This means that We may have received some kind of benefit in return for sharing personal information, but not necessarily a monetary benefit.

Please note that the categories listed below are those defined in the CCPA. This does not mean that all examples of that category of personal information were in fact sold, but reflects our good faith belief to the best of our knowledge that some of that information from the applicable category may be and may have been shared for value in return.

We may sell and may have sold in the last twelve (12) months the following categories of personal information:

  • Category A: Identifiers
  • Category B: Personal information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e))
  • Category D: Commercial information
  • Category F: Internet or other similar network activity

7.6 - Share of Personal Information

We may share Your personal information identified in the above categories with the following categories of third parties:

  • Service Providers
  • Payment processors
  • Our affiliates
  • Our business partners
  • Third party vendors to whom You or Your agents authorize Us to disclose Your personal information in connection with products or services We provide to You

7.7 - Sale of Personal Information of Minors Under 16 Years of Age

We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors under the age of 16 through our Service, although certain third party websites that we link to may do so. These third-party websites have their own terms of use and privacy policies and we encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children's Internet usage and instruct their children to never provide information on other websites without their permission.

We do not sell the personal information of Consumers We actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless We receive affirmative authorization (the "right to opt-in") from either the Consumer who is between 13 and 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a Consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to the sale of personal information may opt-out of future sales at any time. To exercise the right to opt-out, You (or Your authorized representative) may submit a request to Us by contacting Us.

If You have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 (or 16) has provided Us with personal information, please contact Us with sufficient detail to enable Us to delete that information.

7.8 - Your Rights under the CCPA

3.1 - The Role of Prestigier

3.1.1 - Prestigier's Purpose

At Prestigier, our primary role is to create and maintain a dynamic and secure online platform that facilitates interactions between Sellers, Buyers, and Users. We want to emphasize that we act solely as an intermediary and not as an agent or fiduciary for any Seller, Buyer, or User. While we take great care in ensuring the availability and smooth functioning of the Platform, we are not responsible for the actual sale of any Item, nor do we exercise control over the information provided by Sellers, Buyers, or Users, or their actions and omissions. It's important to understand that Prestigier operates independently from Sellers, Buyers, and Users, and the use of this Platform does not establish any partnership, joint venture, employee-employer, or franchiser-franchisee relationship with Prestigier.

In certain situations, Prestigier may, at its discretion, offer intermediary services to assist with customer service or dispute resolution matters between the Buyer and Seller. However, please note that this is not an obligation on our part. If we choose to provide these services, any decisions made by Prestigier in this capacity shall be final and binding upon all parties involved. Such decisions cannot be appealed, challenged, or reversed unless a competent court renders a judgment.
Our commitment is to maintain a fair and transparent platform that benefits both Sellers and Buyers alike, without assuming an active role in their individual transactions.

We are ready to comply with local regulations in that matter (Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), EU Copyright Directive, ...).

7 - Orders of Goods

By placing an Order for Goods through the Service, You warrant that You are legally capable of entering into binding contracts.

7.1 - Relationship of the Parties

7.1.1 - Seller's Obligations

The Seller holds full responsibility for providing accurate descriptions and appropriate pricing of the Items they list for sale on our platform. Additionally, it is the Seller's duty to ensure the proper delivery of the Items to the Buyer in accordance with the mutually agreed-upon arrangements. This includes the transfer of title and the fulfillment of any necessary obligations such as the payment of sales tax, VAT, or import/export duties to the relevant authority.

7.1.2 - Buyer's Obligations

As a Buyer, you bear the sole responsibility for assessing the value, condition, and authenticity of the Items you intend to purchase. It is your duty to complete the payment of the purchase price to the Seller, which includes any applicable sales tax, VAT, or import/export duties. Moreover, arranging for the shipping of the purchased Items is also within your responsibilities.

7.1.3 - Prestigier's Limited Role

We want to reiterate that Prestigier's role, as outlined in Clause 3.1 above, is strictly limited to acting as an intermediary and facilitator on our platform. We rely on the information provided by the Sellers regarding their listed Items, and we are not accountable for the accuracy of the descriptions or pricing of the Items on the Platform. The responsibility for such information lies solely with the Seller.

Moreover, Prestigier does not take any responsibility for the delivery or transfer of legal ownership of the Items from the Seller to you, the Buyer. Any payment transactions between you and the Seller occur outside of our control, unless we explicitly agree otherwise in specific cases.

