    Once an order for an item is placed and submitted through the Website, BuyOnIt will accept payment from the buyer. BuyOnIt cannot change or cancel an order until the item is received. Buyers will accept or dispute an item no later than 12 days after the item has been marked shipped by the seller.

  • Shipping & Delivery
    When listing an item you must provide information pertaining to shipping and handling such that the method of calculating accurate shipping costs is clear and conspicuous for the buyer at the time of purchase. The seller is responsible for having the item shipped within 48 hours from the time of notification from BuyOnIt to ship the item. You must acquire a tracking number to appropriately track the shipment and delivery of the item you shipped. You must list the tracking number in the field provided on BuyOnIt’s website. The request for a signature upon delivery is not required, but is recommended. BuyOnIt considers the shipment delivered, when the reputable carrier has determined the package delivered. If the seller requires the item be insured during the shipping process, then the seller will include this fee prior to listing the item in the item’s total. The risk of loss and title for all items listed on this Website is the responsibility of the seller until said delivery of the item is made to the buyer. Once the item has been determined delivered to the buyer by the reputable carrier, then it is the buyer’s responsibility to safe guard the item from the risk of loss and/or damage.

  • BuyOnIt Dispute Resolution Process
    To reject an item, you must use BuyOnIt’s dispute resolution process and follow the procedures below. You understand and agree that the BuyOnIt 100% Guarantee is a procedure provided by BuyOnIt to assist you in avoiding fraud, scams, or other improper commercial transitions. As a result, as a condition of your use of this Website, you agree that if you have a dispute about an item purchased through the Website under the BuyOnIt 100% Guarantee, you will only dispute the transaction using BuyOnIt’s dispute resolution process. If you chose to dispute the transaction through PayPal, or your credit card company, or any other avenue other than BuyOnIt’s dispute resolution process, you understand that you will lose the right to dispute the transaction through BuyOnIt and for purposes hereof, you are deemed to have accepted the item. You also understand and agree that BuyOnIt reserves the right to immediately terminate your account and your use of the BuyOnIt Website without notice to you if BuyOnIt learns that you have disputed a transaction through alternative avenues other than BuyOnIt.

    To dispute the transaction, the item must arrive substantially different than the item as advertised in the listing, or damaged due to packaging (not damage caused by the shipping company). You must notify BuyOnIt that you reject the item by clicking the item’s Dispute button within the time frame described above. You will be required to provide evidence that the item that was received is in fact substantially different from the item that was listed at the time of your order. Both parties to the transaction agree that BuyOnIt will have the sole authority to determine whether the disputed item is substantially similar to or different than the listing advertisement and you agree to be bound by BuyOnIt’s decision in the dispute resolution. Both parties agree to cooperate with BuyOnIt and provide any information and documents reasonably requested by BuyOnIt to resolve the dispute.

    If the dispute resolution finds that the item is acceptable, then the transaction is deemed complete and BuyOnIt will release the buyer’s payment to the seller. However, if the dispute resolution finds that the item is not acceptable, the buyer will be deemed to reject the item by clicking the item’s Dispute button and the buyer will be permitted to ship the item back to the seller at the seller’s cost. Once the item has been received by the seller, seller will have no longer than 12 days from the date the item was shipped, to confirm whether or not the item is the correct item and in the same condition as originally shipped. Once the seller confirms the good condition of the item, or fails to confirm the condition of the item in the appropriate time frame, the buyer will receive a refund for the item. The seller will be responsible for applicable BuyOnIt fees related to the disputed item and any charge back fees or any other fees that BuyOnIt has incurred in connection with the refund of the buyer’s payment to the seller. (Please see the Fees Page www.buyonit.com/listing_fees.asp on the Website for applicable fees associated with a disputed item.) Buyers understand and agree that sellers will not be obligated to accept return of items, whether acceptable to the buyer or not, if such items are not in the same condition as originally shipped.

    If an item was damaged during the shipping process by the reputable carrier company (shipping company), then the buyer will refuse the shipment and have the reputable carrier deliver the item back to the seller, in addition to rejecting the item by clicking on the item’s Dispute button; it will be the sellers responsibility to file a claim with the shipping company to recoup any damages; and the buyer will be refunded the transaction amount. If the item was damaged during shipping, but was caused by improper packaging and it is agreed upon by the shipping company that the cause of the damage was due to improper packaging, then the seller will be held responsible for all costs associated with the return of the item for an even exchange if possible, or if a one of a kind item, a refund. The seller will also be responsible for any charges that BuyOnIt accumulates for crediting the buyer’s account.
