The prices displayed on the Site are quoted in U.S. dollars and are valid and effective only within the United States, and such prices do not include shipping and handling charges or taxes. You are responsible for the payment of any shipping and handling charges and, if applicable to your purchase, any sales or use taxes.

(a) Products.  The condition of the Products made available by QVC for auction will vary, and the Products may consist of customer returns or items that may or may not have been previously sold. Accessories, such as remote controls, cables and instructions, may or may not be included. The various categories of conditions of the Products are described in the Conditions section of the Site, and each Listing will specify the condition(s) of the Products in such Listing.  Further, the actual quantity of Products provided to the winning bidder may vary by up to five percent (5%) from the quantity set forth in the Listing.

(b) Information.  To participate in any auction and/or purchase any Products at this Site, you must submit a valid and current state-issued resale certificate and such additional information as may be requested via the Site or by B-Stock or QVC.

Any additional formal invoice or proof of purchase outside of the original winning notification is not available. QVC is not responsible for the failure of an Email Notification to reach a winning bidder for any reason, including, without limitation, technical problems or other system error or for any errors in an Email Notification.

(d) Winning Bids.  If your bid is deemed the winning bid at the end of an auction for Products, you agree, within 48 hours of the time the Email Notification is sent, to remit payment to B-Stock for such Products pursuant to the terms and instructions set forth in the Email Notification and this Agreement and to provide such information as requested in the Email Notification. If you fail timely to do so, you will forfeit any right to purchase such Products, and QVC may, in its sole discretion, choose to (i) contact the next highest bidder in the auction for such Products and offer to sell such Products to such bidder at such bidder's bid price, or (ii) post such Products on the Site for sale in a new auction. In addition, QVC may restrict you from bidding in any further auctions at the Site. Penalties for your failure to complete the purchase of Products that are the subject of your winning bid are as set forth below.

In the event that you do not pay for any given winning bid, you may be given the chance to pay a cancelation fee, in order to prevent the deactivation of your account. The fee amounts are as follows, within any 12-month period:

You agree to pay such amounts by wire to the B-Stock account set forth in the wiring instructions included in the Email Notification, and under the payment terms set forth in the Email Notification, this Agreement and the Listings on the Site.  The instructions and other conditions set forth in the Email Notification that do not conflict with the terms of this Agreement will be deemed incorporated in this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement shall otherwise obligate QVC to sell Products to you.   You shall be responsible for all taxes, shipping costs and any other expenses incurred in connection with your purchase hereunder.

(b) Canceled Bids and Purchases.  Please note that there may be certain bids and purchases that QVC is unable to accept and must cancel. QVC reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to refuse or cancel any bid or purchase for any reason at any time. Some situations that may result in your bid or purchase being canceled include, without limitation, inaccuracies or errors in product or bid information or credit or fraud issues identified by QVC or B-Stock. In the event that bids for Products are incorrectly listed or Products are listed with incorrect information due to an error in quantity or other product information, QVC may, in its sole discretion, refuse or cancel any purchases placed for such Products. In the event that QVC cancels your bid or purchase, you will be notified by email of such cancellation.

For Products that are not being sent by Prepaid Freight, the Products purchased by you shall be made available for receipt and pick-up at the QVC facility identified in the Email Notification (the “Location”) only by a recognized third party carrier at a time mutually agreed to by you and QVC (the “Pickup Time”). You or your agent must schedule the Pickup Time by contacting QVC pursuant to the instructions set forth in the Notification Email. You shall be solely responsible for removal of the Products from QVC’s premises and for all shipping arrangements (including, without limitation, permits, costs and licenses) and expenses (including, but not limited to, insurance). Only the designated third party carrier may enter the Location for pick-up of the Products. You or your employees, equipment, and property, and that of your agents, enter and remain on QVC's premises entirely at your risk. While on QVC's premises, your employees and agents must observe all of QVC's rules and regulations. You shall have all Products removed by your third party carrier from the Location within three (3) business days of receiving notice from QVC that the Products are ready for pick-up. If you fail to have such Products removed within this time, QVC, in its sole discretion, may choose to keep such Products, list such Products for auction on the Site and refund to you the Purchase Price you paid to QVC less (i) a storage charge of $10 per pallet per each of the days QVC held the Products for you after you submitted the applicable payment and otherwise complied with the requirements in the Email Notification and (ii) a restocking fee of twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price.

(b) Title; Risk of Loss.  You expressly acknowledge that title, risk of loss and liability for the Products shall pass to you upon the earlier of delivery of the Products to the carrier appointed by you or QVC for shipment to you or your or your agent's receipt of the Products.

Pallets may be consolidated for shipping. You shall have five (5) business days from your receipt of the Products to inspect the shipment for any discrepancies in the stated quantity and report such discrepancy to QVC in writing.  QVC reserves the right to conduct an additional inspection at its own expense. If QVC agrees that an under-delivery of Product quantity has occurred in excess of the five percent (5%) threshold specified above, QVC will credit your account for any acknowledged under-delivery of Product quantity in excess of the five percent (5%) threshold. You expressly acknowledge and agree that you shall have no right to refuse or return the Products, even if there is a shortfall in the Product quantities in excess of the five percent (5%) threshold.  Following such five (5) business day inspection period, you shall no longer have the right to claim any reimbursement for under-delivery of Product quantity.  This section sets forth your sole and exclusive remedy for any shortfalls in the quantities of Products provided to you.
