THE FOLLOWING DESCRIBES THE
TERMS ON WHICH THE WAYMATIC ONLINE CLASSIFIEDS OFFERS YOU ACCESS TO OUR
SERVICES.
Welcome to The Waymatic
Online Classifieds' User Agreement. This Agreement
describes the terms and conditions applicable to your
use of our services at the Pre-Owned section of
Waymatic.com.
We may amend this Agreement at any time by posting the
amended terms on our site. Except as stated below, all
amended terms shall automatically be effective 30 days
after they are initially posted on our site. This
Agreement may not be otherwise amended except in a
writing signed by you and Waymatic Inc. This agreement
is effective on September 1st, 2002 for new registering
users, and is otherwise effective on September 1st, 2002
for all users registered prior to March 21, 2001
Membership Eligibility.
Our services are available only to individuals who can
form legally binding contracts under applicable law.
Without limiting the foregoing, our services are not
available to minors or to temporarily or indefinitely
suspended The Waymatic Online Classifieds members. If
you do not qualify, please do not use our services.
Further, your The Waymatic Online Classifieds account
and User Id may not be transferred or sold to another
party.
Fees and Services.
Joining The Waymatic Online Classifieds is free. Our
Fees and Credits Policy is available (at http://www.waymatic.com/classifieds/classifieds/xccpsellersguide.asp)
and is incorporated by reference. We may change our Fees
and Credits Policy and the fees for our services from
time to time. Our changes to the policy are effective
after we provide you with at least fourteen (14) days'
notice of the changes by emailing members of changes
made. However, we may choose to temporarily change our
Fees and Credits Policy and the fees for our services
for promotional events (for example, free listing days)
and such changes are effective when we post or advertise
the temporary promotional event on The Waymatic Online
Classifieds. When you list an item you have an
opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will
be charged for the use of our listing services. We may
in our sole discretion change some or all of our
services at any time. In the event we introduce a new
service, the fees for that service are effective at the
launch of the service. Unless otherwise stated, all fees
are quoted in U.S. Dollars. You are responsible for
paying all fees associated with using our service and
our website and all applicable taxes.
The Waymatic Online Classifieds is Only a Venue.
3.1 Online Classifieds. Our site acts as a venue to
allow anyone to offer, sell, and buy new and used
equipment, at anytime, from anywhere in a fixed price
format. We are not involved in the actual transaction
between buyers and sellers. As a result, we have no
control over the quality, safety 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 buy items. We cannot ensure that a buyer or
seller will actually complete a transaction.
3.2 Safe Trading. Because user authentication on the
Internet is difficult, The Waymatic Online Classifieds
cannot and does not confirm each user's purported
identity. We encourage you to communicate directly with
potential trading partners through the tools available
on our Site. You may also wish to consider using a third
party escrow service or services that provide additional
user verification.
3.3 Release. Because we are not involved in the actual
transaction between buyers and sellers, in the event
that you have a dispute with one or more users, you
release Waymatic Inc. (and our officers, directors,
agents, subsidiaries and employees) from claims, demands
and damages (actual and consequential) 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.
3.4 Information Control. We do not control the
information provided by other users which 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 our 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.
Listing and Selling.
4.1 Listing Description. You must be legally able to
sell the item(s) or service you list for sale on our
Site. You must describe your item or service and all
terms of sale on the listing page of our Site. Your
listings may only include text descriptions, graphics,
pictures and other content relevant to the sale of that
item or service. All listed items or services must be
listed in an appropriate category. At any one time you
may not promote identical items or services in more than
ten (1) listing on our site.
4.2 Fraud. Without limiting any other remedies, The
Waymatic Online Classifieds may suspend or terminate
your account if we suspect that you (by conviction,
settlement, insurance or escrow investigation, or
otherwise) have engaged in fraudulent activity in
connection with our site.
4.3 Manipulation. Neither you, buyers nor sellers may
manipulate the price of any item or service nor may you
interfere with other user's listings.
Your Information.
5.1 Definition. "Your Information" is defined
as any information you provide to us or other users in
the registration, buying or listing process, in direct
contact or through any email feature. You are solely
responsible for Your Information, and we act as a
passive conduit for your online distribution and
publication of Your Information.
5.2 Restrictions. Your Information (or any items or
services listed): (a) shall not be false, inaccurate or
misleading; (b) shall not be fraudulent or involve the
sale of counterfeit or stolen items; (c) shall not
infringe any third party's copyright, patent, trademark,

detrimentally interfere with, surreptitiously intercept
or expropriate any system, data or personal information;
(g) shall not create liability for us or cause us to
lose (in whole or in part) the services of our ISPs or
other suppliers; and (h) shall not link directly or
indirectly to or include descriptions of goods or

(bb) are identical to other items you have up for
auction but are priced lower than your item's or

on a web site other than The Waymatic Online
Classifieds' (this does not prevent linking to or

link to or include. Furthermore, you may not list any
item or service on our site (or consummate any
transaction that was initiated using our service) that,
by paying to us the listing fee, could cause us to
violate any applicable law, statute, ordinance or
regulation, or that violates our current Prohibited,
Questionable and Infringing Items (at http://www.waymatic.com/classifieds/classifieds/xccpprohibited.asp)

non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable,
royalty-free, sublicensable (through multiple tiers)
right to exercise the copyright, publicity, and database
rights (but no other rights) you have in Your
Information, in any media now known or not currently
known, with respect to Your Information. The Waymatic

parties.
