These Terms and Conditions of Use, our Marketplace FAQs (the “FAQS”), and all other requirements posted on our websites, all of which are incorporated into these Terms and Conditions of Use by reference and as amended from time to time (collectively, “Terms”) describe the terms and conditions on which we provide our websites (the “Sites”), services, data, software, applications (including mobile applications) and tools (collectively “Services”) to you, whether as a guest or a registered user. Not all FAQs may be applicable to the German market.
- In these Terms, “you” and “your” refer to (a) you, the individual accessing and/or using the Services, (b) any electronic agent accessing the Sites and/or using the Services on behalf of an individual or business entity, and (c) the business entity on whose behalf an individual or electronic agent is accessing the Sites and/or using the Services.
- Your use of the Sites and Services will be subject to these Terms and by using them you agree to be bound by them. These Terms create a legal contract between you and us. Please read them carefully. We will collect and process personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy https://stockx.com/privacy.
- By using our Sites and Services, or by clicking to accept these Terms, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms in full. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use our Sites or any portion of the Services. For all purposes, the English version of the Terms shall be the original, binding instrument and understanding of the parties. In the event of any conflict between the English version of the Terms and any translation into any other language, the English version shall prevail and control.
2. Changes to Terms and Policies.
2.1. StockX may in our discretion change these Terms (including the FAQs or any policy) at any time, but if we do, we will place a notice on our Site. We may also send you an email and/or notify you by some other means. Changes take effect on the date set out in the Terms. Unless required by law to amend the Terms with immediate effect, StockX will, where applicable, provide sellers with at least 15 days’ notice of any changes which affect them. You should view these Terms often to stay informed of any changes that may affect you. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF THE SITE AND/OR SERVICES AFTER WE CHANGE THESE TERMS CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGES.

2.2. The version of these Terms posted on our Sites on each respective date you visit the Sites will be the Terms applicable to your access and use of the Services on that date. Our electronically or otherwise properly stored copies of these Terms and the Privacy Policy shall be deemed to be the true, complete, valid, and authentic copies of the version of the Terms and the Privacy Policy that were in force on each respective date you visited the Sites.

Chapter 2: Terms of Use of StockX Live Marketplace
The terms and conditions in this Chapter 2 apply for sellers and buyers likewise and provide for the terms of use of the StockX Live Marketplace.
3. About StockX Live Marketplace.
3.1. The Site and Services are intended for use only by persons who are at least 18 years of age. By using the Site and Services you confirm that you meet this requirement and that, if you are under the age of 18, you have received permission from your parent or guardian before using the Site and Services.
3.2. StockX allows third party sellers to list and sell their products in a live marketplace on the Site and Services. A seller is a party that lists and sells a product to StockX, and a buyer is a party that buys a product from StockX using the Services. Sellers’ products will be made available for sale on all of our Sites and mobile applications. Buyers and sellers must create an account to purchase or sell items on the StockX platform (see Section 4). Buyers and sellers can delete or deactivate their account by following the options available on our FAQ page, as applicable to sellers and buyers in Germany and as updated from time to time.
- Matching: Buyer may place bids, and seller may place asks on the platform for specific items. If a seller uses the StockX platform to place an item for a fixed or minimum price which matches a buyer’s bid, the seller makes a binding offer with StockX to conclude a contract for this item at this fixed or minimum price. If a buyer uses the StockX platform to place a bid offering a fixed or maximum price for a specific item which matches a seller’s ask, the buyer makes a binding offer with StockX to conclude a contract for this item at this fixed or maximum price.
- Buy now: The seller may also activate the “buy now” function. If the buyer uses the “buy now” feature, which will attempt to automatically match a buyer with a seller at the lowest overall ask price, the buyer makes a binding offer with StockX to conclude a contract for this item at this lowest overall ask price. the contract will be concluded as between buyer and StockX, and StockX and the seller, at the moment where the buyer clicks on the “Buy now” button and the transaction is successfully completed.
- Sell now: If the seller uses the “sell now” feature, which will attempt to automatically match a seller with a buyer at the highest bid, the contract will be concluded as between seller and StockX, and StockX and the buyer, at the moment where the seller clicks on the “Sell now” button and the transaction is successfully completed.
