5. Deluxe Miami IS AN ONLINE VENUE
A. Status. Deluxe Miami is not an Auctioneer. We are commonly referred to as an online auction web site, but it is important to understand that we are not a traditional "auctioneer". WE DO NOT OPERATE in the manner or mode of EBAY or similar online auction web sites. We are merely a venue that allows people to make bid offers, on currently running automobile Insurance auctions, before our in- house specified offer submission deadline expires. Upon expiration of the designated offer submission deadline, the individual who made the highest offer through our Site is then notified by Deluxe Miami, whereupon the individual guarantees the offer with the Security Deposit on account with Deluxe Miami in the amount of $500.00 or by Ten Percent (10%) of your bid price, whichever is the greater, within twenty four (24) hours. Deluxe Miami deals with multiple insurance companies and auction houses which have different terms and requirements. Please keep in mind that placing bids on certain vehicles may require a $1000 or thirty three percent (33%) of offer, whichever is greater ("Security Deposit"). You may be required to increase your Security Deposit before any independent auction begins based on your bid. Since all insurance auctions are closed to the general public and only licensed auto salvage representatives can bid at these auctions, Deluxe Miami will present your bid offer at the insurance auction on your behalf. Please note that although you may have the highest bid offer on the Deluxe Miami Site, your bid offer may be exceeded at the insurance auction by other eligible bidders and thereby you will not acquire the vehicle.
By opting for this business model, Deluxe Miami can and does allow people to offer to buy just about any type of auto regardless of geographic area, in a variety of pricing formats, including a fixed price format and an auction-style format most commonly referred to as "online auctions" or "auctions." Unlike traditional auction houses, we are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers. Because of our special relationships in the industry, there is no warranty or guarantee that a buyer’s final bid will be the same amount as the winning auction bid in any auction. In order to obtain the best market prices, we are often required to pay administrative fees, broker fees, bulk sales fees, and agent costs in addition to the winning bid amount. Buyers will never pay more than their approved maximum bid together with auction fees and other related service fees. (See Fee and Refund Policy)
B. Control of products offered. As a result of our status as a venue, we have no control over the quality, condition, safety or legality of the items advertised on the Deluxe Miami Site; the truth or accuracy of the listings; the ability of sellers to sell items; or the ability of buyers to pay for items. All items are sold and purchased on an “AS IS” basis without express or implied warranties of any kind of nature. We cannot guarantee that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction. By Agreeing, to use Deluxe Miami the following Terms and Policy are in effect. You are also agreeing that in the event and Insurance Company and or Auction, sell a particular vehicle that was committed to Deluxe Miami and its Affiliates, that if resold by Insurance Auction, to another Auction, Broker or another affiliate, you are agreeing to take a comparable vehicle that fits the same criteria, or at least work with the Deluxe Miami Team to locate another vehicle within a 60 to 90 day period. In the event that you have decided, after the 90 day period has elapsed and you no longer wish to look for a vehicle with Deluxe Miami, you will need to request a refund in writing. In the event that I elect the Early Termination Fee option, and after a standard Election Form is executed, a thirty (30) percent early termination fee shall apply and will be deducted from my account and the remaining balance in my account will be refunded to me, within fifteen (15) days from signing the Election Form. The Parties agree that the Early Termination Fee represents reasonable compensation to The Company for administrative, legal, and other costs incurred and to be incurred from the waiver of the 90-day comparable vehicle acceptance requirement at my request. I agree to these terms.
C. Fixed Price Marketplace. Deluxe Miami maintains a separate area of the Site which offers you the ability to purchase restored autos at a fixed price. Specific terms and conditions may apply to your use of this fixed price area.
D. Identity Verification. We frequently verify the accuracy of the information our users provide us when they register on the Site. However, due to the expense and difficulty of verifying this information, Deluxe Miami cannot and does not confirm each user's purported identity.
E. Release. Because we are a venue and not an auctioneer, in the event that you have a dispute with one or more third parties, you hereby release Deluxe Miami (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, partners, joint ventures 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.
F. Information Control. We have no control over the information provided by third parties and made available through our system. As a result, you may find such third party information from other users to be inaccurate. Furthermore, with respect to third party representations concerning documentation such as Department of Motor Vehicle titles, registrations, VIN numbers or dealer ‘certifications’ or ‘warranties’, Deluxe Miami does not guarantee the accuracy or availability of third party documentation. By actively navigating this Site, you agree to accept such risks and Deluxe Miami is not responsible for the acts or omissions of users on the Site. Items contained in pictures provided by Sellers, such as keys and handbooks, are not guaranteed to be contained in any delivered vehicles as Deluxe Miami is never in possession of any vehicles and auctioneers and shipping companies act independently of Deluxe Miami...
6. OFFERS, BIDDING AND BUYING
A. Obligations. As a buyer, you are obligated to complete all transactions with all sellers:
1. if you purchase an item through one of our fixed price formats; or 2. if you are the highest bidder at the end of an auction (meeting the applicable minimum bid or reserve requirements) and your offer is accepted by the seller at the insurance auction.
B. Bid Offer. By entering a bid offer on an item, you agree to be bound by the conditions of sale included in the item's description unless these conditions of sale are in violation of this Agreement or unlawful. In the event that you are the highest bid offer at our in-house auction processes and do not remit your mandatory Security Deposit and processing fee as outlined in the Fees and Refund Policy and within the time frame set forth therein, Deluxe Miami has the unilateral and absolute right to cancel your offer bid and pursue you for collection of the defaulted Security Deposit, processing fees, related legal costs and fees associated with the collection, in addition to any other legal remedies Deluxe Miami may elect to exercise. Additional fees may be assessed to cover costs and administrative expenses associated with your default.
Offers are final and not retractable except in exceptional circumstances, such as:
when the seller materially changes the item's description after you place your offer; or a clear typographical error is made; or when the seller does not confirm your purchase in the fixed-price area of our services.
C. Fraud. Without limiting any other remedies, Deluxe Miami reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account, without notice to you, if we suspect that you (by conviction, settlement, insurance or escrow investigation, or otherwise) have engaged in fraudulent activity in connection with the Site.
