Legal

Terms of Service

Plain-language rules for buying, selling and getting along on autoshoppe.

Using autoshoppe

  • You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to buy and sell vehicles and parts where you live.
  • One account per person. Keep your login details private — you're responsible for activity on your account.
  • autoshoppe is a marketplace between private parties. We are not the seller, buyer, escrow agent, or shipper of anything listed here.

Listings and content

  • Only list items you actually own and can legally sell. Describe condition, mileage, damage, title status and fitment honestly.
  • Use your own photos of the actual item. Stock or borrowed photos without disclosure will be removed.
  • Prohibited: stolen goods, salvage misrepresented as clean, emissions-defeat devices where illegal, counterfeit parts, airbags and pyrotechnic components sold outside legal channels, and anything you can't legally ship.
  • You keep ownership of your content, and grant autoshoppe a licence to display and promote it on the platform.

Deals, payments and fees

  • Price, payment method, inspection and handover are agreed directly between buyer and seller. autoshoppe is for local pickup and does not provide shipping or process payments for sales; any shipping is arranged between buyer and seller.
  • Never wire money to someone you haven't verified. Follow the guidance in our Safety Center.
  • Browsing, listing and messaging are free during the demo period. If paid promotion is introduced, prices and terms will be shown before you buy.

Conduct

  • No harassment, threats, hate speech, doxxing, or repeated unwanted contact.
  • No scams, fake reviews, reputation manipulation, scraping, or automated bulk posting.
  • Report bad behaviour with the Report button on any profile or listing. You can also block a user to stop all contact from them.

Reputation and reviews

  • Reviews are tied to completed transactions and are not editable on request.
  • We remove reviews that contain personal data, hate speech, or are proven to be retaliation or manipulation.

Suspension and termination

  • We may remove listings or suspend accounts that break these terms, mislead buyers, or put the community at risk.
  • You can close your account any time from Settings. Verified reviews you left stay on the other party's profile, without your name.

Liability

  • autoshoppe is provided as-is. We don't guarantee the accuracy of listings, the condition of items, or the conduct of other users.
  • To the extent allowed by law, autoshoppe is not liable for losses arising from transactions between users.

Changes to these terms

  • We'll post material changes on this page and update the date below. Continuing to use autoshoppe means you accept the updated terms.
