4. Security Deposit

Before bidding, you must place a refundable Security Deposit of $600.00 USD or 10.0% of intended maximum bid, whichever is greater ("Security Deposit"). Security Deposits can be made by credit card or bank wire transfer.

Security Deposits placed using a credit card or debit card cannot be applied to the purchase of any item.

All members including those with Starter, Premium, and VIP memberships must place a Security Deposit before bidding. By placing a Security Deposit with the Company, you agree to the terms set forth herein for when the Security Deposit can or cannot be refunded, and by what method that Deposit can be refunded.

Before the Security Deposit can be refunded, your account must meet the following conditions: no active bids, no active purchases, no outstanding offers, no balances due, no items awaiting pickup, no outstanding paperwork to be submitted, and no other potential financial liabilities. When all these conditions are met, and upon written request, Company may refund the Security Deposit at its discretion, and reserves the right to withhold the Security Deposit for any reason it sees fit.

If the Security Deposit payment was made by any other form of payment than a Credit Card, the member’s registered address is in the United States, and the Security Deposit came from the member, the member must provide their routing and account numbers in order for the Security Deposit to be refundable. Such refunds will be made by ACH transfer. If the Security Deposit payment was made by any other form of payment than a Credit Card, the member’s registered address is in the United States, and the Security Deposit came from anyone other than the member, the member must provide a voided check for the payor’s checking account, in order for the Security Deposit to be refundable. Such refunds will be made by ACH transfer. If the member who paid the Security Deposit does not have a bank account, or the third party who paid the Security Deposit on a member’s behalf does not have a “voided” check, please contact us to make other arrangements for potential Security Deposit refunds.

If the Security Deposit payment is made by any other form of payment other than a Credit Card and the member’s registered address is outside the United States, the refund will be issued by wire transfer. International wire refunds incur a Thirty Dollar ($30) processing fee.

If you make your Security Deposit by credit card, we may place a temporary “hold” in the amount of your Security Deposit, rather than charging your credit card. This “hold” appears on your credit card account as a pending transaction, but you do not actually pay us this money. Therefore, to “refund” your Security Deposit, we simply release the “hold” and the pending transaction is removed. If you request a refund of your Security Deposit, and we have removed the “hold” on your account, we do not have any control of how quickly your bank will show those funds available in your account. Depending on your bank, this may take up to one statement cycle for the pending transaction to be removed. If your Security Deposit was made via a charge to your credit card, your refund will be made to that credit card.

Please allow up to thirty (30) business days for all refund and release processing.

5. Sale Policies

After a purchase has been made, you will be invoiced by Salvagebid. Your invoice will include the amount of the winning bid, accepted offer or counter offer, or the buy it now amount, plus the Salvagebid fees which are outlined in our FAQ, the fees that the auction charges, and a documentation transfer fee, which is outlined in our FAQ.

Once a member makes their first purchase, their account will be locked until the balance due on the first invoice is paid in full.

Due to various state and federal regulations, not all vehicles listed on our Website are available for purchase by all members. In some cases, according to your state regulations you might not be allowed to directly purchase vehicles located in the state in which you reside. Before bidding on any vehicle, you must verify with your DMV what your limitations are regarding registration of any vehicle you wish to purchase.

A. Payment

Payments (other than the Security Deposit) shall be made via wire only Wire payments must indicate a member’s name, and the name and address of the person or business sending the wire, if the wire is sent by anyone other than the member. In the event payments are made by third parties on behalf of a member’s account, and an over occurs or amounts are due back for any reason, the appropriate funds will be returned to the third-party payor and not the member. There is a Twenty-Five ($25) USD fee charged for incoming wires. There is a Thirty ($30) USD fee charged for outgoing wires.

We do not accept credit cards for purchases. We do not deduct your Security Deposit from any payments due, unless your Security Deposit was made by wire transfer. If Company holds a Security Deposit because of a balance owed, you must submit payment via wire transfer (or other secure method determined by Company) before Security Deposit can be refunded. In the event that you refuse to pay via specified payment method or in a timely manner, any amount of the Security Deposit up to and including the full amount (even if it is greater than the balance owed) will be applied against the balance due. By applying the Security Deposit to a balance on your account we have not waived the right to pursue all legal and equitable remedies to collect the full amount due.

