Conditions of sale

6. Relationship of the parties.

(a) The Seller, Vendor is responsible for accurately describing and pricing the items it is offering for sale and for delivering the items to the Buyer in accordance with the arrangements made between the Buyer and the Seller, including the transfer of title and payment of sales tax or GST or import/export duty to the appropriate authority.

(b) The buyer is solely responsible for determining the value, condition and authenticity of the items being purchased, to pay the purchase price to the Seller including any sales tax, GST or import/export duties, and to arrange for shipping of the items purchased.

(c) The role of Pop Up Design is expressly limited as set forth in Clause 3 above. Pop up Design relies on the Sellers for such information and is not responsible in any way for the description or pricing of Items on the Site provided by the Seller. Pop up Design is not responsible for the delivery or transfer of legal ownership of Items from a Seller to you. We are not responsible for the delivery of payment from you to the Seller unless we explicitly agree to be.

7. Items available on the site.

(a) All items displayed on the site are offered for sale subject to availability. Some items displayed on the site are unique and are also offered in other retail opportunities independent from Pop Up Design, and therefore some items may no longer be available.

(b) The Site is designed to provide the Buyer access to Items as the Sellers present them. Items can be warehouse stock, brand new, or ex-display. The Buyer is aware that unless stated otherwise, some ex-display Items are neither new nor in ‘perfect’ condition. An Item may require touch-up or repairs prior to use and that the available information about these Items may be limited. Accordingly, Pop Up Design does not verify any information provided by the Seller (or its representative selling an Item) and Pop Up Design makes no representations or warranties with respect to the Seller, the Item or the information related to the Item.

(c) The buyer is aware that unless stated otherwise, Items require assembly.

8. The sale process; Auctions when applicable.

(a) When a Buyer identifies an Item for purchase, the Buyer may make an offer to purchase the Item (“Offer”) directly through the Site’s checkout page, or by contacting Pop up Design through any method listed on the Site (including by telephone). When making an Offer, the Buyer shall submit valid payment information to Pop up Design for payment of the Total Purchase Price. The “Total Purchase Price” is defined as the price agreed to on the Site between Buyer and Seller and includes: (i) the final, agreed upon price of the Item (the “Purchase Price”); (ii) any applicable shipping fees; and (iii) any sales tax, use tax, VAT, Internet sales tax and/or any other taxes or levies that the Seller is required to collect from the Buyer under applicable law at the time of sale. By making an Offer, the Buyer irrevocably agrees to pay the Total Purchase Price and, unless a counter-offer is made, the Seller agrees to sell the Item for the Total Purchase Price to the Buyer.

(b) If a Seller has indicated that the price of an Item is negotiable, then the Buyer may make an Offer through the Site to the Seller to purchase the Item at an alternative price selected by the Buyer or may inquire by using the telephone number displayed on the Site. Such calls will be operated and recorded by Pop up Design to log transactions, and for training and quality assurance purposes.

(c) An Offer may not be cancelled or revoked by a Buyer unless the Offer was made prior to the Total Purchase Price being fully confirmed by the Buyer and Seller e.g. because the shipping fees were not fully known at the time of placing the Offer (subject to any statutory rights that a Buyer may have). The Seller, at its sole discretion, may: (i) accept the Offer; (ii) decline the Offer; or (iii) make a counter-offer to the Buyer (“Counter-Offer”). By making a Counter-Offer, the Seller agrees to sell the Item to the Buyer at the Counter-Offer price and represents that the Item is available for immediate sale as long as the Buyer agrees to the Counter-Offer, and subject to any additional conditions contained in the Counter-Offer. Either the Buyer, the Seller, or Pop up Design may place a time limit on the effectiveness of the Offer and each party acknowledges that the Offer will lapse at the end of the offer period. If the Buyer agrees to pay the Counter-Offer price, then the Buyer shall acknowledge that acceptance by either confirming the purchase on the “offer status section” page of the Buyer’s Pop up Design account, or by confirming acceptance over the telephone.

(d) The sale takes place between the Buyer and the Seller, and a confirmation of sale (“Order Confirmation”) is posted to the “offer status section” page of the Buyer’s Pop up Design account, once: (i) the Seller has accepted and confirmed the Buyer’s Offer; or (ii) the Buyer has acknowledged, accepted and confirmed the Seller’s Counter-Offer. At this point, a binding contract between the Seller and the Buyer with respect to the sale and purchase of the Item is created and enforceable.

(e) In certain circumstances, a Buyer will be required to post a “reserve” amount to support an Offer (“Reserve Amount”). This Reserve Amount shall be authorized to Pop up Design by credit card at the time the Offer is made, and shall be credited against the Total Purchase Price due. In the event the Buyer and Seller are unable to agree upon the Total Purchase Price, or other material terms of the transaction, then Pop up Design will credit the Reserve Amount back to Buyer’s credit card account.

(f) For custom made orders, a Buyer will be required to post a non-refundable “deposit” amount (“Deposit”). The Deposit shall be paid by credit card or other acceptable payment method upon confirmation of sale. The Deposit will be held by the Seller and shall be credited against the Total Purchase Price.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event of an error by Seller as to availability of the Item, or an error by the Seller or Pop up Design as to acceptance of an Offer or Counter-Offer as the case may be, or any other error on Seller’s or Pop up Design’ part with respect to an Order Confirmation or the operation of the Site, the Seller and/or Pop up Design reserve the right in their sole and absolute discretion to rescind that Order Confirmation and purchase of the Item without penalty to any party.

(h) Due to the nature of the internet, occasional glitches, service interruptions or mistakes may cause unintended inaccuracies to appear on the Site. Pop up Design has the right to correct any inaccuracies or mistakes, and to void any purchase of an Item that displays an inaccurate price or description once brought to our attention.

(i) The Auction platform is a feature on the Pop up Design marketplace that allows Sellers to post an Item and designate it for sale by auction (“Auction Item”), which allows multiple parties to bid against each other to purchase the Auction Item.

10. Payment for purchased items.

(a) Immediately upon receipt of the Order Confirmation, the Buyer shall remit an amount equal to the full amount (100%) of the Total Purchase Price. In the event Buyer has previously posted a Reserve Amount with Pop up Design for the Item, then the Reserve Amount shall be credited against the Total Purchase Price and Buyer shall remit the remaining balance of the Total Purchase Price.

(b) The Buyer hereby irrevocably authorizes Pop up Design upon Order Confirmation to charge the Buyer’s credit card or other payment methods for an amount equal to the Total Purchase Price.

11. Taxes and Duties.

When applicable, the Buyer is entirely responsible for paying all applicable sales and use taxes, GST, export and/or import taxes and duties and all transactional taxes or levies related to each Item purchased (collectively, “Taxes”). The Buyer shall pay the Seller such Taxes as the Seller is required to collect, but failure of the Seller to collect the Taxes will not relieve the Buyer’s obligation. The Buyer must determine, pay, collect, remit and report to the appropriate taxing authority the correct amount of all export and/or import taxes or duties payable upon export of the Item from its country of origin and import into Australia or any other country. In the event that an exemption applies, it is the Buyer’s sole responsibility to establish and/or document any applicable exemption from Taxes.