- In these scenarios the contracts concluded between buyer and StockX, and seller and StockX, are under the condition that the article’s authenticity and quality is approved by StockX. In the event that StockX determines that the article is not authentic or does not meet the condition standards, StockX shall have the right to negate the contracts between StockX and buyer and StockX and seller, and will refund the buyer and return the product to the seller (unless destroyed or disposed of pursuant to Section 8). For the sake of clarity, in all of the above scenarios, the seller is determining the ask price in the transaction, and not StockX.
3.3. A further description of the live marketplace process and the rules applicable to buyers and sellers is available on our FAQ page, as updated from time to time. Please note that these are global FAQ and may partly not apply to the use of the Services in Germany. Although StockX might provide historical pricing data to the buyer and seller, we do not set prices for the items and StockX is not an auctioneer.
3.4. Because sellers set prices, they may be higher than retail value of the products sold on our Site. Any item valuations displayed through the Services are estimates only. StockX does not guarantee that any item will sell. StockX reserves the right to investigate complaints and violations of these Terms and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may take any actions we deem appropriate, including suspending a buyer or seller account and charging your payment method for costs we incur as a result of the violation. Although the Services are anonymous and we generally do not share your information with other buyers and sellers, we may share your information with law enforcement and professional advisers under an obligation of confidentiality as part of an investigation related to any alleged violation of law or these Terms in accordance with our Privacy Policy, and we may respond to all inquiries initiated by law enforcement or other governmental agencies. You agree that we may charge your credit card or other payment method for amounts you owe as described in these terms, as well as any costs or losses arising from your violation of the Terms.
3.5. The Services are accessible to certain international sellers and buyers. StockX may provide access to certain features and tools to international sellers and buyers, such as estimated local currency conversion and integrated international shipping, customs and tax tools. Sellers and buyers are responsible for complying with all laws and regulations applicable to the international sale, purchase, and shipment of items.
4. Accounts, Passwords, and Security.
To view or browse the live marketplace, you must create an account using an email address and password or other account creation tools offered on the Services, such as a social media account. To offer items for sale (“Ask”) or offer to purchase items (“Bid”), you must create an account and have a valid credit card or other approved payment method on file with our third-party payment processors. When you register to create an account with us, you agree to provide accurate information about yourself and must not register under a false name or age or use an unauthorized payment method. If you use any Service, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your computer, and you agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or password. You agree to notify StockX immediately upon learning of any unauthorized use of your account or password, or any other unauthorized access or breach of security. However, you may be held liable for losses incurred by StockX or any other person or entity due to another person using your account or password.

StockX may cooperate with legal authorities and/or third parties in the investigation of any suspected or alleged crime or civil wrong.

6. Counterfeits, Fraud, and Market Manipulation.
StockX may monitor the integrity of the StockX marketplace and may take steps to protect the marketplace as determined by StockX in its sole discretion (e.g., if StockX believes a seller or buyer is engaging in market manipulation or fraud, including creating false or “dummy” accounts).

Chapter 3: Terms of Purchase Applicable for Seller on StockX Live Marketplace
The terms and conditions in this Chapter 3 describe the rights and obligations of the seller. They do not apply to any buyer. They only apply if the seller is an entrepreneur (§ 14 BGB), a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law.
7. Contract between StockX and seller
The formation and validity of the contract between StockX and the seller is subject to the conditions of Section 3.2. This concerns, inter alia, the item’s proper condition, which shall meet the authenticity requirements and StockX’ condition standards as confirmed by StockX after the seller delivered the item to StockX.
8. Authentication; Shipping and Handling.
8.1. As part of the purchase transaction, the seller will ship the item to StockX and StockX will visually inspect the item and use commercially reasonable efforts to confirm it is authentic and meets our condition standards. If StockX determines the item is authentic and meets our condition standards, StockX will ship the item to the buyer. If StockX cannot reasonably confirm the authenticity of the item or determines it is not authentic or does not meet our condition standards, then we will notify the buyer and the seller that the item has not passed authentication. In such event, the contract between seller and StockX shall be null and void. At the costs of the seller, we will return the item to the seller or destroy the item as set forth in Section 9. If the buyer has made any payment already, we will issue a refund to the buyer. Any additional costs arising out of or in connection with the seller’s item’s failure to meet the authenticity requirements and/or StockX’ condition standards shall be borne by the seller.