The Auction Fee is the greater of $1,000.00 USD or 15.0% of the sale price. The Company’s Transaction Fee is the greater of $299 or 10% of the sale price. Relist fee must be paid by wire transfer only. In the event that you fail to pay the Relist Fee by wire transfer within the time specified, this Relist Fee will be taken from your Security Deposit paid in advance to Company.

You agree that failure to pay all outstanding balances due on your account may result in your account being referred to a third party for collections purposes, with the addition of a One Hundred Dollar ($100) collections fee to the original amount owed plus any other collection costs, including court costs and reasonable Attorneys Fees.

Members irrevocably and unconditionally waive and release their rights (if any) to recover from Salvagebid, our affiliates and vendors, including the their directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents, subsidiaries, partners, and affiliates of Salvagebid, our affiliates, and vendors (“Salvagebid Indemnities”) any and all damages, losses, liabilities, costs, expenses, or claims, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, or foreseen or unforeseen, which may arise from or be related to bodily injury, property damage, Member’s noncompliance or alleged noncompliance with law or regulations, and or Member’s violation of this Agreement or any other agreement between the parties. Members agree to indemnify, defend, and hold Salvagebid Indemnitees harmless from any and all damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (including Attorney Fees) arising from claims made by the Member or related to: 1) bodily injury or property damage related to the provision of the services contemplated here in and or any vehicles sold via our Services 2) the Member’s failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, 3) the Member’s sale or transfer of vehicles to third parties, 4) claims made against Salvagebid Indemnitees by the third parties related to Member, 5) Member’s noncompliance with any portion of this Agreement, including the nonpayment for Services, including but not limited to all Storage Fees, Late Fees, Relist Fees, and all other related costs, fees, and charges; and or those damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (including Attorney Fees) incurred in enforcing and or defending the provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to expenses related to investigation; any and all attorney, expert, and or collection fees, costs, disbursements or other expenses and interest which may be imposed in connection therewith, as provided in this Agreement.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you, hereby agree to indemnify Salvagebid Indemnities against any and all Losses arising out of, resulting from, or related to any claim brought by a third-party related to your membership with us and or to any transaction(s) with you, including but not limited to the items listed in Section 8 C (Liability to, and General Release of, Salvagebid) (collectively "Third-Party Claim"). Your indemnification obligations shall be subject to the following limitations:

(1) Notice. If a Salvagebid Indemnity seeks indemnification for a Third-Party Claim, we shall give you written notice promptly after we become aware of the facts giving rise to such claim for indemnification (an “Indemnified Claim”), and in any event within 90 days, specifying in reasonable detail the factual basis of the Indemnified Claim and stating the amount of the damages (or if not known, a good faith estimate of the amount of damages).

(2) Control. In the event of receipt of notice of a Third-Party Claim, you shall have the right to control and defend such Third-Party Claim, provided such control and defense fully protects the interests of Salvagebid, our affiliates and vendors, in our sole subject determination. Should you decline to control and defend the Third-Party Claim or should we determine that your control and defense does not fully protect the interest of Salvagebid Indemnities, we shall have the right, at any time, to control and defend the Third-Party Claim in such manner as we may deem appropriate. The controlling party shall select counsel, contractors, experts, and consultants of recognized standing and competence reasonably acceptable to the other party, shall take reasonable steps necessary in the investigation, defense or settlement thereof, and shall diligently and promptly pursue the resolution thereof. All parties shall cooperate fully with the party conducting the defense of any Third-Party Claim.

