Joining and setting up a shop on HorseBuff.com is free. HorseBuff.com does not charge fees to list an item for sale. HorseBuff.com does charge a percentage of the sale price when the item sells. When you list an item you have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. HorseBuff.com's Billing Policy, which is subject to change, is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. Changes to the Billing Policy and the fees for HorseBuff.com's services are effective immediately after posting the changes on the Site. HorseBuff.com may also choose to temporarily change the Billing Policy and the fees for HorseBuff.com's services for promotional events (for example, free listing days); such changes are effective when HorseBuff.com posts the temporary promotional event on the Site.

HorseBuff.com may, at HorseBuff.com's sole discretion, change some or all of HorseBuff.com's services at any time. In the event HorseBuff.com 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 US Dollars (USD). Fees will include final sale price of an item as well as shipping fees on an order. In certain situations, including but not limited to a void or invalid transaction and returns, HorseBuff.com may issue a credit for the applicable fees to a seller's billing statement. You are responsible for paying all fees, shipping fees based on accurate weights and measurements and applicable taxes associated with using HorseBuff.com. HorseBuff.com allows sellers to indicate applicable tax jurisdictions which will be collected from buyers through HorseBuff.com at point of sale. HorseBuff.com keeps accepted payment information on file. At the beginning of the month, each seller is emailed an invoice detailing the amount due. A seller must pay the amount due in full within 15 days of the date of the invoice.

Fees and Termination: If HorseBuff.com terminates a listing or your account, if you close your account, or if the payment of your HorseBuff.com fees cannot be completed for any reason, you remain obligated to pay HorseBuff.com for all unpaid fees plus any penalties, if applicable. If the seller's account is not paid in full and becomes past due, the seller risks penalties such as the suspension of privileges and/or termination of the account and other collection mechanisms (including retaining collection agencies and legal counsel). YOU HEREBY EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT HORSEBUFF.COM MAY CHARGE YOUR, PAYPAL ACCOUNT, CREDIT CARD, OR ANY OTHER METHOD OF PAYMENT, ON FILE FOR ANY AND ALL OUTSTANDING OR DELINQUENT FEES AND WAIVE ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AGAINST HORSEBUFF.COM FOR EXERCISING THIS RIGHT. If you have a question or wish to dispute a charge, contact HorseBuff.com.

4. Listings

(A) Listing Accuracy and Requirements: By listing an item on the Site you warrant that you and all aspects of the item comply with HorseBuff.com's published policies. You also warrant that you may legally sell the item. You must accurately describe your item and all terms of sale in your HorseBuff.com listing. Your listings may only include text descriptions, graphics, pictures and other content relevant to the sale of that item supplied by yourself. You may not use stock photography or content developed by third parties without their express written permission. Listings may not include links or reference to other selling venues, external listings, websites or selling channels. Any such additions will be removed from the listing by HorseBuff.com without notice. The inclusion of phone numbers or email addresses directly in listings, shop banners, or shop policies is prohibited. All items must be listed in an appropriate category with appropriate tags. 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. Any failure to accurately list your item, or the inclusion of any false information in the listing may be grounds for suspension or termination of your account. Any intentional misrepresentations or fraudulent statements in your listing is grounds for immediate termination of your account, at HorseBuff.com’s sole discretion, without any opportunity to cure.

(B) Shop Policies: All sellers are urged to outline shop policies for their HorseBuff.com shop. These policies may include, for example, shipping, returns, payment and selling policies. Sellers must create reasonable policies in good faith and must abide by such policies. All shop policies must comply with HorseBuff.com’s site-wide policies. Sellers are responsible for enforcing their own shop policies. HorseBuff.com reserves the right to request that a seller modify a shop policy.

(C) Binding Sale: All sales are binding. The seller is obligated to ship the order or otherwise 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 the seller's listing (such as payment method), or (b) the seller cannot authenticate the buyer's identity. The buyer is obligated to deliver appropriate payment for items purchased, unless there is an exceptional circumstance. By purchasing an item on HorseBuff.com, the buyer agrees to the specific return and other policies set forth by the individual seller. Both buyer and seller acknowledge and agree that transactions on the Site are between the buyer and seller. The Site exists as the platform for the transaction, but does not make HorseBuff.com a party to the transaction. Accordingly, HorseBuff.com retains the right to suspend or terminate a user's privileges for failing to consummate a transaction, but HorseBuff.com does not have a mechanism to force the completion of a sale.

(D) Fee Avoidance/Void Transactions: The price stated in each item listing description must be an accurate representation of the sale. Sellers may charge reasonable shipping and handling fees to cover the costs for packaging and mailing the items. Sellers may not charge excessive shipping fees. You may not misrepresent the item's location, or use another user's account without permission. No sales may be carried out via private message as a means to avoid HorseBuff.com's sales fee. Any other efforts to move sales initiated on HorseBuff.com off-site to avoid fees is strictly prohibited and may result in account suspension or termination. Any transaction initiated on the Site, but consummated off-site will not be subject to any of HorseBuff.com's policies or protections.

(E) Shipping Labels: Please note that when you purchase a shipping label on HorseBuff.com, for either domestic or international use, you are responsible for ensuring that all fields are filled out completely and accurately, including size, weight, description (if any) and declared value (if any). Any liability for a failure, or failures, to accurately or appropriately fill out the information will be transferred to you as the user. You also agree that you will not use a HorseBuff.com shipping label to send anything harmful or dangerous. You agree to indemnify and hold HorseBuff.com, its officers, directors, employees, and agents harmless for any claims or damages associated with any breach of this provision.
