EFOODCOMMERCE.COM
User Agreement
The
EFOODCOMMERCE.com Web Site (the "Site") is provided by efoodcommerce.com
to you ("you" or "User") subject to the following Agreement ("Agreement")
and any operating rules or policies that may be published from time
to time by efoodcommerce.com. Before you subscribe to and/or begin participating
in or using the Site, efoodcommerce.com requires that you read and accept
the following Agreement. BY CLICKING ON THE BUTTON MARKED "I ACCEPT
THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE EFOODCOMMERCE.COM USER AGREEMENT"
ON THE SITE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THIS AGREEMENT AS APPLIED TO
YOUR USE OF THE SITE. If you do not agree to this, you may not access
or otherwise use the Site.
Changes
to this Agreement: efoodcommerce.com may, in its sole discretion,
change, add or remove any portion of this Agreement, at any time,
by posting a new Agreement to the Site. Your continued use of the
Site after such changes are posted will constitute your agreement
to such changed Agreement.
EFOODCOMMERCE.com
is Only a Venue: The Site is only a venue for registered sellers
to conduct sales of Food products and commodities, and for buyers
to request offers on such products.
EFOODCOMMERCE
is not involved in the actual transactions between buyers and sellers
and therefore, has no control over the quality, food safety or other
parameters of the items being traded, the truth or accuracy of the
listings, the ability of sellers to sell product, or the ability
of buyers to buy products.
EFOODCOMMERCE
does not qualify buyers or sellers and does not confirm the identity
of each User. There may be risks dealing with foreign nationals,
underage persons or people acting under false pretense. Since appearance
on the Site is not an indication of creditworthiness, trustworthiness,
and acceptability, Users involved in a sale are advised to communicate
directly with other Users. Because
EFOODCOMMERCE
is not and can not be involved in dealings between Users, in the
event that you have a dispute with another User (whether a buyer
or seller), you hereby release efoodcommerce.com, its directors, officers,
employees and agents from and against any and all 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. If you
are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code §1542,
which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the
creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time
of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially
affected his settlement with the debtor."

Details form. Once you post the Listing Details of an item to the
Site, the item becomes a "Posted Item."
Fees:
For each Posted Item, you shall pay efoodcommerce.com a fee per Posted

Item (the "Commission Fee"). The Listing Fee and Commission Fee
are specified in the FAQs.
Posted
Items: If you post an item to the Site, you acknowledge and
agree that you are extending an irrevocable offer to sell the Posted
Item to a buyer who meets the requirements you have specified in
the Listing Details. Once an item you post becomes a Posted Item,
you shall not sell the Posted Item other than through the Site unless
you pay to efoodcommerce.com the applicable Commission Fee. You agree
to pay such Commission Fee if any such sale occurs within 30 days
after the Posted Item sale closes or expires. As a seller, you may
not contact any buyers in an ongoing sale of Posted Items offered
by another seller that are the same or similar to the Posted Items
you have offered.
Seller's
Warranties: As a seller, you represent and warrant that: (1)
all Listing Details you provide shall be accurate and complete and
shall accurately represent the conditions of the Posted Item at
the expected sale date; (2) no Posted Item you provide for sale
on the Site shall be fraudulent or unfit for cosumption; (3) you
have the right, through actual ownership or otherwise, to provide
any Posted Item for sale on the Site and to sell the item through
the Site; (4) the payment of the Listing Fee and Commission Fee
to efoodcommerce.com for any Posted Item you provide shall not cause
efoodcommerce.com to violate any applicable law, statute, ordinance or
regulation; and (5) you shall not provide as a Posted Item any live
animals, human beings, body parts, soiled clothing, pornography,
bulk e-mail lists, switchblades, weapons or ammunitions or any food
unfit for Human or Pet consumption. efoodcommerce.com reserves the right
to move Posted Items from one category to another, and to remove
categories and Posted Items at any time, in its sole discretion.
Buyer
Conduct: If you use the Site to buy a Posted Item, you acknowledge
and agree that if, as of the close of a sale, you have placed the
highest offer at or above the asking price, you may not retract
the offer, unless the Posting Information included a material inaccuracy
or misrepresentation, or the Posted Item does not materially comply
with the Posting Information.
No
Price Manipulation: Sale price manipulation of any kind, directly
or indirectly, by Users is prohibited, including, but not limited
to, through a secondary account, agent or assign, by making offers
for your own account and the Posted Items you have provided, by
communicating with other buyers and sellers, or by shill bidding.
