 User Agreement 
 

User Agreement
The text below is our user site agreement. These are the terms and conditions required for access to our site. Please read completely before deciding to agree or disagree with these terms.


Welcome to dollcollectors's User Agreement. This Agreement describes the terms and conditions
applicable to your use of our services.  This Agreement may be amended at any time by posting the 
amended terms on our site.  All amended terms shall be effective 30 days after they 
are initially posted on our site.  This agreement was last revised on December 31, 2001. 
1.  Membership Eligibility.
     Our services are available only to individuals who can form legally binding contracts under
     applicable law. Our services are not available to minors. If you do not qualify, please do not 
     use our services. 
2.  Fees and Services.
     Joining and bidding on items at dollcollectors is free. Our Fees and Credits Policy is available
     to view online. We may change our Fees and Credits Policy and the fees for our services from time 
     to time. Our changes to the policy are effective after we provide you with at least fourteen (14) 
     days' notice of the changes by posting the changes on our website. However, we may choose to 
     temporarily change our Fees and Credits Policy and the fees for our services for promotional events. 
     With the exception of automobiles, motorcycles, boats, and real estate, it is free to list an item for sale.
     You only pay a percentage when your item sells. If it does not sell, you may relist it at no charge. 
3.  dollcollectors is Only a Venue. 
     Overview. Our site acts as the venue for sellers to list items (or, as appropriate, solicit
     offers to buy) and buyers to bid on items. We are not involved in the actual transaction between
     buyers and sellers. As a result, we have no control over the quality, safety or legality of the
     items advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings, the ability of sellers to sell items or the
     ability of buyers to buy items. We cannot ensure that a seller or buyer will actually complete a
     transaction. 
     Because user authentication on the Internet is difficult, dollcollectors cannot and
     does not confirm each user's purported identity. Thus, we have established a user-initiated
     feedback system to help you evaluate with whom you are dealing. We also encourage you to
     communicate directly with potential trading partners. You may also wish to consider using a
     third party escrow service or services that provide additional user verification. 
     Release. Because we are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and
     sellers, in the event you have a dispute with one or more users, you release dollcollectors
     (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries and employees) from claims, demands and
     damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected
     and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such
     disputes. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which says:
     "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to
     exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have
     materially affected his settlement with the debtor." 
     Information Control. We do not control the information provided by other users which is
     made available through our system. You may find other user's information to be offensive,
     harmful, inaccurate, or deceptive. Please use caution, common sense, and practice safe trading
     when using our site. Please note that there may be  risks of dealing with foreign nationals,
     underage persons or people acting under false pretense.
4.  Bidding and Buying.
     If you are the highest bidder at the end of an auction (meeting the applicable minimum bid or
     reserve requirements) and your bid is accepted by the seller, you are obligated to complete the
     transaction with the seller, unless the transaction is prohibited by law or this agreement.
     By bidding on an item you agree to be bound by the conditions of sale included in the item's 
     description (or linked to from the description) so long as those conditions of sale are not in 
     violation of this Agreement or unlawful. Bids are not retractable except in exceptional 
     circumstances such as when the seller materially changes the item's description after you bid, 
     a clear typographical error is made, or you cannot authenticate the seller's identity. If you 
     choose to bid on adult items, you are certifying that you have the legal right to purchase such 
     items.
5.  Listing and Selling.
     Listing Description. Listings may only include text descriptions, graphics and pictures you
     supply to our site (or that you link to from our site) that describe your item for sale (or as
     appropriate, for which are soliciting offers to buy). All listed items must be listed in an
     appropriate category. All Dutch auction items must be identical (the size, color, make, and
     model all must be the same for each item). You may not promote identical items in more than
     three (3) listings (whether Dutch or Regular auction style) on our site at any one time. 
     Binding Bids. Except for items listed in a category under the Non-binding Bid Policy, if
     you receive at least one bid at or above your stated minimum price (or in the case of reserve
     auctions, at or above the reserve price), you are obligated to complete the transaction with the
     highest bidder upon the auction's completion, unless there is an exceptional circumstance, such
     as: (a) the buyer fails to meet the terms of your listing (such as payment method), or (b) you
     cannot authenticate the buyer's identity. 
     Fraud. Without limiting any other remedies, dollcollectors may suspend or terminate your 
     account  if you are found (by conviction, settlement, insurance or escrow investigation, or otherwise)
     to  have engaged in fraudulent activity in connection with our site. 
     You may not list any item on our site (or consummate any transaction that was initiated using our  
     service) that, by paying to us the listing fee or the final value fee, could cause us to violate any  
     applicable law, statute, ordinance or regulation, or that violates our current Prohibited, 
     Questionable and Infringing Items list.   
     Manipulation. Neither bidders nor sellers may manipulate the price of any item nor may
     you interfere with other user's listings or auctions.
6.  Your Information.
     "Your Information" is defined as any information you provide to us or other users in the
     registration, bidding or listing process, in any public message area (including the 
     feedback area) or through any email feature. You are solely responsible for Your Information,
     and we act as a passive conduit for your online distribution and publication of Your Information.
     Regarding Your Information: 
     Your Information (or any items listed therein): (a) shall not be false, misleading or inaccurate;