(3) Settlement. The party controlling the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third-Party Claims subject to the following provisions. If you are controlling the litigation, you may not enter into a settlement or consent to an entry of judgment with respect to any Third-Party Claim without Salvagebid’s express written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. If we are controlling the litigation, we may not enter into a settlement or consent to an entry of judgment with respect to any Third-Party Claim without your express written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

It shall not be considered unreasonable for Salvagebid to withhold consent if you have not reimbursed Salvagebid, and our affiliates and vendors for their Losses or made arrangements to do so which are acceptable to Salvagebid. It shall not be unreasonable for Salvagebid to withhold consent if the proposed settlement or entry of judgment could negatively impact Salvagebid’s professional reputation. Regardless of who assumes control and defense of the global Third-Party Claim, Salvagebid reserves the right to directly settle or otherwise resolve any claim against Salvagebid.

D. Waiver of California Civil Code § 1542

If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code § 1542, which reads: "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."

9. Dispute Resolution

A. Limitations Period

YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT REGARDLESS OF ANY STATUTE OR LAW TO THE CONTRARY, ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE, OR CAUSE OF ACTION AGAINST THE COMPANY, OR OUR AFFILIATES OR VENDORS RELATED TO YOUR TRANSACTION WITH THE COMPANY, MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DATE ON WHICH SUCH CLAIM AROSE OR BE FOREVER BARRED. AN ACTION IS ONLY PROPERLY COMMENCED BY FOLLOWING THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDURES CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 9 OF THE AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THAT THE ONLY PROPER WAY TO INITIATE AN ACTION IS BY FILING A STATEMENT OF CLAIM WITH ARBITRATION SERVICES OF PORTLAND AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 9F.

B. Choice of Law

The laws of the State of Oregon shall govern any and all Claims related to to the use of Salvagebid’s services, any purchase from Salvagebid or an affiliate, and any action between the Parties or anyone claiming through one of the parties to this Agreement. You agree that only the laws of the State of Oregon shall apply, notwithstanding any conflict of law principals and without regard to your state or county of residence, domicile, origin, or where you accessed the Website or Services.

C. Notice of Dispute Form

If either party has a question or a concern that they’ve not been able to get resolved based on reviewing the Website, and this Agreement, they should contact the other to attempt to resolve the issue. To discuss matters with us, please contact our Buyer Services Center via email, text, or phone. If after communicating with the other party, if a party still believes they have a Claim, before taking any action against the other party (such as filing in small claims court, filing arbitration, etc.) the initiating party must send a Notice of Dispute to the other party. A Notice of Dispute is a notice to the other party, sent on this form via Certified Mail. If you do not send us the Notice of Dispute form via Certified Mail, it is not considered to be a Notice of Dispute. All information called for in the Notice of Dispute must be included, as well as any other documents that go to support the nature of your Claim. If we intend to pursue a Claim against you, we will send you a Notice of Dispute at the address listed in your profile. It is your responsibility to keep your address current.

If the issues in the Notice of Dispute are not resolved within thirty (30) days after the date that the Notice is received via Certified Mail, or if a written denial or rejection of the Claims is received by the complaining party prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period, either party may initiate arbitration as provided in Section 9F of this Agreement.

D. Agreement to Arbitrate

You and Salvagebid agree that all Claims shall be resolved exclusively though final and binding arbitration, rather that in any court. You and Salvagebid each waive any right to a jury trial under this Agreement. Each party agrees that neither party may file any legal action (including any action in small claims), other than as otherwise provided herein. In the event that a party files such action, the filing is a breach of this Agreement. In the event that either party files any action in violation of this Agreement, no applicable statute of limitations period(s) will be tolled by the filing. In the event that either party files any action in violation of this Agreement, they agree to pay all costs and Attorney Fees (as defined by this Agreement in Section 11) related to the Company’s efforts to get such action dismissed or transferred, specifically to include all attorney time spent in preparation for any small claims’ actions. You consent to service of process by certified or registered mail at the last address provided by you to the Company as listed in the Company’s records.

E. Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief

YOU AND SALVAGEBID AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING ANY CLAIM AGAINST THE OTHER OR DEALERS ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND SALVAGEBID AGREE OTHERWISE IN WRITING, NO JUDGE OR ARBITRATOR MAY CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIM AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS ACTION OR PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM. ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER SALVAGEBID MEMBERS.

