buyers and sellers are conducted through the site.
As a result, we have no control over the quality,
safety or legality of the items being posted, the

of the parties to fulfill their obligations in an

is not an indication of creditworthiness, trustworthiness
and acceptability, we encourage you to communicate
directly with each trading partner to help you evaluate
the risks of proceeding with a transaction. Because

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."