8.2. Additionally, StockX has the right to reject any item for cause, including but not limited to, authenticity, failure to meet our condition standards, or damage of the item.
8.3. StockX policy requires sellers to ship items within the specified timeframe provided in the sale confirmation email after purchase.
8.4 Ownership of the product will pass to StockX following successful authentication of the product and shall pass to the buyer upon shipment immediately following authentication.
9 Counterfeits, Fraud, and Market Manipulation.
9.1 StockX takes counterfeiting, fraud and market manipulation very seriously. If a seller provides a counterfeit item or attempts to defraud any buyer or StockX, StockX reserves the right to do any or all of the following, in its sole discretion: (i) remove any or all of seller’s listings from the Services; (ii) cancel any or all of seller’s orders pending through the Services; (iii) withhold any payments due to seller; (iv) place limits on seller’s buying and selling privileges; (v) ship the item back to the seller at the seller’s cost (including any customs and duties amounts incurred by StockX); (vi) provide the counterfeit items to law enforcement or destroy the counterfeit items, (vii) temporarily or permanently suspend seller’s account, and (viii) charge seller’s payment method a minimum of $15.00 USD or an amount up to 15% of the transaction amount, in StockX’s sole discretion, as a service fee. Seller hereby agrees that each of the foregoing remedies are reasonable and justified upon StockX’s discovery of counterfeit items or fraudulent actions, even if those items or actions were not known by the Seller at the time to be counterfeit or fraudulent (e.g., negligent fraud).
9.2 Seller understands and agrees that if we provide the counterfeit item to law enforcement, seller’s communications and any property claim with respect to that item must be solely with that law enforcement agency and not with us. We may also use fraud protection measures, including algorithms and automated systems to monitor for fraud, which might result in cancellation of listings or sales or account suspension. If this occurs in error please contact us at https://help.stockx.com. We may also require additional identification information from you if you engage in certain high-value transactions or high overall payment volumes through StockX.
10. Seller Obligations.
10.1. By listing an item for sale (each posting, a “New Ask”), you are making a binding offer to sell that specific item to StockX, and to ship the item in accordance with our FAQ as applicable to you and as updated from time to time. When your ask is matched by a buyer and the contract is concluded with StockX, you are contractually and legally bound to sell that item and deliver that exact item to StockX for the specified price.
10.2. SELLERS MUST SHIP items to StockX via the shipping carrier designated by StockX within the specified timeframe provided in the sale confirmation email and must obtain a receipt from the shipping carrier to verify shipment of item. Sellers must ship an item sold on our Sites from the country listed as your address on file (e.g., if your address on file is located in Germany, you cannot use the shipping label provided to you to ship the item from France). StockX will provide you with a shipping label with such carrier after your Ask is matched by a buyer. You are obligated to monitor your inventory and ensure all listings are accurate.
10.3. Once a Bid and Ask are matched, under no circumstances may a seller cancel the listing. Failure to fulfill your orders will result in additional charges to you, including a minimum of $15.00 USD, or an amount up to 15% of the transaction amount, in StockX’s sole discretion. If a seller fails to deliver items to StockX in accordance with these Terms, StockX reserves the right to do any or all of the following, in its sole discretion: (i) charge seller’s payment method a minimum of $15.00 USD or an amount up to 15% of the transaction amount, in StockX’s sole discretion, as a service fee; (ii) remove any or all of seller’s listings from the Services; (iii) cancel any or all of seller’s orders pending through the Services; (iv) withhold any payments due to seller; (v) place limits on seller’s buying and selling privileges; (vi) charge seller’s payment method for costs, expenses and fees incurred by StockX as a result of seller’s action or inaction, including charging seller for the cost of a replacement, coupons and gift certificates provided to the buyer, reprinting fees incurred by StockX, rerouting charges imposed by carriers, and refunds to the buyer; and (vii) temporarily or permanently suspend seller’s account.