In summary, Prestigier's role is focused on providing a secure and reliable platform for facilitating transactions between Buyers and Sellers, and we are not liable for the actions or obligations that pertain to the individual Buyer-Seller relationship.

7.2 - Your Information as Buyer

If You wish to place an Order for Goods available on the Service, You may be asked to supply certain information relevant to Your Order including, without limitation, Your name, Your email, Your phone number, Your credit card number, the expiration date of Your credit card, Your billing address, and Your shipping information.

You represent and warrant that: (i) You have the legal right to use any credit or debit card(s) or other payment method(s) in connection with any Order; and that (ii) the information You supply to us is true, correct, and complete.

By submitting such information, You grant us the right to provide the information to payment processing third parties for purposes of facilitating the completion of Your Order.

7.3 - Availability, Errors, and Inaccuracies

7.3.1 - Item Availability

We wish to highlight that all Items displayed on our Platform are offered for sale subject to their availability. As the platform hosts unique Items from various Sellers, there may be cases where certain Items become unavailable due to their distinctive nature or because Sellers have alternative retail opportunities for those Items independent from Prestigier.

7.3.2 - Item Availability

Our Platform is designed to showcase Items as presented by the respective Sellers. It's important for Buyers to be aware that, unless explicitly stated otherwise, the Items available on the platform may not be brand new or in pristine condition. Some Items might require touch-ups or repairs before use, and the available information about certain Items may be limited. As a result, Prestigier does not verify the information provided by the Seller or their representatives regarding an Item, and we do not make any representations or warranties concerning the Seller, the Item, or the related information. We cannot and do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information, including prices, product images, specifications, availability, and services. We reserve the right to change or update information and to correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time without prior notice.

Our platform aims to offer a diverse selection of unique Items, and while we strive to ensure accuracy and reliability, the final responsibility for assessing an Item's condition and suitability for purchase lies with the Buyer. We encourage Buyers to exercise due diligence and, if necessary, seek additional information directly from the Seller before making a purchase decision.

Please keep in mind that the nature of these unique Items means that availability and condition may vary, and Prestigier does not assume responsibility for discrepancies that may arise during the buying process.

7.4 - Prices Policy

The Company or Operator and Seller reserve the right to revise their prices at any time prior to accepting an Order.

The prices quoted may be revised by the Company or Operator subsequent to accepting an Order in the event of any occurrence affecting delivery caused by government action, variation in customs duties, increased shipping charges, higher foreign exchange costs, and any other matter beyond the control of the Company or Operator or the Seller. In that event, You will have the right to cancel Your Order.

7.5 - Payments

Payment can be made through various payment methods we have available. We rely on payment gateways that have their own terms of service and their own limitations.

Payment cards (credit cards or debit cards) are subject to validation checks and authorization by Your card issuer. If we do not receive the required authorization, We will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery of Your Order.

7.6 - Service Fees

We may charge You some fees (and applicable Taxes) for the right to use the Service. More information about when service fees apply and how they are calculated is displayed during your Order. We reserve the right to change the service fees at any time.

7.7 - Order Modification

You and the Sellers are responsible for any Order modifications you agree to make via the Service and agree to pay any additional amounts, fees, or taxes associated with any Order modification.

7.8 - Order Cancellation

7.8.1 - Our Order Cancellation Rights

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel Your Order at any time for certain reasons including but not limited to:

  • Goods availability
  • Errors in the description or prices for Goods
  • Errors in Your Order
  • Mistakes from the Seller

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel Your Order if fraud or an unauthorized or illegal transaction or trade is suspected.

Receipt of your order will be confirmed via an automatic e-mail to the e-mail address associated with your account. Such e-mail is a confirmation that your order has been received but does not constitute acceptance of your order.  We reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or not accept your order for any reason and will contact you at the e-mail address provided at checkout with our decision to accept or not accept your order. 

In the event that your order is not accepted or cancelled, we will have no obligation to fulfill it and you will have no obligation to pay us for the order.  If payment for your order was properly processed at the time of placing your order, in the event we cancel your order, we will refund to your form of payment the amount charged for the cancelled order.

7.8.2 - Order Cancellation by Buyers

If You as a Buyer cancel an Order, the amount You paid (including the Service fees) is not refunded.

If something outside Your control requires You to cancel an Order, or if You think your Order should be refunded, contact Us.

