LISTING AND SELLING 

  • Definition: “Your Equipment Information” is defined as any information you provide to us about your equipment, via phone, fax, online, applications, or through any email feature.
  • There is no contractual obligation to Piling Broker when you List your equipment. Only when we have a buyer interested in your equipment do we require a signed sales contract before proceeding. That means you are not financially obliged to Piling Broker unless we sell your equipment. If you sell your equipment yourself, please inform Piling Broker so that we may remove your listing(s).
  • Listings will not display seller names or addresses. All transactions and offers will be conducted through Piling Broker or one of its designated agents.
  • Piling Broker determines the published List Price based upon your asking price. Pricing may also be determined by other factors such as market conditions, currencies and our commission structure.
  • You must be legally able to sell the item(s) you list for sale on the Site. You must describe your item and all terms of sale on the listing page of the Site. Your listings may only include text descriptions, graphics, pictures and other content relevant to the sale of that item. All listed items must be listed in an appropriate category and are subject to revision at our discretion.
  • Piling Broker reserves the right to refuse listings submissions for any reason.
  • Stock Photos: Piling Broker strives to authentically represent equipment on our site. For that reason, we do not accept “stock” or promotional photos from manufactures websites. However, if a manufacturer has listed new equipment on our site we will accept their “stock” picture as a fair depiction of their product.
  • License: By listing your equipment, you agree to grant Piling Broker and its affiliated companies a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sub-licensable (through multiple tiers) right to exercise the copyright, publicity, and database rights (but no other rights) in any media now known or not currently known, with respect to Your Equipment Information. You agree that this license includes the right to provide, promote, and publish your listing(s), including pricing, to other companies, organizations or media services, and the right to utilize that information within the scope of business conducted by Piling Broker and its affiliated companies. Your Equipment Information, however, only will be used in accordance with our Privacy Policy

BROWSING AND BUYING

    Online Auction – If you are the highest bidder and have met or exceeded the applicable opening bid at close of the auction.

    Make Offer – If you submit a bid on the Equipment and (a) the bid meets or exceeds the minimum price as established by the Seller (“Asking Price”); (b) the bid is accepted by the Seller; or (c) the Seller proposes a counter offer and you accept. Otherwise, your obligation to complete the transaction will expire two (2) business days after it was submitted or upon acceptance of another bid by the Seller, whichever occurs first.

    Reserve – (a) If you are the highest bidder and your bid meets or exceeds the minimum price as established by the Seller (“Reserve Price”) at the close of the Reserve Period noted on the Reserve listing (“Reserve Period”), or (b) If the Reserve Price is not met, you’ve submitted a bid on the Equipment and, within two (2) business days after the closing of the Reserve Period, the Seller proposes a counter offer and you accept.