10.4. As a seller, you are required to ensure that the item you are listing exactly matches the image on the New Ask page and meets the applicable Condition Standard. If StockX or a buyer reasonably determines that your item does not conform to the description (including, without limitation, meeting the applicable Condition Standard), or is counterfeit, then, in StockX’s sole discretion, we will charge your payment method a minimum of $15.00 USD or an amount up to 15% of the transaction amount, as a service fee, plus additional amounts or, as determined in StockX’s discretion, charging you for the cost of a replacement, coupons and gift certificates provided to the buyer, reprinting fees incurred by StockX, rerouting charges imposed by carriers, and refunds to the buyer. StockX has no obligation to return items to a seller that do not conform to the description (including, without limitation, meeting the applicable Condition Standard), or are counterfeit (in which case, StockX may turn those items over to the proper authorities). StockX will pay you within a reasonable amount of time following completion of the sale. To get paid more quickly, ship your items immediately after your Ask is matched by a buyer. To see the fees applicable to sales transactions, please refer to the New Ask window where your Ask price is entered. You will also receive fee information via email notification when an Ask goes live, is updated, or a sale occurs.
10.5. Professional sellers must comply with all laws and regulations applicable to the sale of their products on StockX’s live marketplace.

11.2. Seller shall be paid following StockX’s confirmation that the item meets the authenticity requirements and StockX’s condition standards. Unless otherwise agreed, we will pay the purchase price within 30 days net.
11.3. The seller is responsible and agrees to collect, pay, report and remit any and all local, state, provincial, federal, or international duties and taxes (including VAT and sales tax) that may be due by the Seller with respect to the sales transaction.
12. Fees, Promotional/Discount Codes and Taxes
12.1. We will charge sellers a service fee for the Services as descriped in this FAQ
12.2. StockX may sometimes furnish an alphanumeric code that can be used for promotions or discounts for purchases on our sites. These promotional or discount codes may be sent via email to our registered users, presented on our Sites or circulated at events and through other means and, are subject to applicable promotional or discount terms.
13. Warranty, Inspection
13.1. Statutory warranty rights apply. The seller warrants in particular that all items delivered will be free from defects in material and workmanship. The seller also warrants that the goods are in his absolute property and none are subject of any option, right to acquire, assignment, mortgage, charge, lien or hypothecation or any other encumbrance whatsoever or the subject of any factoring arrangement, hire–purchase, conditional sale or credit sale agreement, or subject to any other rights of third parties.
13.2. StockX shall not be obliged to inspect incoming goods. Section 377 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) shall be limited to an external random inspection of the Supplier’s deliveries for obvious defects.
14. Withdrawal
StockX shall be entitled to immediately withdraw from a contract of a specific item with the seller, if the buyer withdraws from his contract with StockX due to any circumstance outside the control of StockX, including revocation under Section 20.
15. Right of Retention
The seller shall not be entitled to assert rights of retention and/or rights to refuse performance against StockX unless the underlying claims have been acknowledged, are undisputed or have been finally adjudicated.
16. Restrictions
StockX does not provide any guarantee that your items will sell and will not provide any compensation for items that do not sell through our Services. StockX also does not guarantee how long it will take for a listing to appear in the Services after it is posted and is not responsible for unsold items resulting from any listing delays.
Chapter 4: Terms of Sale Applicable for Buyers on StockX Live Marketplace
The terms and conditions in this Chapter 4 describe the rights and obligations of the buyer. They do not apply to any seller.
17. Contract between StockX and buyer
The formation and validity of the contract is subject to Section 3.2 and the provisions of this Chapter 4. This concerns, inter alia, that StockX will only accept buyer’s binding offer after confirming the item’s proper condition, which shall meet the authenticity requirements and StockX’s condition standards after the seller delivered the item to StockX.
18. Buyer Obligations.
18.1. A buyer may place a Bid on an item for sale through the Services. When a Bid matches an Ask, the buyer is obligated to pay for that item. WHEN YOU PLACE A BID, YOU ARE COMMITTING TO PURCHASE THE ITEM AS SOON AS YOUR BID MATCHES A SELLER’S ASK PRICE AND YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT PAYMENT OF THE ASK PRICE WILL BE TAKEN FROM YOUR PAYMENT METHOD.