7.8.3 - Remedies for Non-payment

Buyer's Liability: In the event that the Buyer cancels a payment made for the Total Purchase Price following receipt of the Order Confirmation or fails to make any payment related to the Total Purchase Price ("Default"), the Buyer shall remain fully liable to the Seller for the entire Total Purchase Price. Additionally, the Buyer will be responsible for covering any supplementary costs associated with the sale of the Item. These additional costs may include, but are not limited to, applicable taxes, storage and handling fees, as well as any expenses or fees incurred during the collection process for amounts due to Prestigier and/or the Seller, including legal fees and costs related to currency fluctuations.

Prestigier's Rights: While Prestigier upholds the rights and interests of both Buyers and Sellers, we also recognize the importance of maintaining a fair and stable marketplace. Therefore, without limiting any other provisions in these Terms, we reserve the right, at our discretion, to retain any and all payments previously made by the Buyer for the Item in question as liquidated damages. In such circumstances, Prestigier may also choose to cancel the sale of the Item, absolving Prestigier from any further obligations to the Buyer.

Please note that we view payment defaults seriously, and taking such measures is essential to protect the interests of both Sellers and the integrity of our platform. We encourage Buyers to fulfill their payment obligations promptly to ensure a smooth and satisfactory transaction experience.

7.9 - Order Dispute

If a Buyer or a Seller disputes an Order, the Company or Operator should be notified. The dispute will be resolved at Our sole discretion.

7.10 - The Purchase Process

7.10.1 - Making an Offer

When a Buyer identifies an Item for purchase, they have the option to make an offer ("Offer") directly through the Platform's checkout page or by contacting Prestigier through the methods listed on the Platform. By making an Offer, the Buyer agrees to submit valid payment information to Prestigier for the payment of the Total Purchase Price. The "Total Purchase Price" includes (i) the final agreed-upon price of the Item ("Purchase Price"), (ii) any applicable shipping fees, and (iii) any relevant sales tax, use tax, VAT, internet sales tax, or other taxes or levies required by applicable law at the time of sale. By making an Offer, the Buyer commits to paying the Total Purchase Price, and unless a counter-offer is made, the Seller agrees to sell the Item to the Buyer for the Total Purchase Price.

7.10.2 - Negotiable Prices

If a Seller indicates that the price of an Item is negotiable, the Buyer may present an Offer through the Platform at an alternative price of their choice or inquire via the telephone number provided on the Platform. Phone calls related to such negotiations may be recorded by Prestigier for transaction logging, training, and quality assurance purposes.

7.10.3 - Offer and Counter-Offer Process

An Offer made by a Buyer cannot be canceled or revoked unless the Total Purchase Price has not been fully confirmed by both the Buyer and the Seller (e.g., due to unknown shipping fees at the time of Offer placement, subject to any statutory rights the Buyer may have). The Seller may choose to (i) accept the Offer, (ii) decline the Offer, or (iii) propose a Counter-Offer to the Buyer. When making a Counter-Offer, the Seller agrees to sell the Item to the Buyer at the Counter-Offer price, provided the Buyer accepts it, and subject to any additional conditions specified in the Counter-Offer. Offers may have time limits set by any party involved, and all parties acknowledge that the Offer will expire at the end of the offer period. If the Buyer agrees to pay the Counter-Offer price, they can confirm acceptance either through the "My Offers" page of their Prestigier account or by confirming over the telephone.

7.10.4 - Order Confirmation

Once the Seller accepts and confirms the Buyer's Offer, or the Buyer acknowledges, accepts, and confirms the Seller's Counter-Offer, a confirmation of sale called the "Order Confirmation" will be posted to the "offer status section" page of the Buyer's Prestigier account. At this point, a binding contract between the Seller and the Buyer is established, and it becomes enforceable concerning the sale and purchase of the Item.

7.10.5 - Reserve Amount

In specific cases, the Buyer may be required to post a "Reserve Amount" to support an Offer. This Reserve Amount is authorized to Prestigier by credit card at the time of Offer placement and is credited against the Total Purchase Price due. If the Buyer and Seller cannot agree on the Total Purchase Price or other material terms of the transaction, Prestigier will credit the Reserve Amount back to the Buyer's credit card account.

