There are two very important considerations that you should be aware of
before listing items on eBay Motors in a Vehicle Listing Assistant (Trading
Assistant or eBay Motors Dealer Assistant) capacity.
A. Legal Considerations
All Vehicle Listing Assistants are welcome to list items for sale on eBay
Motors, but should review in detail information provided on our site about
legal considerations
for Trading Assistants. As is explained there, Vehicle Listing Assistants
are responsible for evaluating all local laws relating to proxy selling
on eBay for others and all laws applicable to the sale of automobiles and
other regulated items. Whenever required by law, Vehicle Listing Assistants
must first become licensed as a broker or dealer, assume obligations to
inspect or make disclosures about the condition of the items, and comply
with other legal requirements when selling these types of items for clients.
Please be aware that involvement in a motor vehicle sale (especially
across state lines) may carry higher legal liability than selling other
merchandise on eBay! eBay Motors highly recommends that you check with
your state Department of Transportation (DOT) to understand licensing and
liability issues before engaging in Vehicle Listing Assistant activities.
To learn more about your state's rules, you can link to your state DOT
from the following page: http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/webstate.htm
B. eBay Motors Vehicle Listing Assistant Rules
Vehicle Listing Assistants who list vehicles on our site must also comply
with the following eBay Motors specific guidelines:
Vehicle Listing Assistants who are not licensed as a motor vehicle
sales dealer must not list vehicles for sale under their own User ID, must
not charge a fee for services based upon a percentage of sales price, and
must not interact with bidders or filter or otherwise control the flow
of information between bidders and the owner of the vehicle.
Thank you for paying attention to these very important considerations
that will help you to have a favorable experience on eBay Motors. We wish
you success as a Vehicle Listing Assistant on eBay Motors!
Trading Assistants and Dealer Assistants are neither employees
nor independent contractors of eBay Inc.