18.2. To be an eligible buyer you must have a billing address and shipping address within one of the countries that StockX supports. You can see a full list of these countries at Available Countries, which may be updated from time to time.
18.3. In general, we charge your payment method immediately upon purchase. You will not receive any interest on the purchase amount while the transaction is being fulfilled. You might be required to pay certain fees as described when placing your Bid, as updated from time to time. If your payment fails or is rejected for any reason (e.g., purchase exceeds credit card limit, card is cancelled, chargeback is requested), StockX reserves the right to do any or all of the following, in its sole discretion: (i) charge buyer’s payment method a minimum of $15.00 USD or an amount up to 15% of the transaction amount, in StockX’s sole discretion, as a service fee; (ii) remove any or all of buyer’s Bids from the Services; (iii) cancel any or all of buyer’s orders pending through the Services; (iv) withhold refunds or payments due to buyer; (v) place limits on buyer’s buying and selling privileges; (vi) charge buyer’s payment method for costs, expenses and fees incurred by StockX as a result of buyer’s action or inaction; and (vii) temporarily or permanently suspend buyer’s account.
18.4. ALL SALES ARE FINAL ONCE THE ITEM IS AUTHENTICATED AND DELIVERED, AND NO REFUND REQUESTS WILL BE HONORED REGARDLESS OF THE CURRENT VALUE OF THE ITEM, UNLESS PROVIDED UNDER THE APPLICABLE LAW.
18.5. If you experience a problem with your purchase or an item, please contact us at https://help.stockx.com. If there is a problem with an item you received, you must contact us in writing within 3 days after receiving the item with a detailed description of the problem. StockX verification tags or stickers that are attached to items must not be removed, or the items will not be eligible for return or exchange under any circumstance (including damage in transit).
18.6. Prices include a processing fee, applicable import duties and delivery cost. The delivery cost and processing fee will be shown at checkout. Items ordered will be at your risk from the time of delivery or collection (as the case may be). Ownership of the item(s) ordered will also pass to you upon shipment of the goods from StockX’s location following authentication, provided full payment of all sums due in respect of the item(s), including any delivery charges, has been received. Potential claims against the StockX, including warranty claims and the right to withdrawal, if any, remain unaffected.
19. Shipment
19.1. Because StockX cannot control the amount of time it takes for the item to reach StockX, we cannot guarantee a specific delivery timeframe for any items and therefore, buyer is not permitted to cancel the purchase if the item does not ship from the seller within the specified timeframe in the sale confirmation email after purchase. Once we receive the item from the seller it generally takes 1-2 business days for StockX to authenticate the item and ship it to a buyer.
19.2. If a buyer does not receive an item, the buyer shall promptly report the issue to StockX within 2 days of the latest estimated delivery date. Shipping will be charged per item and no additional taxes, duties or applicable tax will be collected by StockX upon delivery of your item. Shipping rates are based on the average size and weight of an item. Some items that are larger and/or heavier will incur additional shipping costs. These costs will be included in the price breakdown at the time a buyer makes their purchase.
20. Right of Withdrawal
20.1. As a buyer, you have the right to withdraw from the contract with StockX within fourteen days without giving any reason.
20.2. The withdrawal period will expire after fourteen days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the goods. In the case of a contract for several goods that you have purchased as part of a single auction and which are delivered separately, the period begins on the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good. In the case of a contract for the delivery of goods in several lots or pieces, the period begins on the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last lot or piece.
20.3. To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail), sent to:
StockX LLC
1046 Woodward Avenue
Detroit MI 48226
USA
20.4 You may use the model withdrawal form available on the Site, but it is not obligatory. To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
21. Effects of withdrawal:
21.1. If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
21.2. You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods. You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case no later than within fourteen days from the day on which you notify us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the expiry of the period of fourteen days. You shall bear the direct costs of returning the goods. You will only have to pay for any loss in value of the goods if this loss in value is due to handling of the goods that is not necessary for testing the condition, properties and functioning of the goods.
