Terms & Conditions

1. About these terms

These terms and conditions ("Terms") govern your use of ex-display.co.uk (the "Site"), a UK online marketplace and directory for ex-display, ex-demo and clearance stock. In these Terms, "we", "us" and "our" mean the operator of ex-display.co.uk, and "you" means anyone who uses the Site, whether as a visitor, a buyer or a seller.

By using the Site you agree to these Terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the Site. Please also read them alongside our privacy policy. We may update these Terms from time to time, so check the date above before relying on them.

2. Definitions

• Site: the ex-display.co.uk website and its content.
• Seller: a business or individual who registers to list products on the Site.
• Buyer: anyone who views a listing and clicks through to a seller to enquire about or buy an item.
• Listing: a product entry displayed on the Site that links out to a seller.
• Content: text, images, data and other material on the Site.

3. How the marketplace works

ex-display.co.uk is a directory and marketplace that connects buyers with third-party sellers and retailers. We gather listings for ex-display, ex-demo and clearance items and present them in one place. Each listing links out to the seller's own website, where the sale takes place.

We do not own, hold, store, inspect, sell, dispatch or take payment for any of the goods listed. We are not a party to any transaction between a buyer and a seller. Any contract for the sale of an item is made directly between the buyer and the seller, on the seller's own terms. Browsing the Site is free.

4. Using the site (visitors and buyers)

1. You may use the Site only for lawful purposes and in line with these Terms. You must not misuse the Site, attempt to gain unauthorised access, scrape or harvest data at scale, introduce harmful code, or use it in any way that could damage or disrupt it.
2. You must be at least 18 years old, or have the permission of a parent or guardian, to use the Site.
3. Listings are provided by sellers. We present them in good faith but we do not guarantee that any listing, price, description, image or availability is accurate, current or complete. Prices and availability are set by the seller and can change or sell out at any time.
4. Ex-display and clearance items are usually one-off pieces. A listing may no longer be available by the time you click through.

5. Buying and third-party links

1. When you click "Visit Seller" or a similar link, you leave the Site and go to a third-party website that we do not control. That site's own terms and privacy policy apply.
2. Any purchase is a contract between you and the seller. You should read the listing and the seller's terms, check the item's condition, dimensions, delivery and returns, and satisfy yourself before buying.
3. Your statutory rights as a consumer, including under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, are against the seller you buy from, not against us.
4. Affiliate links. Some outbound links on the Site are affiliate links. If you click one and go on to buy, we may earn a commission from the retailer at no extra cost to you. This never affects the price you pay and does not change our listings.
5. We are not responsible for third-party websites, their content, their goods, or any transaction you enter into with a seller.

6. Seller terms: accounts and shops

1. To sell on the Site, register for a seller account with accurate details, then submit a "Shop Opening Request" from your seller control panel. We review requests, usually within 24 to 48 hours, and may approve or decline at our discretion.
2. Once approved, you can list products. Basic listing is free. Where a membership or subscription plan applies, its features and any fees are shown at sign-up and are subject to these Terms.
3. You are responsible for keeping your account details accurate and your login secure, and for all activity under your account.

7. Seller terms: listings and responsibilities

1. Each listing must be accurate and not misleading, with a clear description, honest condition notes, genuine images and a fair price, and must include the "External Link" to your own website via the "Visit Seller" button.
2. You warrant that you have the right to sell each item, that it is described accurately, and that the listing and sale comply with all applicable laws, including consumer protection and product safety law.
3. You are solely responsible for your goods, pricing, stock, fulfilment, delivery, returns, customer service and after-sales care. As the seller, you are the trader for the purposes of consumer law.
4. You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to display, reproduce and promote your listing content on and in connection with the Site.

You must not list, or use the Site for, any of the following:

• Illegal, counterfeit, stolen, recalled or unsafe goods, or anything you do not have the right to sell.
• Weapons, hazardous materials, or any item restricted or prohibited under UK law.

• Using another party's images, text, trade marks or intellectual property without permission.
