2.2 CCA Timed Online Auctions are an online marketplace that allows a seller to list an item for sale, primarily by auction, for the purposes of allowing interested buyers to purchase that item. In the event of a successful bid (auction), a contract will be entered into directly between the seller and the buyer. If the item is listed as “Buy it Now” the contract will be entered into when the seller accepts the buyer’s offer to purchase the item. We will charge a fee to the buyer of the item.
2.3 We do not sell items; we only provide a marketplace service for buyers and sellers to transact between themselves and to assist in the facilitation of that process.

This applies whether you are a seller or a buyer on our online marketplace. The details on how to register with us are set out on our marketplace. 
3.3 When registering to use the marketplace, you must tell us if you are a consumer or a trader. A trader is a person who is acting for purposes relating to that person’s trade, business, craft, or profession, whether acting personally or through another person acting in the trader’s name or on the trader’s behalf.  A consumer is an individual acting for purposes which are wholly or mainly outside that individual’s trade, business, craft, or profession. If you are a trader you must register an account as a company and enter your trading name.
3.4 In certain instances, a consumer may have the right to cancel a contract provided they do so within a short period. You should be aware that your 14-day right to cancel this contract with us (see clause 10 of these terms) will immediately cease upon you either listing an item for sale or you buy or bidding on an item. You will therefore remain liable to pay to us any fees to us which arise from your use of the marketplace, even if the obligation to pay such a fee arises during this 14-day period. 
3.5 For an account that enables you to buy or sell via our marketplace we will need your email address, full name and postal address, and telephone number. We will also ask for you for one form of ID such as a driving licence, passport, or utility bill to enable us to confirm your identity. When you bid, you are agreeing to pay our buyers fee. An invoice will be emailed to you for payment if you are the winning bidder. When you list an item for sale you are agreeing to pay the fees we would have collected from the buyer should you withdraw your item from sale before the end of the auction or if you fail to complete the transaction (for a seller’s liability to pay fees, please refer to clause 6 of these terms).

3.6 Our privacy policy is set out on our marketplace. For registration purposes, we will use the information supplied to verify your identity before we can accept your application for an account.  
3.7 If we are not able to verify your identity or we have some other concerns with your registration application, we have the right to decline your application for an account with us.

3.9 We have the right to disable any user identification code or password, whether chosen by you or allocated by us, at any time if, in our reasonable opinion, you have failed to comply with any of these terms.
3.10 If you know or suspect that anyone other than you know your user identification code or password, you must promptly notify our customer services team. 
3.11 As a registered user you are agreeing to use our marketplace only for the purposes it is intended, any unlawful use of our marketplace including but not limited to:
(a) committing any fraudulent act;
(b) masquerading as a consumer when you are a trader selling in the course of your business; or

Appendix 1 - AUCTION RULES

Bidding will progress in increments once the reserve is met. If no reserve, bidding will start at the lowest increment of £100:

£100 increments up to £10,000

£250 increments from £10,001 to £50,000

£500 increments above £50,001

Bids must be multiples of the bid increment, for example if the bidding opens at £100 the next bid is £200. 

Bids must be in multiples of whole increments, 

Multiples of £100 up to £10,000

Multiples of £250 between £10,250 and £50,000

Multiples of £500 above £50,000

If a bid is placed is placed of a partial increment the bid will be rounded down to the nearest whole increment i.e. a bid is entered for £250 will be reduced to £200.

Maximum bids 

Submitting a maximum bid enables the system to place bids on behalf of the bidder when someone else places a bid against the same item, if the maximum bid is placed before the reserve is met it will automatically place a bid at the reserve price. 

A Maximum bid will ensure the absent bidder leads the bidding until another bidder places a bid higher than their Maximum bid value.
