3._________ is Only a Venue.
3.1 Overview.Our site acts as the venue for sellers to list items (or, as appropriate, solicit of fers 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 buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction.
3.2 Safe Trading. Because user authentication on the Internet is difficult,_________ 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. See our Buying and Selling Tools page (at _________).
3.3 Release. Because we are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers, in the event that you have a dispute with one or more users, you release _________ (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? 542, 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."
3.4 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 are also risks of dealing with foreign nationals, underage persons or people acting under false pretense.
