Bonanza User Agreement

Updated November, 2023

By using the bonanza.com web site (the "Website") or establishing an account with Bonanza and using the Bonanza service (the "Service"), you agree to the following terms and conditions (the "Bonanza User Agreement").

I. Overview

Importantly, although Bonanza is commonly referred to as an online marketplace, it is not a traditional "retailer." Instead, Bonanza acts as a venue to match buyers and sellers. Bonanza is not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers and does not transfer legal ownership of items from the sellers to buyers. As a result, Bonanza has no control over the items advertised, or the ability of sellers to sell items or the ability of buyers to pay for items.

Definitions
"Your Information" is defined as any information you provide to Bonanza or other users in the registration, in the listing process (which includes photographs and descriptions), in any public message area (including the Forums or the feedback area) or through any email feature. You are solely responsible for Your Information, and Bonanza acts as a passive conduit for your online distribution and publication of Your Information.
"Your Activities" include, for example, listing items, posting comments in any public message area (including the Forums or the feedback area), and email.

Dispute Resolution
Bonanza's goal is to make you happy. In the event a dispute arises between you and Bonanza, please email Bonanza at [email protected] and we will work quickly towards a solution. We encourage you to report all user-to-user disputes to your local law enforcement, postmaster general, or a certified mediation or arbitration entity.

II. Membership Eligibility

Bonanza's services are available only to individuals who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Bonanza's services are not available to children (persons under the age of 18) or to temporarily or indefinitely suspended Bonanza members. If you are a under the age of 18, you can use this service only in conjunction with, and under the supervision of your parents or guardians. If you do not qualify, please do not use Bonanza.

III. Purchasing/Buyer Obligations and Guidelines

A buyer is obligated to complete the transaction of a purchase of an item on Bonanza in any shop within three (3) days. A buyer is obligated to immediately pay in full if using PayPal or Amazon Pay by clicking the payment button during checkout.

A seller must abide by all of Bonanza's policies and the seller's own individual shop policies and sell the item as described. Likewise, a seller must abide by the seller's own individual policies when dealing other issues, for example, issues of damage and returns.

Buyers remorse is not a valid reason for requesting a refund from a seller. Prior to making a purchase, buyers should review all sellers policies regarding refunds, returns, and seller policies.

IV. Listing/Seller Obligations and Guidelines

Bonanza's Fees and Credit Policy
Changes to the Fees and Credits Policy and the fees for our services are effective after Bonanza provides you with at least fourteen (14) days' notice of the changes by posting the changes on Bonanza. However, Bonanza may choose to temporarily change Bonanza's Fees and Credits Policy and the fees for Bonanza's services for promotional events (for example, free listing days) and such changes are effective when Bonanza posts the temporary promotional event on Bonanza. Bonanza may, at Bonanza's sole discretion, change some or all of Bonanza's services at any time. In the event Bonanza introduces a new service, the fees for that service are effective at the launch of the service. Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars (USD).

Unless granted an exception by Bonanza, Bonanza requires all seller accounts to provide a credit or debit card for the purposes of verification of their identity, and for payment of fees and services rendered.

You are responsible for paying all fees associated with using Bonanza's service and Bonanza and all applicable taxes. If a seller owes more than $3.00 USD in fees at the beginning of the month, they are emailed an invoice detailing the amount due. Payment for the amount due must be made in full within 30 days of the date on the invoice.

Fees for our services will be described once they are determined.

