General

Sold On is a marketplace that allows you to buy and sell certain consumer goods.

As a user of the website, buyers and sellers agree that they must create an account to buy or sell items on our site.

Sold On provides a number of services. These services provide the user with a platform to buy and sell second-hand consumer products. Sold On also in some circumstances offers products for sale on its own behalf. These products will be identified as being sold directly by us. These products are covered by CRA and distance selling regulations.

Apart from where products are sold directly by Sold On, Sold On is neither the buyer or the seller in these transactions.

Apart from where Sold On is the direct seller of a product we do not set prices. Although Sold On provides historical data we are not an auctioneer. Any historic prices are meant as a guideline only. Because sellers set the prices of products the price may be higher or lower than retail prices.
