To participate in auctions as a buyer or seller, you must register with your full name, email address, phone number, and address. You must be at least 18 years old to register an account and participate in auctions on Memorabilia.auction.

By registering, you confirm, through active checkbox consent, that you have read, understood, and agree to these terms.

3. Roles and Responsibilities

3.1 Seller's Responsibility

The seller is the legal party to the sale and is responsible for providing accurate and complete information about the item, including condition, any defects, and provenance.
The seller is solely responsible for the authenticity, condition, ownership rights, and legality of selling the item, including that the sale does not infringe any third-party intellectual property rights.
The seller warrants that they have the right to sell the item and that the information provided is accurate to the best of their knowledge.

3.2 Buyer's Responsibility

The buyer is solely responsible for assessing the item and the information provided before placing a bid.
Bids are binding, and the buyer is responsible for familiarizing themselves with the auction rules in Section 4 before placing a bid.

3.3 Memorabilia.auction's Responsibility

Memorabilia.auction facilitates the auction platform and the technical execution of payment as described in Section 5, but is not a party to the purchase agreement between buyer and seller.
Memorabilia.auction has no responsibility for the authenticity or condition of the item, or for whether the seller or buyer fulfils their obligations under the agreement, except as required by mandatory law.
Memorabilia.auction disclaims liability for indirect losses arising from defects or deficiencies in items, to the extent permitted under applicable law.
Disputes between buyer and seller are handled directly between the parties. Memorabilia.auction has no obligation to mediate, investigate, or resolve such disputes, but may, at its own discretion, assist by forwarding contact information.

4. Auction Rules

Bids are binding. When the bidding deadline expires, the highest bid wins.
There is no right of withdrawal on items purchased at auction, to the extent the auction qualifies for the relevant statutory exemption for public auctions under applicable consumer protection law, including that the consumer has a genuine opportunity to be present at the auction.
Seller and buyer undertake to complete the transaction in accordance with applicable law and these terms.
Auctions are extended for a short period in the event of bids placed close to the deadline.
Buyers should review the item's description, images, and any seller history before placing a bid. Memorabilia.auction recommends contacting the seller with questions in case of uncertainty before bidding.

5. Payment and Settlement

Payment occurs directly between buyer and seller. Memorabilia.auction does not receive payment on behalf of the parties beyond the platform's own fee, see Section 6.
Buyer and seller must independently agree on payment, delivery, and any applicable VAT between themselves.
Memorabilia.auction uses Stripe and Stripe Connect as its primary payment partner.
All buyers and sellers must register a valid payment card to participate in auctions or place bids. Card information is stored securely with Stripe and not with Memorabilia.auction.
Upon sale, the buyer is automatically charged the purchase amount through Stripe if the seller has chosen to use Stripe.
Payment from buyer to seller is made directly via Stripe Connect if the seller has activated this option. Memorabilia.auction never transfers funds on behalf of the parties beyond its own fee.
Memorabilia.auction automatically deducts the platform's buyer and seller fees directly via Stripe.
Sellers who do not wish to use Stripe may offer alternative payment methods outside the platform, such as PayPal, Vipps, bank transfer, or another chosen solution. Settlement and responsibility for payment are then handled directly between buyer and seller, and Memorabilia.auction has no visibility into or responsibility for such transactions.
Memorabilia.auction is not responsible for the execution, delay, or default of transactions between the parties, regardless of the payment method chosen.

6. Fees and Costs

Memorabilia.auction charges a 5% transaction fee to both buyer and seller upon completed sale via Stripe.
No fees apply for creating an auction listing or for unsold items.
The fee rate may be changed with prior notice, see Section 13.
