The following General Terms and Conditions shall apply exclusively to the business relationship between www.au72.net, its internet platform www.au72.net ('www.au72.net') and our users. By using www.au72.net, the user accepts the following General Terms and Conditions, as well as the manner in which www.au72.net and its “T-matics” operate as described on the website www.au72.net. Variations or alterations in the following Terms and Conditions shall only be binding upon www.au72.net. if agreed to in writing.
Any special promotions run by www.au72.net shall only be valid if they are announced on www.au72.net website or in its corresponding email newsletter. Certain promotions may only be valid for a limited time, and details of any such timings will be announced on the website or in a newsletter. Once the advertised time limit of any such promotion has been reached, or the relevant auction or auctions have ended, the promotion is also finished.
Any bidding advice or other written materials (for instance, ‘Help’ articles) posted on www.au72.net are provided solely as suggestions and are not intended to be relied upon. www.au72.net is not liable or responsible for any actions taken due to a user or other person having read or been told about such advice or other written materials.

By placing a bid on www.au72.net, the user declares that they are legally capable of entering into binding contracts and that they are at least 18 years old.
Employees and relatives of employees of www.au72.net are not eligible to participate in www.au72.net auctions under any circumstances.
Owww.au72.net products and services are offered exclusively to private users and not to commercial or partly-commercial resellers. www.au72.net reserves the right to exclude commercial resellers from the participation in the auctions and to close their user accounts at any time.
Each user may register only once using their mail address (registration using PO Boxes or equivalents is not permitted). Additionally, only one user registration per household is permitted.
During the registration process, the user must choose a username. The username must not be offensive, be selected to deceive or mis-inform other users, may not offend common decency or infringe upon the rights of third parties. If www.au72.net receives information of a username which is illegal or in breach of these Terms, this username can be amended by www.au72.net without prior notice. The corresponding user password is to be kept secret by the user. User accounts created during registration are non-transferable. The user account may be used only by the user and not by anyone else. Any abuse of the user account, be it to the detriment of third parties or to the detriment of www.au72.net, shall result in the disqualification of the user and the reporting of a crime. In general, the user shall be liable for all activities that are undertaken using the user account together with the associated password.
www.au72.net reserves the right to temporarily or permanently disqualify a user, or disable their account at any time, and at its sole discretion. Users will be disqualified when in the reasonable opinion of www.au72.net, a member has violated any laws or the rights of third parties. A user will be disqualified if such action will protect the rights of other users, or to prevent unauthorized manipulation or use of www.au72.net. Examples of such unauthorized usage include (but are not limited to) non-payment of bids, use of unauthorized third-party bidding software or set up of multiple user accounts by the same individual. In case of a breach of these Terms, www.au72.net reserves the right to withhold deliveries or refunds for tenders.
Furthermore, www.au72.net reserves the right to limit the number of auctions a user may participate in or the number of his successfully finished auctions at its sole discretion. Please refer to our separate acceptable use policy for additional information.

Bidding rights, so-called “tenders”, must be purchased and paid for by users prior to online bidding. Tenders can be purchased in packages (so-called “T-packs”) at the currently applicable prices, which can be viewed in “My views and totals” under “Buy my t-packs”.
Payment can be made by credit/debit card or via payment agents such as PayPal and Google Checkout.
Should a payment not be honored by a user, a returned payment fee will be charged. The user will be responsible for these fees. www.au72.net reserves the right to block access to the user’s account until payment in full of the invoice amount, including any fees due to returned payment etc., and to withhold any outstanding deliveries until payment is received in full.
Tenders and Voucher Tenders are valid for one year after they have been credited to a user’s account.
Free Tenders are only valid for the time stated in the promotion, in general only 7 days. Upon expiration, they become void and can no longer be placed. Once a Tender is placed in an auction, it is deducted from the user’s tender account and can no longer be refunded. Refunds will not be issued for Tenders placed in an auction, expired Tenders, Voucher Tenders and Free Tenders. For further information on refunds please see our Refund Policy.

Users can bid in two ways online. Tenders can be placed by clicking on the relevant bid buttons, or can be placed automatically by T-matics.
The T-matics assists bidders in being able to bid on an auction even if they are not online at that time. The T-matics automatically submits bids according to the specifications set in advance by the user. The user can read about how the T-matics operates in the “Help center”. The user is prohibited from using bidding software not authorized by www.au72.net, and doing so will result in immediate disqualification from use (see clause 2: Eligibility and the Acceptable Use Policy).

With each bid placed the price of the item on which the user is bidding increases by the amount specified. A bid submitted by the user constitutes willingness of a user to enter into a binding contract with www.au72.net and in the event of a successful finishing of an auction, the claim to receive a purchase offer for the item of the auction under the conditions set out in the related auction. A contract to purchase the item does not come into effect until the auction is finished and the last bidder has followed all the steps as set forth in clause number 6.

