Always use caution when giving out any personally identifying information about yourself or your children in any Communication Service. AOPA does not control or endorse the content, messages, or information found in any Communication Service, and, therefore, AOPA specifically disclaims any liability with regard to the Communication Services and any actions resulting from your participation in any Communication Service. Participants are not authorized AOPA spokespersons, and their views do not necessarily reflect those of AOPA.

Materials uploaded to a Communication Service may be subject to posted limitations on usage, reproduction, and/or dissemination. You are responsible for adhering to such limitations if you download the materials.

MATERIALS PROVIDED TO AOPA OR POSTED AT ANY AOPA WEB SITE

USING THE SERVICES
AOPA Auctions & Classifieds are offered solely as a forum for you to use the Services to buy and sell goods. AOPA is not involved in any transaction between you and any other party who uses this Site, and is not acting as your or any other party's agent. AOPA cannot screen, censor, or otherwise control the listings or any transactions, including whether a listing is accurately described, whether an item can be legally purchased or sold in your jurisdiction, or whether a transaction will be completed as described by the seller or the buyer. Further, AOPA cannot control or warrant the behavior of the users of the Services. As such, your use of AOPA Auctions & Classifieds and its Services is at your own risk, and AOPA disclaims any liability with regard to use of the Services and any actions resulting from your or any other party's participation in the Services. You hereby agree to release AOPA, its suppliers, service partners, agents, employees, consultants, and trustees from all claims, demands, and damages, whether actual or consequential, of every kind, whether known or unknown, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or relating to any and all listings, transactions, or any other use of AOPA Auctions & Classifieds and the Services. Further, because AOPA is not involved in any transactions between you and other users of the Services, AOPA cannot and will not be involved in resolving any disputes relating to any completed or uncompleted transaction for the purchase or sale of listed goods.

You warrant that you will abide by all additional procedures and guidelines, as modified from time to time, in connection with your use of the Services. You further warrant that you will comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding use of the Services. Without limitation, by listing an item for sale, you warrant that you have the legal right to sell the item, that the item is not counterfeit, and that it is a genuine and authentic item as described by the seller; by making a bid or offer to purchase, you warrant that you have the legal right to make the bid and the resources to honor the bid.

It is your responsibility to determine whether the purchase or sale of any listed item is authorized by law, statute, or regulation. Without limitation, the following items may not be sold or offered for sale on the AOPA Classifieds: firearms, explosives, and ammunition; alcoholic beverages; tobacco products; food that is not packaged or does not comply with all applicable laws for sale to consumers by commercial merchants; pharmaceuticals and controlled substances; counterfeit, pirated or stolen goods; counterfeit, pirated or other unauthorized software, including unlicensed back-up copies, beta or pre-release software, academic edition software licensed solely for use by authorized educational institutions and other users, "fulfillment" software or other software not intended for general public distribution, copies installed on hardware hard drives without authorization, or software unbundled from the hardware it was purchased on or with; any goods that infringe or otherwise violate another party's rights, including copyright, patent, trademark, or rights of publicity or privacy; goods that are, in AOPA's sole discretion, indecent, obscene, or pornographic; registered or unregistered securities; goods that you do not have the legal right to sell; goods that are misrepresented or that do not in fact exist; goods that, if sold via the Services, would cause AOPA to violate any law, statute, or regulation.

AOPA reserves the right to cancel any listing or bid at any time for any reason, with or without cause, and reserves the right to prohibit or restrict access to the Services to anyone at any time, with or without cause.
