Terms and Conditions



Trading Circuit, a Circuit City business, sells products including Shelf Pulls, Overstocks, Excess Inventory, Customer Returns and Buy Backs by the piece, case, small wholesale lot, pallet, and truckload. At Trading Circuit, there is no middle-man to be paid and our prices reflect that fact. We sell products that come back to us directly there are no brokers involved and no broker markups.

All products are sold “as is, where is”, with no warranties or guaranties of any kind including secondary merchantability or any other purpose and with all existing faults. Trading Circuit cannot guarantee condition or quality specifications for any of the products available for sale. There are clear risks to buying salvage and returns. We do not assume any responsibilities to those that experience losses of any kind as a result of purchasing these described Salvage and Returned goods. Our experiences with the percentage of damaged or defective goods versus new and working goods vary greatly. Any verbal or written correspondence regarding the possibilities of working versus non-working percentages is an absolute estimation. We do not guarantee nor give information leading to the belief that the goods we sell are problem and damage free. Please keep in mind that we are in this for the long haul, and maintaining a high number of loyal customers is our goal - if you cannot make money with our products then you will not re-order from us. Our objective is to make our loads as profitable as possible to you so that you may keep coming back for more.

All customers must be pre-qualified and approved by Trading Circuit to participate in our sales on Private Marketplace. A contract outlining general agreements between buyer and seller will be sent upon request to a prospective buyer upon request.

8. Term and Termination.

a. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue in effect until terminated as provided herein.

b. This Agreement may be terminated with or without cause by either party without liability or obligation upon not less than sixty (60) days notice to the other party. c. Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately, without liability or further obligation, upon notice to the other party if the other party (i) breaches any term of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within ten (10) business days following receipt of notice of such breach, (ii) becomes insolvent, files (or has filed against it) a petition in bankruptcy, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or ceases normal business operations, or (iii) assigns or attempts to assign this Agreement or any of the rights and obligations hereunder without first obtaining consent as required herein.

Purchaser shall be solely responsible for any taxes, duties or other payments due with regard to compliance with such applicable laws.

10. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable to the other party for failure or delay in performance hereunder due in whole or in part to an act of God, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, civil commotion, sabotage, fire, flood, explosion, acts of any government, unforeseen shortages or unavailability of fuel, power, transportation, or supplies, and any other causes which are not within such party's reasonable control, whether or not of the kind specifically enumerated above. In such event and at the option of the other party, the period of performance for such party may be extended for a period of time equal to the interruption or delay.

11. Confidentiality. a. During the course of performance of this Agreement, a party and/or its affiliates (the "Disclosing Party") may share with the other party (the "Receiving Party") certain documents and information, including, but not limited to, information pertaining to products, business practices, schedules, services, methods, data, processes, and operating procedures which the Disclosing Party considers to be, and treats as, confidential ("Confidential Information"), whether or not specifically identified as such. The Receiving Party shall maintain the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information, in confidence, shall protect it with the same degree of care which it uses to protect its own Confidential Information (which shall be not less than reasonable care), shall not disclose it to any third party and shall use it for the sole purpose of performing under this Agreement. At the conclusion of the Agreement, the Receiving Party shall either return the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information in its possession (including all copies) or shall, at the Disclosing Party's direction, destroy the Receiving Party's Confidential Information (including all copies) and certify its destruction to the Disclosing Party. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "Confidential Information" shall not include any information which: (a) is in the public domain at the time of disclosure or enters the public domain following disclosure through no fault of the Receiving Party; (b) the Receiving Party can demonstrate was already in its possession prior to disclosure hereunder or is subsequently disclosed to the Receiving Party with no obligation of confidentiality by a third party having the right to disclose it; or (c) is independently developed by the receiving party without reference to the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information, provided that the Receiving Party can clearly demonstrate such independent development through contemporaneous records showing such development. The Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information upon the order of any court of competent jurisdiction or as otherwise required by law or legal process, provided that prior to such disclosure the Receiving Party shall inform the Disclosing Party of such order if permitted by law, in order to provide the Disclosing Party with an opportunity to contest such order or to seek such other protective action as the Disclosing Party may elect. Neither party shall issue any press release regarding this Agreement or otherwise disclose the relationship of the parties hereunder without the other party's prior written approval. In the event of a violation of the terms of this Section 11, because of the unique nature of the Confidential Information, the Disclosing Party would suffer irreparable harm, and money damages and other remedies at law available in the event of a breach or a threatened breach would not be adequate to compensate for the harm caused by the breach or the threatened breach. Accordingly, in addition to any other remedies it may have hereunder or at law or in equity, the Disclosing Party shall have the right to obtain injunctive relief for violation of the terms of this Section 11.

b. The terms of this Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever.

12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall be a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties. Upon acceptance, it will supersede all prior agreements, written or oral. No course of prior dealing between the parties and no usage of trade shall be relevant to supplement or explain any term used in this Agreement.

13. Authority of Circuit City's Agents. No agent, employee or representative of Circuit City has any authority to bind Circuit City to any representation or warranty concerning the Merchandise and, unless any representation or warranty made by an agent, employee or representative is specifically included within this Agreement, it is not part of the basis of the agreement and shall not be enforceable against Circuit City.

14. Modifications. This Agreement can be modified or rescinded only by a writing signed by both parties or their duly authorized agents.

15. Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the written consent of the other.

16. Binding Effect. This Agreement is binding on the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

17. Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be held to be void, invalid or illegal by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity and enforceability of the other provisions shall not be affected thereby.

18. Independent Contractor. It is specifically agreed and understood that Purchaser is an independent contractor and not an agent of Circuit City.

19. Applicable Law. This Agreement is made in and intended to be performed in and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Any dispute arising hereunder shall be adjudicated in a court of competent jurisdiction located in the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States of America.

20. Waiver. Neither party shall be deemed to have waived any right, power, privilege or remedy unless such waiver is in writing and duly executed by it. No failure to exercise, delay in exercising or course of dealing with respect to any right, power, privilege or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof by either party or of any other right, power, privilege or remedy. No exercise or partial exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof by either party or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy by such party.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed in duplicate, each to have the full force and effect of an original, by their duly authorized representatives all as of the Effective Date.
