Section 5 – Concluding a transaction between users

5.1.         In order to sell or acquire items through the Marketplace, a seller may post an offer of sale on the Marketplace. Upon acceptance of the offer from the buyer, a legally binding contract between the respective seller and buyer is formed.

We are the merchant of record, and we are responsible for assisting with the completion of the transaction which is processed through our payment processor Adyen N.V and/or any other payment service provider(s). We contact the buyer in respect of the transaction process and receive the settlement from the payment processor(s) on behalf of the seller. Following the successful processing of the payment, the ordered item is provided to the buyer via the Steam account. The buyer’s payment account will be charged with reference to the seller, indicating our fees which are deducted from the purchase price as per sections 6 and 7 below.

We bear no responsibility for any currency exchange fluctuations.

6.3.         We offer the function of selling a virtual item via the Instant Sale option.