Each new bid resets the ‘remaining time’ for an auction up to, but not above, the displayed countdown reset value (usually, 10, 15 or 20 seconds). The one exception to this rule is when two T-maticss bid against one another. For more information, please consult with the “Help center”. The auction ends when the remaining time reaches zero. The user who was the last to bid then wins the auction. All other bids placed on the item expire and will not be credited back to the user's account or be eligible for a refund. The last bidder is determined based on the records in www.au72.net database and www.au72.net decision regarding who is the last bidder shall be final (save in the case of manifest error).

After an auction has ended, the last bidder (“winner”) must go to “My views and totals” under “My unpaid auctions”. Here, information such as total price (including delivery cost) and payment options will be displayed. The user must actively pay the total price (end price plus delivery cost) for the win by following the steps indicated on that page or elsewhere on the website. Once the winner has paid the win is accepted. If an auction win has not been paid within 21 days of the auction end date, www.au72.net reserves the right to withdraw the offer to conclude a contract and the winner’s right to pay for and receive delivery of an item will be permanently revoked. All bids placed in that auction expire and are non-refundable. The user must pay the total price to confirm the win. After paying the amount due, the winner will receive a confirmation email.
The item will not be sent to the user until the total price has been paid to www.au72.net. A similar requirement for delivery is that all bids purchased and used by the user have been properly paid for. Should bids that have already been purchased and used not have been paid for, payments received shall be viewed as payment toward the bids not yet paid for, and we reserve the right to retain the item purchased at auction until all bids and the total price have been paid for in full. www.au72.net reserves the right to charge the winner reasonable storage charges for items not paid for.
An invoice containing the auction price and shipping costs will be sent to the user by www.au72.net once delivery has been arranged.

www.au72.net grants winners the right to cancel an order. This right is unconditional and begins from the moment the contract is concluded. If a user cancels a contract to which the cancellation provisions apply they are entitled to a refund of the auction end price they have paid in relation to the contract even if the goods are not defective in any way. Tenders placed on the auction are not eligible for a refund. These cancellation rights end fourteen days after the day on which a winner received the goods or a notification that the goods are ready for collection.
An exception to the right to cancel is audio or video recordings or computer software that the customer has unsealed. These items are not eligible for return nor refund.

If a user wishes to cancel the contract, they must inform www.au72.net in writing (by letter or email), that they want to cancel within the time period noted above. Cancellations by phone will not be accepted.

One of the following contact details must be used:

Address: www.au72.net, compnew@au72.biz, Fujera, VA (Adress coming soon)
Email: compnew[@]au72.biz[.]com
Phone: (000)123-456 (between 0am - 0pm PDT)

In order to complete a valid cancellation or return, a user must return the received product or products in good condition, such as might be expected from typical testing in a retail store. Costs of postage for returns will be paid by the user (unless goods are found to be faulty). If the user is unable to return the service or product received or only able to return it in part or only in a depreciated condition, he will have to pay compensation to us [the amount refundable will be reduced proportionally], as applicable. Cancellations by phone will not be accepted and our help center reps are heavily instructed to hang up as soon as anyone attempts to cancel their contract by phone. No exceptions!

Should www.au72.net incur additional costs for insufficient postage on the return or for courier shipments and other irregular shipping methods that are over and above postal shipping costs, these costs will be deducted from any payment whatsoever remitted by the customer. Sets/boxes can only be returned in their entirety.

Unless otherwise stated, delivery will be made directly from our suppliers or from our warehouse to the address provided by the user. Deliveries are made solely within the 50 states of the United States (explicitly excluding the U.S. sovereign territories of Guam, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands). Some restrictions or higher shipping costs may apply if the delivery address is in Alaska or Hawaii, please check notifications on the detail pages of the auctions in advance. Delivery times vary and any delivery time indicated is provided only as a guide and is not guaranteed. www.au72.net shall be entitled to involve third parties to satisfy its contractual obligations without being required to notify the buyer. Obvious damage to the item from transport or packaging damaged during transport is to be reported to www.au72.net upon taking delivery.
Should www.au72.net not be able to deliver the item ordered, www.au72.net shall be entitled to substitute the item with a comparable replacement product with the same or better features, or provide a refund of the auction end price to the user based upon the user’s preference.

The user shall only have the right to offset if his or her counterclaims are not disputed by www.au72.net.
The user is not entitled by reason of any alleged minor defect to withhold more than a proportionate amount of the sum due.
The item delivered shall remain www.au72.net property until payment is received in full of the total price, including for the tenders used in the auction. Until such time as payment has been made in full the user undertakes to store the item separately from their other possessions and to insure it.

A system outage has occurred if no bids can be submitted for items due to an unforeseeable disruption in a system. In such a case, auctions will be temporarily halted and the remaining times for the auctions, the current bidding price and the current highest bidder will be maintained. After the disruption has been resolved, the auctions will be continued and 10 minutes will be added to the remaining times for the auctions. Temporarily halted auctions are clearly indicated. Bids placed on a temporarily halted auction shall not be credited back on a user’s account and are not eligible for a refund for bids used or other costs incurred.
