qualified by the seller as a Binding Bid (meets any set reserve price).
By bidding on an item you agree to be bound by the
conditions of sale included in the item's description so long as those
conditions of sale are not in violation of this Agreement or unlawful. Unless
you and the seller agree otherwise, you will become the item's owner upon
receipt of the item from the seller. Bids are not retractable except in
exceptional circumstances, such as: when the seller changes the item's
description after you bid; a clear typographical error is made.
As a seller, you are obligated to reserve any item
posted in the auction until the close of the auction and complete the
transaction with the buyer within 10 (ten) days of the end of an auction if the
bid equals or exceeds the bid terms set at the time the auction was created
(minimum bid/reserve price).

Repeated violations of these terms, including failure to
meet your obligations will result in the indefinite suspension of your auction

reason we wish depending on many unlisted detailed reasons.
Fraud
Guild Wars Guru Auction may suspend or terminate your

connection with the Site.
Guild Wars Guru Auction is not an Auctioneer
Although we are referred to as an online auction web site,
it is important to realize that we are not a traditional
"auctioneer." Instead, the Site acts as a venue to allow anyone to
offer, sell, and buy Guild Wars items, at anytime, from anywhere, in an
auction-style pricing format commonly referred to as "online
auctions" or "auctions." We are not involved in the actual
transaction between buyers and sellers. As a result, we have no control over
the quality 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 pay
for items. We cannot ensure that a buyer or seller will actually complete a
transaction.
Release
Because we are a venue, in the event that you have a dispute
with one or more users, you release Guild Wars Guru Auction from claims,
demands and damages 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.
Information Control
We do not control the information provided by other users
that is made available through our system. You may find other user's
information to be offensive, harmful, inaccurate, or deceptive. Please use
caution, common sense, and practice safe trading when using the Site. Please note
that there are also risks of dealing with underage persons or people acting
under false pretense. Additionally, there may also be risks dealing with
international trade and foreign nationals. By using this Site, you agree to
accept such risks and Guild Wars Guru Auction is not responsible for the acts
or omissions of users on the Site.
