Seller understands that upon the Vehicle or Item’s approval by JDMSupply, the Vehicle or Item will be listed on the Website for a period of at least seven (7) days for the Initial Auction.

Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, JDMSupply’s sole duty shall be to use commercially reasonable efforts to effect a sale of the Vehicle or Item during the Term of this Agreement, with the understanding that JDMSupply makes no warranty or guaranty in connection with whether or not the Vehicle or Item will be sold or exchanged hereunder or the revenues that may or may not be derived therefrom and that JDMSupply shall not be liable for any loss suffered by Seller relating to the Vehicle/Item or subject matter hereto including but not limited to a bidder refusing to enter into a sales contract, failing to tender full payment, or otherwise not completing a purchase of a Vehicle or Item. JDMSupply shall not be charged with the custody of the Vehicle or Item listed hereunder, its management, maintenance, security, insuring, or repair.

Seller hereby agrees and acknowledges that JDMSupply is authorized to charge any amount mentioned in this Section against the credit card that JDMSupply has on file for Seller.

In the event that the Buyer defaults in connection with the Vehicle or Item following a sale conducted hereunder, Seller agrees and acknowledges that JDMSupply will not be liable for any such default by Buyer.
