2 - Fees and Services
Joining and bidding on items at AEAuction is free. We do not charge any fees for listing items for sale, or for purchasing items listed by other users.

3 - Information Control
We do not control the information provided by other users that is made available through our system. You may find other user's information to be offensive, harmful, inaccurate, or deceptive. Please use caution, common sense, and practice safe trading when using the Site. Please note that there are also risks of dealing with underage persons or people acting under false pretense. By using this Site, you agree to accept such risks and AEAuction is not responsible for the acts or omissions of users on the Site.

4 - Bidding and Buying
As a buyer, you are obligated to complete the transaction with the seller if you are the highest bidder at the end of an auction. By bidding on an item you agree to be bound by any conditions of sale included in the item's description so long as those conditions of sale are not in violation of this Agreement. Unless you and the seller agree otherwise, you will become the owner upon receipt of the item from the seller. Bids are not retractable except in exceptional circumstances, such as: when the seller materially changes the item's description after you bid or a clear typographical error is made.

5 - Listing and Selling
(a) Listing Description. You must describe your item and all terms of sale on the listing page of the Site. Your listings may only include text descriptions relevant to the sale of that item. All listed items must be listed in an appropriate category, and under the appropriate server.
(b) Binding Bids. If you receive at least one bid at or above your stated minimum price, you are obligated as the seller to complete the transaction with the highest bidder upon the auction's completion, unless there is an exceptional circumstance, such as the buyer fails to meet the terms of your listing.
(c) Fraud. Without limiting any other remedies, AEAuction may suspend or terminate your account if we suspect that you have engaged in fraudulent activity in connection with the Site.
(d) Manipulation. Neither you, bidders nor sellers may manipulate the price of any items nor may you interfere with other user's listings or transactions.
(e) Currency. Gold pieces are the accepted currency of Ashen Empires. All auction listings and bids shall be made in gold pieces. If a seller wants to provide alternate means of payment, such as tokens, they may specify so in the auction listing, however, they must still accept payment in gold as well.


6 - Breach
Without limiting other remedies, we may limit your activity, immediately remove your bids or item listings, warn our community of your actions, issue a warning, temporarily suspend, indefinitely suspend or terminate your membership and refuse to provide our services to you if: (a) you breach this Agreement or the documents it incorporates by referene; (b) we are unable to verify or authenticate any information you provide to us; or (c) we believe that your actions may cause financial loss or legal liability for you, our users, or us.

12 - IP Sharing
Accounts are monitored for duplicates using a number of means, one of which is duplicate IP checking. If you and another user will be accessing your accounts from the same IP address, you MUST request permission beforehand to prevent the accounts from being suspended or banned.

If you are approved to share IP addresses, there is only one restriction on your accounts. Under no circumstances should you bid on items listed by someone with whom you are sharing an IP address. This restriction is to help prevent unintentional bid manipulation. Failure to adhere to it will result in both accounts being temporarily suspended or permanently banned.
