change our Fees and Credits Policy and the fees for our services from time to
time. When you list an item you have an opportunity to review and accept the
fees that you will be charged for the use of our listing services. We may in

o2o is not an Auctioneer. It is important to realize that

venue to allow anyone to offer, sell, and buy just about anything, at anytime,
from anywhere. o2o offers an escrow service to protect both the buyer and
seller, however 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.
Identity Verification.
We use many techniques to identify our users when they
register on our site. However, because user verification on the Internet is
difficult, o2o cannot and does not confirm each user's purported identity.

potential trading partners through the tools available on our site.

Market Creations bills you through a secure payment
gateway. You agree to pay Market Creations all charges at the prices then in
effect for any Products ordered by you or other persons (including your agents)
using your Account, and you authorize Market Creations to charge your chosen
payment method (your "Payment Method") for such Products. You agree
to make payment using that selected Payment Method. Charges on your Account
will be summarized for you and sent by email to your nominated email address.
Market Creations reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it
makes even if it has already requested or received payment.
YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION
FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE PRODUCTS ORDERED. YOU MUST
PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE
AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR
CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY MARKET CREATIONS IF
YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME
AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR
USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE
THROUGH ‘MY MEMBERS PAGE’. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE MARKET CREATIONS ANY OF THE
FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT MARKET CREATIONS MAY CONTINUE CHARGING
YOU FOR ANY PRODUCT PROVIDED UNDER YOUR ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR
SUBSCRIPTION FOR SUCH PRODUCT (CONFIRMED IN WRITING UPON REQUEST).
Currency exchange settlements will be based on your Payment
Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial
institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method
(the "Payment Method Provider"). If Market Creations does not receive
payment from your Payment Method Provider, you agree to pay all amounts due on
your Account upon demand.
Your non-termination or continued use of the Products on
your Account reaffirms that Market Creations is authorized to charge your
Payment Method. Market Creations may submit those charges for payment and you
will be responsible for such charges. Those submissions will not waive Market
Creations' right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable
in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially
ordered the applicable Product.
Refund Policies
Subject to any withdrawal right you may have under
applicable law, charges are non-refundable. Except as otherwise required by
law, the costs of any returns if permitted will be at your expense.
Termination, Cancellation or Suspension
Market Creations may, in its discretion, terminate, cancel,
or suspend an accepted order if Market Creations is notified that your Payment
Method has expired or has been cancelled, or if Market Creations has reason to
believe that any Account information provided to Market Creations is untrue,
inaccurate, not current or incomplete. Termination, cancellation or suspension,
whether by you or Market Creations, will not alter your obligation to pay all
charges made to your Account before such termination, cancellation or suspension
(including charges made after termination by you but before Market Creations
could reasonably act on your termination notice). You will not be entitled to
any refunds upon termination, cancellation or suspension unless the applicable
agreement expressly so provides.

You represent and warrant that: (1) you are at least 18
years of age or the age required or allowed under applicable law for making a
legal and binding contract; (2) all information that you submit is true and
accurate (including without limitation information relating to your Payment
Method); and (3) you are an individual (or in the case of an entity, an agent

Agreement and that you have made the entity aware of them. You agree not to

evidence as original documents; and (2) prove your agreement or consent in any
manner, including without limitation, by showing that a procedure existed by
which you must have provided consent or engaged in conduct to obtain the
applicable Products.