7.10.6 - Deposits for Custom-Made Orders

For custom-made orders, the Buyer may be asked to pay a non-refundable "Deposit" amount upon placing an Offer. This Deposit, paid via credit card or other acceptable payment methods, will be held by the Seller and credited against the Total Purchase Price.

7.10.7 - Error Resolution

In the event of an error concerning the availability of the Item, acceptance of an Offer or Counter-Offer, or any other error on the part of the Seller or Prestigier, both the Seller and/or Prestigier reserve the right, at their sole and absolute discretion, to rescind the Order Confirmation and the purchase of the Item without any penalty to any party.

7.10.8 - Inaccuracies and Corrections

Due to the nature of the internet, occasional glitches, service interruptions, or mistakes may lead to unintended inaccuracies appearing on the Platform. Prestigier retains the right to correct any inaccuracies or mistakes and to void any purchase of an Item that displays an inaccurate price or description upon being brought to our attention.

7.11 - Offers to Purchase Outside of the Platform

7.11.1 - Prohibition on Off-Platform Offers

Both Sellers and Buyers are strictly prohibited from using Prestigier or the Platform to contact each other for the purpose of making offers to buy or sell an Item outside of the methods provided by the Platform. Furthermore, Sellers and Buyers are not allowed to utilize information obtained from the Platform to communicate with each other about buying or selling any Item available for sale on the Platform outside of the designated methods provided by the Platform.

7.11.2 - Consequences of Breach

In the event that a Buyer attempts to breach these guidelines, Prestigier may take appropriate action, which could include limiting, restricting, or suspending the Buyer's use of any features on the Platform. Additionally, the Buyer may forfeit any special account status and/or discount rates they might have. Moreover, the Buyer may be subject to fees and the recovery of expenses incurred by Prestigier in policy monitoring and enforcement.

7.12 - Payment for Purchased Items

7.12.1 - Payment upon Order Confirmation

Upon receiving the Order Confirmation, the Buyer is required to remit an amount equivalent to the full Total Purchase Price (100%). If the Buyer had previously posted a Reserve Amount or a Deposit for the Item with Prestigier, the Reserve Amount or Deposit shall be credited towards the Total Purchase Price, and the Buyer will need to remit the remaining balance.

7.12.2 - Authorization for Payment

By the Order Confirmation, the Buyer authorizes Prestigier to charge the Buyer's credit card or other designated payment methods for an amount equal to the Total Purchase Price.

7.13 - Shipping

7.13.1 - Buyer-Arranged Shipping

The Buyer has the freedom to arrange their own shipping and may choose any shipping company they prefer. The Buyer's selected crating, shipping, and insurance companies act as the Buyer's agents, and the Buyer will bear all relevant costs, paying them directly to the agents. Alternatively, the Buyer can opt to have Prestigier arrange shipping on their behalf, subject to any pre-advertised shipping prices.

7.13.2 - Seller-Arranged Shipping

If the Buyer chooses, the Seller can handle crating, packaging, shipping, and freight insurance. The Seller will provide shipping information, including the freight carrier's name, the complete cost of shipment from the Seller to the Buyer's designated receiving address, any duty or other charges payable by the Buyer, the cost of freight insurance, the insurance provider's name, and any costs or fees for crating or packaging the Items for shipment. Both the Buyer and Seller must mutually agree on shipment terms, and the Buyer shall prepay all shipping costs.

7.13.3 - Free Shipping

Some Items may be eligible for free shipping, as indicated in the Item description. Any offers of free shipping may be subject to limitations and exceptions noted at the time of the offer. In cases where free shipping is available, all other terms of this User Agreement and Conditions of Sale remain applicable. Prestigier reserves the right to cancel or modify any offer for free shipping at any time without prior notice.

7.13.4 - Shipping Error Correction

If an error occurs in calculating shipping, Prestigier reserves the right to correct or cancel the transaction as necessary.

7.14 -  Import/Export Restrictions.

7.14.1 - Permits and Preemption Rights

Certain Items available for sale on the Platform may require cultural, customs, and regulated species permits for export from the country where they are located and/or import into the Buyer's country. Additionally, Items may be subject to preemption rights, granting the country from which they are exported the option to purchase the Items from the Buyer. Neither the Seller nor Prestigier guarantees the availability or issuance of valid export or import permits, nor do they make any representations or warranties regarding the necessity for such permits or the existence and exercise of preemption rights by governmental or regulatory authorities.

