Complete access to Our website is reserved for "clients/customers" of Hein's Rare Collectibles who have established a business relationship and/or completed a successful transaction with Hein's Rare Collectibles. We reserve the right to refuse any entity from becoming a member of our community of users for any reason we deem appropriate. It is our goal to provide the "safest environment" for collectors to order some of World's Finest Rare Beatles Autographs, Records, Memorabilia and Collectibles over the internet.
Membership Rules Purchasing and Consigning merchandise on Our website is available only to, and may only be used by individuals who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, the services we offer are not available to children (persons under the age of 18). If you are under the age of 18, you can use our services only in conjunction with, and under the supervision of your parent(s) or legal guardian(s). If you do not qualify, please do not use Our website. Furthermore, your Beatles4me.com account and/or User ID may not be placed on loan, transferred or sold to another party in any manner. If you are registering as a business entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind the entity to this Agreement. Should your email address change and you wish to have your User ID updated, upon verification using your password and other methods of validation available to us, your information will be updated, new User ID assigned, and account remain activated. In cases where the email address is no longer valid and there is no successful attempt to have the account updated, the account will then be closed and deleted from our files. If any misuse in ANY manner is detected of a registered member on Our website, that member (person and/or business) will be "permanently banned forever" from ever using/accessing Our website services.
Fees and Services Browsing through "informative areas" within Beatles4me.com is free. We may in our sole discretion change some or all of our services and policies at any time. In the event we introduce a new service, the fees for that service are effective at the launch of the service. Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars. You are responsible for paying all fees associated with using our service and Our website and all taxes where applicable. Complete access to Our website is reserved for "clients/customers" of Hein's Rare Collectibles who have established a business relationship and/or completed a successful transaction with Hein's Rare Collectibles. For a limited time during the initial development phase of Our website, complete free access may be granted to all users without requiring any registration.
Buying Rules and ObligationsAs a buyer, you are obligated to complete the transaction with Hein's Rare Collectibles or face the possibility of having your full access membership removed indefinitely. By placing an order on an item, you agree to be bound by the conditions of sale included in the item's description so long as those conditions of sale are not in violation of this Agreement or unlawful. Unless you and Hein's Rare Collectibles agree otherwise, you will become the item's lawful owner upon physical receipt of the item from us in accordance with local laws covering such transactions. Placed orders are not retractable except in exceptional circumstances, such as: when Hein's Rare Collectibles materially changes the item's description after you have made an inquiry to purchase the merchandise, or a clear typographical error is made in the description.
Deposits and Reserved Items
All items that are reserved with a deposit are considered "SOLD" to the purchaser, and it is the purchaser's contractual legal obligation to pay off the balance in full to Hein's Rare Collectibles by the mutually agreed deadline. In this situation involving a "deposit" made by you the purchaser, you become the item's pending lawful owner upon deposit made with the complete understanding that the item(s) will remain in the possession of Hein's Rare Collectibles until the balance due is paid off in full or the deadline has passed. If it is determined that the balance is NOT going to be paid off under any circumstance after the mutually agreed deadline has passed, it will be at the sole discretion of Hein's Rare Collectibles to decide which parts (if ANY) of the order will be shipped (in the case of a group of items being reserved) and/or whether a PARTIAL or FULL CREDIT toward OTHER PURCHASES from our current inventory will be granted. Again, it is at the sole discretion of Hein's Rare Collectibles to decide which of the RESERVED ITEMS will be "part" of the purchase as determined by the total amount of deposit made, and any residual monies that may be left-over once a decision has been made, will be refunded to the purchaser ONLY in the form as a CREDIT toward our current inventory. There will be NO EXCEPTIONS to this rule unless made in writing between Hein's Rare Collectibles and you the purchaser.
Consigning Rules and Obligations
You must be legally able to sell the item(s) you consign to us to list for sale on Our website. If we receive a valid offer to buy your item at your stated price, you are obligated to complete the transaction through us with the buyer, unless there is an exceptional circumstance, such as the buyer fails to meet the terms of the listing (such as payment method). The "consigning percentage" that will be charged varies from item to item, and will be agreed upon in a separate and "optionally" private agreement drawn up between Hein's Rare Collectibles (the "consignee) and you (the "consignor").
Your Personal Information"Your Personal Information" is defined as any information you provide to us in the registration process. Hein's Rare Collectibles will only use Your Personal Information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
Breach of AgreementWithout limiting other remedies, we may indefinitely terminate your membership and refuse to provide our services to you if: (a) you breach this Agreement or the documents it incorporates by reference; (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. Breach of Agreement with regard to DEPOSITS made on items being RESERVED for you will result in possible indefinite termination of use of our website and services, in addition to the sole decision of Hein's Rare Collectibles to decide which (if ANY) reserved items will be shipped with the remaining balance ONLY given to you the purchaser in the form of a CREDIT on our current inventory.
