2. Pensacola Community Auction's serves only as a Venue
*******************************************
Pensacola Community Auction's is an Internet site on which registered users post ads offering merchandise which they possess and wish to sell in an open auction environment. Registered users may also bid on or buy such merchandise. At no time does Pensacola Community Auction's possess, hold, or offer any merchandise for sale or auction, nor are we involved in any part of the actual transaction. Pensacola Community Auction's serves only as a venue in which individual sellers and buyers may engage in transactions between each other. Because of our non-involvement in these transactions, it is the sole responsibility of the seller to accurately represent the quantity, quality, safety, authenticity, and availability of the items the seller has listed on the site. Furthermore, it is the responsibility of the bidder/buyer to verify with the seller any or all information about any item listed on Pensacola Community Auction's, for which they intend on placing a bid, before placing such bid. Pensacola Community Auction's can not be responsible for a sellers willingness or ability to sell any item they have listed, or a Bidders willingness to follow through with a transaction for an item(s) for which they have placed a bid. We encourage open communication between buyers and sellers before and after any transaction takes place.

3. User Verification
*******************************************
Because of difficulties involved with verification over the Internet, Pensacola Community Auction's is unable to guarantee that a user is who they may claim to be. If you are uncertain as to another users identity, we suggest that you contact them. You may also review any members feedback profile to see what others have said about dealing with them.

4. Disputes and Release
*******************************************
Because Pensacola Community Auction's has no involvement in transactions between users we can not get involved in disputes between users. You hereby release Pensacola Community Auction's (including all officers, employees, parent companies, contractors, suppliers, or agents) from any and all types of damages or claims resulting from such disputes.

*******************************************
Review the listing policy for more information

6. Placing Bids
*******************************************
By placing a bid on an item(s) listed on Pensacola Community Auction's, you are stating that you have the ability and intention to purchase the item for the amount of your bid, should the auction end and you are the high bidder. In the case of a reserve auction, if your bid meets or exceeds the sellers stated reserve price, you agree to purchase the item(s) for the amount of your winning bid.

Before placing a bid in an auction, you should be certain you understand all terms and conditions of the sale as indicated by the seller. Placing a bid is considered a legal, binding contract in most states. If you have any questions about an item, or the seller offering the item, you should ask the seller before placing your bid.

Only in certain situations would bid withdrawal be acceptable. These situations may include:

a) The seller has made material changes to the description of the item after your bid was placed.
b) The seller has made a typographical error in the description of the item.
c) You have contacted the seller and received their express permission to withdraw your bid.

Bidders may not engage in the following activity:

a) Bidding in a manner that causes the maximum bid of other bidders to be revealed, then retract your high bid, and bid again at a lower increment above the true high bidder.
b) Placing bids for the purpose of exposing the sellers reserve price, then retract your bid and bid again later with a secondary User ID.
c) Bidding on any item that you do not have the intention or means to purchase at the close of the auction, should your high bid cause you to win the auction. You are encouraged to ask the seller of an item listed on Pensacola Community Auction's, any questions you may have regarding the sale of, or condition of the item before placing your bid.
d) By placing a bid, you further state that the purchase and or delivery of the item does not violate any local, state or federal laws, regulations or guidelines regarding the sale or distribution of such item(s).

After bidding you should periodical refresh your page to see the current sale price and high bidder status. You will be sent an email confirming you have placed a bid and letting you know when you have been outbid.

7. Fees and Charges
*******************************************
The listing fee for posting an item on Pensacola Community Auction's is 100% FREE. There is however, a minimal charge for other auction posting features such as featured item listings, attention grabbers, bold listings, etc., should you wish to use them. There will also be a final value fee imposed on all items sold (please see the "Auction Fees" page). This amount will be automatically debited to your account and you will be sent an invoice monthly via email showing your account status. A negative balance indicates money owed on your account. A positive balance indicates credit available to you for posting items for auction and our other services. We will extend a floating credit to you up to $100.00, at which time we will send you an invoice via email requesting payment. Should this payment not be made, your account will be suspended until payment is received, and posted to your account. Payments can be made through PayPal, directly from your "Account Manager", which is our preferred method, or if you so desire, you can send a check or money order to the address listed in your "Account Manager". Please realize however, that this method of payment may delay your being able to continue posting auctions until your payment is received, processed, and posted to your account.

A great way to pay off your seller's bill is by utilizing our "Affiliate and Registration Credit" programs. Any credits you receive through this programs will be immediately deducted from your account balance, however, these credits have a ZERO cash value, and cannot be refunded as cash. You may also wish to make a payment ABOVE your amount owed, which you may do at any time, and the amount will show up as a "positive" amount in your account
