The Concept
- For each particular playersonly.net Auction playersonly.net will determine the following:
- The product /service for sale by auction.
- The Closing Date of the auction.
- The Processing Charge per Bid.
- The Bid Increment.
- If applicable, playersonly.net may specify the following:
- A Bid Limit for a particular playersonly.net auction; and
- The Quantity Available.
- A given playersonly.net Auction will close and a Successful Bidder will be selected as per clause (4) of this agreement under any one of the following circumstances:
- On the Closing Date of the auction where playersonly.net chooses not to extend the Closing Date.
- At a date before the Closing Date at playersonly.net discretion.
- Should the Closing Date of the auction arrive and the Required Number of Bids has not been reached then playersonly.net reserves the right to extend the Closing Date for additional periods of up 30 days by determining a new Closing Date(s).
- At the Closing Date, the Successful Bidder will be determined as per clause (4) of this agreement. playersonly.net may at its discretion and at any time following the close of the auction, place other identical or similar products /services in a different playersonly.net Auction. No Bids placed in any individual playersonly.net Auction will count as Bids in any other playersonly.net Auction. In addition the auction variables (Processing Charge etc.) may differ between individual playersonly.net Auctions, even though the product or service that is being auctioned is either identical or similar.
- The retail price or market value of the product /service on offer may be stated as part of the description of the product service on playersonly.net Auction. While playersonly.net will endeavour to ensure that this information is as accurate as possible, playersonly.net does not warrant that this information is correct or that the product /service is not available at a lower price.
- playersonly.net is the sole determinant of the answers to the Qualifying Question/s and its decision shall be final and binding on the Bidders.
Making a Bid
- The success of such a concept relies on fair and honest participation by Bidders. A Bidder must not in any circumstances disclose details of their Bid to any other person before the Closing Date. In particular, a Bidder must not collude or enter into any arrangement of any sort with any other Bidder(s).
- In order to make a Bid, a Bidder must be aged 18 or over and entry of a Bid is on the basis that you are aged 18 or over.
- A Bid is only considered accepted once payment of the Processing Charge(s) has been physically recorded as a received payment in the playersonly.net system.
- playersonly.net reserves the right to cancel any Bid without making a refund of the applicable Processing Charges under any one or more of the following circumstances:
- The Bidder provides any false, misleading or invalid information of any kind when registering or placing a bid.
- A fraudulent credit card is used to purchase Credits to pay for the relevant Processing Charge(s).
- The bank or other credit institution reverses the credit card transaction for any purchase.
- A Bidder co-operates in any way with another Bidder when placing a Bid.
- Any other breach of this agreement.
- The Bidder exceeds or attempts to exceed their Bid Limit for a particular playersonly.net Auction
- playersonly.net reserves the right to cancel any Bid and offer a refund of the applicable processing Charges in V-chips to the Bidder's playersonly.net Account under any one or more of the following circumstances:
- If the Required Number of Bids (applicable for each item in the case of multiple item auctions) has not been reached (whether the Closing Date of the auction has arrived or not)
- playersonly.net reserves the right to offer a different item to the one advertised to an equivalent value of the amount bids received on a particular auction in the following event:
- A playersonly.net auction fails to receive the minimum required bids before the end date of an auction or before the extended end date of an auction.
- If multiple Items are available for a particular playersonly.net Auction, then each bid will be allocated to one of the Items automatically by playersonly.net (all bids placed in the same instance will be allocated to the same Item).
- playersonly.net shall not be liable for any causes preventing the receipt of bids for any reason, including but not limited to an overload of the telephone service centre, failure of the hardware or software providing access to the Internet or any other technical difficulties whatsoever.
Determination of the Successful Bidder
- The Bidder that places the lowest Unique Bid is determined the Successful Bidder for that particular playersonly.net Auction Item thereby having the right to purchase the particular product /service for the amount of the Lowest Unique Bid.
- Should there be no successful Lowest Unique Bid then the Successful Bidder will be selected from the lowest Bid with exactly two Bids with the Bidder who answered all the Qualifying Question/s (if qualifying question/s have been asked for that particular product) correctly and Bid first at that Bid being selected. Should there be no Bid with exactly two Bids where either Bidder answered all the Qualifying Questions correctly (again if qualifying questions have been asked), then the process is repeated for the lowest Bid with exactly three Bids and so on until there is a Successful Bidder.
- Should the Successful Bidder fail to pay for the product /service within 30 days of the Closing Date then the right to purchase the product service at the Successful Unique Bid will be forfeited.
- There may be a period of up to 72 working hours from the Closing Date until the auction results are announced. This period is to allow for the reconciliation of Bids and the auditing of results.
Payment of the Processing Charge
- The Bidder warrants that he/she is the owner of the credit/debit card and is authorised to make use of it for the purposes purchasing Credits for participating in playersonly.net Auctions.
- playersonly.net uses one or more third-party payment service providers for the acceptance of payments for playersonly.net Auctions.
