The Privacy Policy, all other policies and terms of the Trade-in Agreement (where applicable) are incorporated into this User Agreement. You agree to comply with all of the above when accessing or using our Services.
You are entering into a contract with Orbit4 GmbH, a company registered in Ireland (with company number: 691840) having its registered office at Fuhlsbütteler Weg 30a, 22453 Hamburg, Germany (“WBGE.com” or “we”, “our”, “us”). Any terms and conditions proposed in any document that are different from, conflict with, or add to this User Agreement shall not apply. This User Agreement shall be deemed accepted by the Seller upon your registration on the WBGE.com website (“Platform”).
Seller means the entity that has registered as a user on the Platform with a view to selling pre-used gym equipment via the Platform and may be referred to as “you”, “your” in this User Agreement.
Buyer means the entity that has registered as a user on the Platform in order to view, offer and potentially complete transactions to purchase sellers’ pre-used gym equipment.
About our Services
We provide a marketplace that allows users to offer, sell and buy pre-used gym equipment.
We may review your listings or content, in particular to check compliance with the provisions set out under ’Using our Services’ below. However, we have no control over and do not guarantee the truth or accuracy of any Buyer’s feedback; the ability of Buyers to pay for items; or that a Buyer or Seller will actually complete a transaction. We are not responsible for any fluctuations in exchange rates that may impact the price of the equipment as quoted on our Platform.
The Selling Process & Conditions
- You will follow the registration process on our website, confirm your acceptance of this User Agreement and we will (at our discretion) approve you as a Seller.
- You will upload the equipment that you wish to sell.
- When we receive an offer from a potential Buyer, we will notify you using the contact information provided at registration.
- You may choose to accept or decline the offer.
If you decline the offer, the equipment will continue to be listed as available for sale until you either:
- accept an offer or
- we remove the equipment from our website in accordance with our rights under this User Agreement.
If the equipment listed changes in make, model and/or quantity, you must notify us as soon as possible. We will endeavour to change the listing during a live auction. If the auction has expired, we will approach the highest bidding Buyer and invite them to offer a revised price.
If you accept an offer, you are legally bound to sell the equipment and we will provide you with the WBGE.com Trade-in Agreement which will set out a description of the equipment to be sold (“Equipment”), the price at which you have agreed to sell it and the terms of payment.
The price at which you sell the Equipment shall be inclusive of all VAT (if applicable) and other taxes unless expressly indicated otherwise and based on Ex Works shipping terms unless otherwise agreed.
Title to the Equipment will pass to us on our first instalment payment (or on full payment where instalment payments do not apply) for the Equipment.
Risk of loss or damage to the Equipment will pass to us and then immediately to the Buyer on its collection by the Buyer.
Buyer shall have the right to inspect the Equipment prior to acceptance and collection at your place of business (or other agreed upon collection location). Such inspection may include any measurement, testing, or examination. The Buyer has the right to reject or revoke its acceptance of any equipment which does not strictly conform with its description on the Platform and, if the Buyer elects to so do, without prejudice to our legal rights and remedies, you will immediately refund all payments made by us for such equipment. Title to the equipment will pass back to you upon our receipt of such refund.
You shall ensure that the Equipment is made available at the agreed time, date and location for inspection, testing and collection and time is of the essence in relation to the agreed time and date. You shall promptly notify us and the Buyer in writing of any anticipated delay in the scheduled collection date and we may require you to pay any additional costs attributable to such delay. You shall ensure an authorised representative is available at the agreed time to confirm the Buyer’s assessment of the Equipment. If your representative is not available in accordance with this paragraph, the condition of the Equipment as stated by the Buyer will deemed to be accurate.
You must provide written notice if you intend to make available more or less equipment than that which is identified on the Platform and in the Trade-in Agreement. We may choose to accept or reject any such changes at our discretion.
Warranties and Representations
You represent and warrant that all Equipment purchased, collected and delivered: (a) shall strictly conform to that which is identified in the Platform listing and Trade-in Agreement; (b) shall be merchantable and fit for the purpose for which such Equipment is intended; and (c) shall be free from all defects, including latent defects. In addition to the foregoing express warranties, the Equipment purchased shall be subject to all warranties arising by operation of law.