Listing Description and Images: You must be legally able to sell the item(s) you list for sale on the Site. You must describe your item and all terms of sale on the listing page of the Site. Your listings may only include text descriptions, graphics, pictures and other content relevant to the sale of that item. All listed items must be listed in an appropriate category. Each listing must accurately and completely describe the item/items for sale in that listing. If the "in stock" quantity is more than one, all items in that listing must be identical. Each unique item must have its own listing. Listings may not contain outbound links that direct users off of Bonanza. A listing's main image must accurately represent the actual product that is for sale and must not infringe upon any third party's intellectual property rights.
Binding Sale: All sales are binding. If you, as a seller, receive a purchase request (order) you are obligated to complete the transaction with the buyer in a prompt manner, 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.
Termination: Without limiting any other remedies, Bonanza, without notice, may suspend or terminate your account if Bonanza suspects, in its sole discretion, that you (by information, investigation, conviction, settlement, insurance or escrow investigation, or otherwise) have violated any of Bonanza's policies set out in this Agreement, the Privacy Policy, or any other policy documents or community guidelines, or you have engaged in an improper or fraudulent activity in connection with Bonanza. If Bonanza terminates a listing or your account, if you close your account, or if the payment of your seller fees cannot be completed for any reason, you remain obligated to pay Bonanza for all unpaid fees plus any penalties, if applicable. If the seller's account is not paid in full and becomes past due, Bonanza reserves the right to attempt to collect past due fees by charging the seller's card on file. The seller risks additional penalties such as the suspension of privileges and/or termination of the account and other collection mechanisms (including retaining collection agencies and legal counsel). If you have a question or wish to dispute a charge, contact Bonanza support.
Manipulation: The price stated in each Bonanza Item Description must be an accurate representation of the sale. Manipulation refers to activities whereby the price no longer accurately represents the monetary value of the transaction. For example manipulative activities include, but are not limited to, intentionally stating one price in the Item Description but charging a higher price to the buyer, altering the item's price prior to a sale for the purpose of avoiding Bonanza transaction fees, and hacking into another's account and altering prices. Neither buyer nor seller, may manipulate the price of any item for any reason.

Sellers have up to 180 days from the date of the transaction to request refunds on the final value fees. Final value fee refund requests on transactions outside of 180 days will not be honored.

Shipping and fulfillment:
Sellers are responsible for fulfilling orders placed through the Bonanza platform within the handling time stated in their settings. Sellers agree to adhere to Bonanza’s policy documents or community guidelines surrounding shipping requirements.

V. Usage Guidelines

Third Party Content; Identity Verification: You understand that the Bonanza, including Bonanza booth chat, acts only as a marketing platform and technical interface between users and that Bonanza does not itself verify the qualifications of users, nor does it evaluate or control in any ongoing manner exchanges between users. Any opinions or statements expressed by a user are of those of the user alone, and are not to be attributed to Bonanza. Bonanza cannot and does not assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, safety, reliability, timeliness, innocuousness, legality or applicability of anything said, written, posted, displayed or otherwise made available by any user.

By using Bonanza, you agree to accept such risks and that Bonanza (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees) is not responsible for any and all acts or omissions of users on Bonanza
Bonanza uses many techniques to verify the accuracy of the information Bonanza's users provide to Bonanza when they register on Bonanza. However, because user verification on the Internet is difficult, Bonanza cannot and does not confirm each user's purported identity. Thus, Bonanza has established a user-initiated feedback system to help you evaluate with whom you are dealing. Bonanza also encourages you to communicate directly with potential transaction partners through the tools available on Bonanza. You may also wish to consider using a third party escrow service or services that provide additional user verification.

Access and Interference: Bonanza may contain robot exclusion headers. Much of the information on Bonanza is updated on a real time basis and is proprietary or is licensed to Bonanza by Bonanza's users or third parties.

Feedback Integrity; Feedback Export: You may not take any actions that may undermine the integrity of the feedback system. Bonanza may, without prior notice, limit the number of purchases and listings, which you may place on Bonanza based upon the level of your feedback. If you earn a low percentage feedback rating, your account will automatically be flagged for staff review, at which time your membership may be fully or partially suspended, and you may be unable to list or buy.
You acknowledge that your feedback consists of comments left by other users and a composite feedback number compiled by Bonanza. Further, you acknowledge that the composite number, without the feedback comments, does not convey your full user reputation. Because feedback ratings are not designed for any purpose other than for facilitating transactions between Bonanza users, you agree that you shall not market or export your Bonanza feedback rating in any venue other than a Bonanza operated website.