     (b) shall not be fraudulent or involve the sale of counterfeit or stolen items; (c) shall
     not infringe on any third party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary
     rights or rights of publicity or privacy; (d) shall not violate any law, statute, ordinance or
     regulation (including without limitation those governing export control, consumer protection,
     unfair competition, antidiscrimination or false advertising); (e) shall not be defamatory, trade
     libelous, unlawfully threatening or unlawfully harassing; (f) shall not be obscene or contain child
     pornography or, if otherwise adult in nature or harmful to minors, shall be posted only in the
     Adults Only section and shall be distributed only to people legally permitted to receive such
     content; (g) shall not contain any viruses, worms, Trojan horses, time bombs, cancelbots or
     other computer programming routines that are intended to damage, detrimentally interfere with,
     surreptitiously intercept or expropriate any system, data or personal information; (h) shall not
     create liability for us or cause us to lose (in whole or in part) the services of our ISPs or other
     suppliers; and (i) shall not link directly or indirectly to or include descriptions of goods or
     services that: (aa) are prohibited under this Agreement; (bb) are identical to other items you
     have up for auction but are priced lower than your item's reserve or minimum bid amount; (cc)
     are concurrently listed for auction on a web site other than dollcollectors's; or (dd) you do 
     not have a right to link to or include. 
     Solely to enable dollcollectors to use the information you supply us with, so that we are not 
     violating any rights you might have in that information, you agree to grant us a non-exclusive, 
     worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable, sub-licensable (through multiple tiers) right to 
     exercise the copyright and publicity rights (but no other rights) you have in Your Information, in 
     any media now known or not currently known, with respect to Your Information. dollcollectors 
     will only use Your Information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
7.  Access and Interference.
     Our web site contains robot exclusion headers and you agree that you will not use any robot,
     spider, other automatic device, or manual process to monitor or copy our web pages or the
     content contained herein without our prior expressed written permission. You agree that you
     will not use any device, software or routine to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper
     working of the dollcollectors site or any auction being conducted on our site. You agree that 
     you will not take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our
     infrastructure. Much of the information on our site is updated on a real time basis and is proprietary
     or is licensed to dollcollectors by our users or third parties. You agree that you will not
     copy, reproduce, alter, modify, create derivative works, or publicly display any content, except
     for Your Information  from our website without the prior expressed written permission of 
     dollcollectors or the appropriate third party.
8.  Feedback.
     You may not take any actions that may undermine the integrity of the feedback system. If you
     earn a net feedback rating of -3 (minus three), your membership will be automatically
     suspended, and you will be unable to list or bid. 
     Import. We do not provide the technical ability to allow you to import feedback from other
     websites to dollcollectors because a composite number, without the corresponding feedback 
     does not reflect your true online reputation within our community. 
     Export. You acknowledge that your feedback consists of comments left by other users
     and a composite feedback number compiled by dollcollectors, and that the composite number 
     without the comments does not convey your full user profile. Because feedback ratings are not
     designed for any purpose other than for facilitating trading between dollcollectors users, you 
     agree that you will not market or export your dollcollectors feedback rating in any venue other 
     than dollcollectors.
9.  Breach.
     Without limiting other remedies, we may immediately issue a warning, temporarily suspend,
     indefinitely suspend or terminate your membership and refuse to provide our services to you:
     (a) if you breach this Agreement or the documents it incorporates by reference; (b) if we are
     unable to verify or authenticate any information you provide to us; or (c) if we believe that your
     actions may cause legal liability for you, us or our users.
10. Privacy.
     Our policy on privacy is held to high standards.
11. No Warranty.
     WE AND OUR SUPPLIERS PROVIDE OUR WEB SITE AND SERVICES "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY 
     WARRANTY OR CONDITION, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY. WE AND OUR SUPPLIERS 
     SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, 
     FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. Some states do not allow the
     disclaimer of implied warranties, so the foregoing disclaimer may not apply to you. This warranty 
     gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other legal rights which vary
     from state to state. 
12. Liability Limit.
     IN NO EVENT SHALL WE OR OUR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR LOST PROFITS OR  ANY SPECIAL, 
     INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH OUR

     PAY TO US IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE ACTION GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, AND 
     (B) $100. Some states do not allow the limitation of liability, so the 
     foregoing limitation may not apply to you.
13. Indemnity.

     and employees, harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made

     employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this
     Agreement.

     Except as explicitly stated otherwise, any notices shall be given by postal mail to dollcollectors, 
     P.O. Box 4597, West Hills, CA  91308.  Alternatively, we may give you notice by certified mail, postage 
     prepaid and return receipt requested, to the address provided to dollcollectors during the 
     registration process. In such case, notice shall be deemed given 3 days after the date of mailing. 
17. Arbitration.

     any other party. The arbitration shall be conducted in Ventura, California, and judgment on the
     arbitration award may be entered into any court having jurisdiction thereof. Either you or 
     dollcollectors may seek any interim or preliminary relief from a court of competent jurisdiction
     in Ventura, California necessary to protect the rights or property of you or dollcollectors 
     pending the completion of arbitration. 
     If either party files an action contrary to this provision, the other party may recover up to $1,000 in 
     attorney fees and costs.