7.14.2 - Rescission Right

If an Item's listing on the Platform states that it requires a special permit, or if such a requirement is disclosed after the Order Confirmation but before the shipper picks up the Item, or if the Buyer learns about the need for an export permit after the Item has been picked up by the shipper, and the Seller is unable to obtain the export permit within thirty (30) days after confirmation of the sale or disclosure of the requirement, the Buyer may rescind the sale by providing written notice to Prestigier and the Seller within seven (7) business days after the applicable thirty (30) day period expires. However, the Buyer's right to rescind a sale is limited to within ninety (90) days after the date of the sale.

7.14.3 - Rescission Procedure

If the sale is rescinded, the Buyer shall return the Item to the Seller at the Buyer's cost unless otherwise agreed. Upon the return of the Item, Prestigier and/or the Seller shall refund the Total Purchase Price. This limited right of rescission is non-transferable and solely belongs to the Buyer of record.

7.15 - Transfer of Title/Risk of Loss.

7.15.1 - Seller's Representations

The Seller of each Item offered for sale on the Platform represents and warrants that they are the sole owner of the Item or are duly authorized by the owner to sell it. The Seller also assures that they will convey good and marketable title of the Item to the Buyer following payment of the Total Purchase Price, free from any ownership claims by third parties.

7.15.2 - Title Conveyance

If the Seller requested that Prestigier collect and remit the Total Purchase Price, the Seller will convey good and marketable title to the Item upon the Buyer's receipt of the Order Confirmation and Prestigier's receipt of the Total Purchase Price.

7.15.3 - Risk of Loss and Title - Buyer-Arranged Shipping

In cases where the Buyer arranges the shipping, the risk of loss and title for the Item passes to the Buyer upon the Seller's delivery of the Item to the carrier selected by the Buyer for shipment or when the Buyer physically picks up the Item from the Seller.

7.15.4 - Risk of Loss and Title - Seller-Arranged Shipping:

If the Seller arranges shipping, the risk of loss and title for the Item passes to the Buyer upon the Buyer's receipt of the Item.

Marketplace Tax Collection

Last updated: November 1st, 2022.

A Marketplace Facilitator is defined as a marketplace that contracts with third party sellers to promote their sale of physical property, digital goods, and services through the marketplace. As a result, Prestigier is deemed to be a marketplace facilitator for third party sales facilitated through Prestigier's global marketplaces. Therefore, Prestigier has responsibility in some states for collection of sales tax on sales facilitated on its platform. Sellers who sell directly outside of the platform or who sell into states where Prestigier does not have an obligation to collect sales tax may still be liable for the tax on those sales.

Marketplace Facilitator legislation is a set of laws that shifts the sales tax collection and remittance obligations from a third party seller to the marketplace facilitator. As the marketplace facilitator, Prestigier will now be responsible for calculating, collecting, remitting, and refunding state sales tax on sales made by third party sellers for transactions destined to states where Marketplace Facilitator and/or Marketplace Collection legislation is enacted. In certain states, local taxes are not included in the Marketplace Facilitator legislation; Prestigier is not responsible for those taxes. 

The Prestigier Marketplace Tax Collection Policy is incorporated into and forms part of the Prestigier Terms of Service. You agree that the term “Seller” is given the same meaning as in the Terms of Service. 

Each Seller shall remain liable for sales tax on its sales in the jurisdictions where Prestigier does not collect sales tax and agrees to comply with all required sales tax rules in all relevant jurisdictions.  Each Seller shall reimburse Prestigier for any damages resulting from his, her or its failure to collect and remit sales tax in any jurisdiction where such Seller is required to do so by law.

1 - Fraud awareness

Please be aware that cybercrime is on the increase specifically affecting email accounts and bank account details. Prestigier will not change its bank transfer information, or request your credit card or bank account number via email or text message. Any advice of amended bank details that appear to come from Prestigier by email or text should be ignored. There is also an increase in the number of scammers fraudulently claiming to be Prestigier employees and agents and asking for payment, such as for valuation and “security deposit” for sale proceeds.

If you receive an email or other communication purporting to be from Prestigier or any of our personnel and you have doubts or concerns about the origin of the communication, before taking any action please contact us immediately to confirm its legitimacy. If you have any questions about how to make payment for purchases you have made from us, please get in touch with your Prestigier relationship manager. Prestigier will not be liable if you transfer money to an incorrect or fraudulent bank account.
