Shill Bidding. Capping, Steering, Buy Backs:
 
Shill bidding damages the integrity and fairness of the marketplace. For that reason, we prohibit shill bidding. Shill bidding happens when anyone - including family, friends, roommates, employees, or online connections - bids on an item with the intent to artificially increase its price or desirability. In addition, sellers cannot bid on or buy items in order to "ensure ones investment". Shill bidders risk having their accounts banned and/or reported to authorities for fraud. Shill bidding shall be determined solely by MBIDZ. Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including: 
Shill bidding is also illegal in many places and can carry severe penalties. MBIDZ has a ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY against shill bidding and uses IP Address Tracking and other methods to enforce this.
 

Anti-Counterfeiting Policy:
Customers must be able to trust that they can always buy with confidence on MBIDZ. Therefore, products offered for sale on MBIDZ must be authentic. The sale of counterfeit products, including any products that have been illegally replicated, reproduced, or manufactured, is strictly prohibited.
We take product authenticity very seriously. It is each seller’s responsibility to source and sell only authentic products. If you sell counterfeit goods, we may immediately suspend or terminate your selling privileges. The sale of counterfeit goods can also lead to legal action by rights holders and civil and criminal penalties.


Items and Descriptions:
 
The list of material offered for sale and its description has been compiled from available data, but there is no guarantee or warranty on the part of MBIDZ relative to quantity, kind, character, description, condition, and/or suitability for use for which it may be desired by the buyer, or in any other respect whatsoever.
 
Acceptable Payment Methods:
 
Payment for property purchased from MBIDZ sellers must be made either in person or online. Each MBIDZ seller determines what payment methods they are willing to accept. Please carefully read each and every auction listing to find the acceptable payment methods for that particular auction listing.
 
Michigan Sales / Use Tax:
 
All items for sale by MBIDZ sellers are subject to all applicable Michigan Sales/Use Tax in accordance with Michigan Sales Tax Act #167, P. A. 1933, as amended.
 
Tax Exempt Customers:

Michigan residents who are tax exempt are required to submit a signed Michigan Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption Form 3372 for each and every purchase from each and every MBIDZ registered seller that you are claiming a tax exemption against.
 
Sanctions:
 
Bidders may be barred from participation in MBIDZ sales or use of the MBIDZ web site for any of the following:
Buyers Responsibility; Forfeiture:
 
It is the buyer’s responsibility to complete the sale according to the terms provided in the auction listing or all rights to the said auction item(s) will be forfeited. Failure to follow through with any and all of the Terms and Conditions will result in a buyer’s MBIDZ account being closed with forfeiture of eligibility to bid on future items and may also lead to civil action in a court of law.
Force Majeure:

MBIDZ will not be liable for any delay or failure to perform any of our obligations under this Agreement by reasons, events or other matters beyond our reasonable control.