F. Arbitration Procedures

Arbitration is an alternative dispute resolution method. Instead of a judge as the ultimate decision maker, arbitration uses an arbitrator or a panel of arbitrators, depending on the amount at issue in the case, to decide cases. The arbitrator or arbitration panel has the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising out of or in any way relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Agreement to Arbitrate (or any portion thereof), or of this Agreement (or any portion thereof), including any claim that all or any portion of the Agreement to Arbitrate or this Agreement is unenforceable.

The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different Salvagebid members but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same Salvagebid member to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

The arbitration of all Claims shall be conducted and governed by the Arbitration Services of Portland ("ASP") under its rules and procedures except as provided below. All arbitration rules and procedures are modified as follows:

1. The arbitration hearing shall take place no later than 120 days after arbitration is initiated.
2. Where no party’s claim exceeds $10,000 (exclusive of interest, Attorney Fees, and arbitration costs), the dispute shall be resolved by submission of documents unless the arbitrator determines that an oral hearing is necessary. If an oral hearing is necessary, it will be held in Portland, Oregon. Within 14 days after appointment of the arbitrator, the arbitrator shall schedule a preliminary case management teleconference to establish fair and equitable procedures for the submission and review of documents. The final date for submissions (including any response and replies, if permitted) shall be no later than 120 days after arbitration is initiated.
3. Except where no party’s claim exceeds $10,000 (exclusive of interest, Attorney Fees, and arbitration costs), each party (or each party’s representative if such party is an entity or organization) must appear in-person at the arbitration hearing.
4. Discovery of documents and other tangible things shall be limited to those documents and other tangible things which each party intends to rely on during the arbitration.
5. Documents presumed admissible shall include this Agreement, the applicable sale documents (including the Invoice, Bill of Sale, Statement of Facts, Damage Disclosure Statement, and Power of Attorney), and all emails sent to one party from the other party.
6. It shall not be a requirement for a document to be presumed admissible that the party offering a document has made available, after request, to all other parties all other related documents from the same author or maker.
7. Legal issues (which may be resolved without the need for reliance on factual issues) shall be resolved via summary disposition by the arbitrator prior to the arbitration hearing.
8. At least two business days prior to the hearing, the parties shall exchange copies of all exhibits they intend to submit at the hearing. The arbitrator shall resolve disputes concerning the exchange of exhibits.
9. Unless applicable law provides otherwise, the arbitration may proceed in the absence of any party who fails to appear at the arbitration hearing or fails to submit documents in a dispute to be resolved by the submission of documents. An award may be made solely on the default of a party for failure to appear.
10. If the total and combined relief requested is $100,000 or more (exclusive of interest, Attorney Fees, and arbitration costs), a party may appeal purely legal errors and manifestly erroneous factual findings.

The use of the word "arbitrator" in this provision shall not be construed to prohibit more than one arbitrator from presiding over any arbitration. Rather, ASP rules, as applicable, shall determine the number of arbitrators that may preside over any given arbitration conducted under this Agreement to Arbitrate.

The form for initiating any arbitration proceeding is available on ASP’s website. In addition to filing this form with the arbitration company, you must send, by certified mail, a copy of the completed form to Salvagebid at the following address to initiate arbitration proceedings:

Attn: Legal Department

Portland, OR 97217

Settlement discussions or offers are not admissible to the arbitrator.

G. Costs of Arbitration

Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by arbitration company’s rules, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement to Arbitrate.

H. Severability

With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 9E (Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief) of this Agreement to Arbitrate, if an arbitrator or court decides that any portion of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply. If an arbitrator or court decides that any of the provisions in Section 9E (Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief) of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall be null and void. The remainder of this Agreement (including all other provisions of Section 9 Dispute Resolution) shall continue to apply.

If an arbitrator or court decides that the requirement set forth in Section 9F (Arbitration Procedures) that any arbitration under this Agreement to Arbitration be held as provided above is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply and any arbitration shall instead be held remotely when possible, or as otherwise in accordance with the arbitration company’s rules and policies. Salvagebid may attend by telephone, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.

I. Opt-Out Procedure

J. Judicial Forum for Claims
