Terms & Conditions
These Terms & Conditions govern your use of Daily Diecast Auctions.
By registering an account, placing bids or using the website, you agree to these Terms.
1. Eligibility
Users must:
- Be at least 18 years old
- Provide accurate information
- Be legally capable of entering contracts
2. Account Registration
Users are responsible for:
- Maintaining password security
- Accuracy of account information
- All activity under their account
We reserve the right to suspend accounts involved in fraud or abuse.
3. Auctions
All bids are legally binding. Submitting a bid indicates an intention to purchase if the bid wins. Bids generally cannot be withdrawn once placed unless permitted by the platform.
The platform reserves the right to:
- Cancel auctions
- Extend auction end times
- Remove listings
- Reject suspicious bids
- Verify bidder identity
4. Winning Bids
Winning bidders agree to:
- Complete payment within the specified payment period
- Provide accurate shipping information
- Pay applicable taxes, duties and shipping charges
Failure to complete payment may result in:
- Account suspension
- Cancellation of the order
- Restriction from future auctions
- Recovery of administrative costs where permitted by law
5. Payments & Bid Holds
Payments are processed through secure third-party payment providers. We reserve the right to perform payment verification before releasing items.
To keep bidding fair, we use temporary card holds. Here is how it works for you:
- Save a card before bidding. You must have a valid credit or debit card saved to your account. Saving a card does not charge you.
- A hold is placed when you bid. Each bid places a temporary hold on your card of 10% of your bid (minimum $25, maximum $500). This is not a charge. The amount is reserved on your card limit but not taken from your account.
- Outbid? Your hold is released. If someone outbids you, your hold is cancelled right away. Depending on your bank, the reserved amount may take a few days to show as available again.
- Auction ends and you didn't win. Any remaining hold is released when the auction closes.
- You win. Your hold stays in place as a deposit. You have 48 hours to click "Pay now" and complete payment for the item and shipping at our store checkout. Once you pay, the hold is released in full. The hold is never used as part of your purchase payment.
- You don't pay within 48 hours. We may charge a $25 non-payment fee from your hold to cover administrative and relisting costs. The order will be cancelled, the item may be offered to the next highest bidder whose bid met the reserve, and your account may be restricted.
- Long-running holds. Card holds expire after about 7 days. For longer auctions, we may renew the hold on your saved card while your bid remains active.
6. Shipping
Shipping times are estimates only. International buyers are responsible for:
- Customs duties
- Import taxes
- Local regulations
Risk transfers to the buyer upon delivery to the shipping carrier unless otherwise required by applicable law.
7. Product Condition
Items are sold based on their listing descriptions and photographs. Vintage and collectible products may have imperfections consistent with age.
Buyers should carefully review all photographs before bidding.
