using other services, such as listing items. When you list an item or use a service that has a fee you have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged based on our Fees Policy, which we may change from time to time. We will give you notice of any proposed changes to our Fees Policy by email, by posting the changes on the All Sorts Market site or via your "Messages". You may close your account without penalty within 30 days of such notice being given. Otherwise, changes to our Fees Policy are effective 30 days after such notice being given. We may choose to temporarily change the fees for our services for promotional events (for example, free listing days) or new services, and such changes are effective when we post the temporary promotional event or new service on the sites.

Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in GB pounds sterling. You are responsible for paying all fees and applicable taxes associated with using our site and services in a timely manner with a valid payment method. If your payment method fails or your account is overdue, we may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms. (This includes charging other payment methods on file with us and retaining collection agencies and legal counsel, and for accounts over 180 days overdue, deducting the amount owed from your payment services account balance.) You agree that we may issue you with invoices in electronic format by email.

Content

When you give us content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) right to exercise any and all copyright, publicity, trade marks, database rights and intellectual property rights you have in the content, in any media known now or in the future. In addition, you waive all moral rights you have in the content to the fullest extent permitted by law.

For the convenience of sellers, we may offer catalogues of stock images, descriptions and product specifications, which are provided by third-parties (including All Sorts Market users) you may use catalogue content solely in connection with your All Sorts Market listings during the time your listings are on All Sorts Market’s site.

While we try to offer reliable data, we cannot promise that the catalogues will always be accurate and up-to-date, and you agree that you will not hold our catalogue providers or us responsible for inaccuracies in their catalogues. If you choose to include catalogue content in your listings, you continue to be responsible for ensuring that your listings are accurate, do not include misleading information and fully comply with this User Agreement and all of All Sorts Market policies. The catalogue may include copyrighted, trademarked or other proprietary materials. You agree not to remove any copyright, proprietary or identification markings included within the catalogues or create any derivative works bases on catalogue content (other than by including them in your listings).

Liability

You will not hold All Sorts Market responsible for any loss you may incur as a result of All Sorts Market taking any of the actions described in the Abusing. All Sorts Market section above nor for other users' actions or inactions, including, without limitation, things they post, items they list or their destruction of allegedly fake items. You acknowledge that we are not a traditional auctioneer. Instead, our sites are venues to allow anyone to offer, sell, and buy just about anything, at anytime, from anywhere, in a variety of pricing formats and locations, such as stores, fixed price formats and auction-style formats. At no point do we have possession of anything listed or sold through All Sorts Market.

We do not review users’ listings or content and are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers. While we may help facilitate the resolution of disputes through various programmes, we have no control over and do not guarantee the quality, safety or legality of items advertised, the truth or accuracy of listings, the truth or accuracy of feedback or other content posted by users on our site, the ability of sellers to sell items, the ability of buyers to pay for items, or that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction or return an item. For certain categories, particularly motors vehicles and real estate, or bid or offer is a non-binding transaction representing a buyer’s serious expression of interest in buying the seller’s item and does not create a contract for sale between the buyer and the seller.

Please do not assume that the offer, sale, purchase, export or import of any item is valid and legal simply because it is listed on one of our sites.

You accept sole responsibility for the legality of your actions under laws applying to you and the legality of any items you list on any of our sites.

Although we use techniques that aim to verify the accuracy and truth of the information provided by our users, user verification on the internet is difficult. All Sorts Market cannot and does not confirm, and is not responsible for ensuring, the accuracy or truthfulness of users' purported identities or the validity of the information which they provide to us or post on our sites.

We cannot guarantee continuous or secure access to our services, and operation of our sites may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control. While we will use our reasonable endeavours to maintain an uninterrupted service, we cannot guarantee this and we do not give any promises or warranties (whether express or implied) about the availability of our services.

We(including our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents and employees) shall not be liable to you in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise for any business losses, such as loss of data, profits, revenue, business, opportunity, goodwill, reputation or business interruption or for any losses which are not reasonably foreseeable by us arising, directly or indirectly, out of your use of or your inability to use of our sites and services.

Regardless of the previous paragraphs, if we are found to be liable, our liability to you or to any third party is limited to the greater of (a) any amounts due under the allsortsmarket Buyer Protection Policy up to the full cost of the item and its original postage costs, (b) the total fees (under All Sorts Market Fees and Services) you paid to us in the 12 months prior to the action giving rise to the liability, and (c) £100.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or exclusion of damages, so such disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you. This is especially so if you are a consumer.

Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or exclude our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation, for death or personal injury resulting from our negligence or the negligence of our agents or employees or for any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded by law.

Release

If you have a dispute with one or more users, you release us (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
