Terms of Service
Effective Date: May 7, 2026
Last Updated: May 7, 2026
Welcome to MarkitMix. These Terms of Service (the "Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you and MarkitMix, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("MarkitMix," "we," "our," or "us"), governing your access to and use of the MarkitMix website, mobile applications, APIs, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
Please read these Terms carefully. They include important provisions that affect your legal rights, including a binding arbitration clause and a class action waiver in Section 18, which require you to resolve disputes with us on an individual basis and limit the remedies available to you in the event of a dispute. You may opt out of arbitration as described in Section 18.
By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service in any way, you agree to these Terms, our Community Guidelines, our Privacy Policy, and any other policies, rules, or guidelines we publish (collectively incorporated into these Terms by reference). If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.
1. About MarkitMix
MarkitMix operates an online marketplace that connects independent buyers and sellers of physical goods through formats that may include auctions, fixed-price ("Buy It Now") listings, accepted offers, bundled shipping, and (when available) live sales.
MarkitMix is a venue, not a party to transactions between users. All sales are contracts solely between the buyer and the seller. MarkitMix does not own, sell, resell, furnish, authorize, offer, deliver, take title to, or transfer legal ownership of any item listed on the Service, and is not the agent of any user. Except where expressly stated, MarkitMix does not inspect, authenticate, guarantee, or warrant any item sold through the Service.
2. Eligibility
To use the Service, you must:
- Be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a legally binding contract under applicable law;
- Not be barred from receiving services under the laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdiction;
- Not have been previously suspended or removed from the Service;
- Provide accurate and complete information when creating an account; and
- Comply with these Terms and all applicable laws and regulations.
The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will delete it. See our Privacy Policy for details.
3. Account Registration and Security
To buy or sell on the Service, you must create an account. You agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information;
- Maintain and promptly update your account information;
- Maintain the security and confidentiality of your login credentials;
- Be solely responsible for all activity that occurs under your account; and
- Notify us immediately at info@markitmix.shop of any unauthorized access or suspected security breach.
You may maintain only one account unless we expressly authorize otherwise. Creating additional accounts to circumvent suspensions, restrictions, fees, or strikes is prohibited and grounds for permanent termination.
4. Buyers
4.1 Binding Bids and Purchases
All bids placed in an auction, all offers submitted, and all Buy It Now purchases on the Service are binding commitments to purchase. By placing a bid, submitting an offer, or completing a Buy It Now purchase, you agree to pay the resulting price (plus applicable shipping, taxes, and fees) and to complete the transaction with the seller. Bids and offers cannot be retracted except in narrow circumstances permitted by us in our sole discretion (for example, an obvious typographical error).
4.2 Payment Authorization and Auto-Charge
By saving a payment method to your account, you authorize MarkitMix and its payment processors (including Stripe, Inc.) to charge that payment method for amounts you owe under these Terms, including the purchase price of items you win or buy, applicable taxes and shipping, and any cancellation, non-payment, or other fees described in these Terms or in your seller's listing terms. This authorization remains in effect until you remove the payment method or close your account, subject to our right to retain a payment method on file to settle outstanding obligations.
4.3 Cancellation and Non-Payment Fees
Sellers may set a cancellation fee on their listings to protect against non-payment. If you win an auction, have an offer accepted, or complete a Buy It Now purchase but fail to pay within the required timeframe (typically 24 hours from the time payment is due), the seller's cancellation fee will be charged to your saved payment method.
Cancellation fees may be a fixed amount (e.g., $10) or a percentage of the winning bid or purchase price (e.g., 5%), as configured by the seller, subject to a maximum cap set by MarkitMix. The applicable fee is disclosed on each listing before you bid, offer, or purchase.
4.4 Account Strikes and Restrictions
Non-payment incidents are tracked through an account-strike system. Each non-payment event results in a strike on your account. Accumulating strikes may lead to temporary or permanent restrictions on your ability to bid, make offers, or purchase items. Strike thresholds and corresponding restrictions are determined by MarkitMix and may be updated from time to time. You can view your current account standing in your profile settings.
4.5 Disputes and Appeals
If you believe a cancellation fee or strike was applied in error, or there were extenuating circumstances that prevented payment, you may contact info@markitmix.shop within 30 days. All disputes are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. MarkitMix reserves the right to make final determinations.
4.6 Dealing with Sellers
Your transaction is with the seller. Issues regarding item condition, accuracy of description, shipping delays, returns, refunds, or post-sale disputes must first be raised with the seller through our messaging system. If you cannot resolve the issue with the seller, you may escalate to MarkitMix support, which may (but is not obligated to) mediate, refund, or take other action consistent with our then-current buyer-protection policies.
5. Sellers
5.1 Seller Representations and Warranties
By listing an item on the Service, you represent and warrant that:
- You own the item or have full legal authority to sell it;
- The item is accurately and truthfully described, including condition, authenticity, materials, dimensions, defects, and any prior repair or modification;
- All photographs depict the actual item being sold;
- The sale and shipment of the item complies with all applicable laws and these Terms;
- The item does not infringe any third party's intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights;
- You will honor the listing's stated terms (price, condition, shipping, returns); and
- You will fulfill orders promptly in accordance with Section 5.4.
5.2 Listing Standards
Listings must be accurate, complete, and not misleading. You may not use deceptive titles, irrelevant keywords, hidden text, or unrelated brand names to attract attention to your listing. You may not list items you do not have in your possession (drop-shipping is permitted only if disclosed and shipped within the listing's stated handling time).
5.3 Stripe Connected Account
To receive payouts, you must register a Stripe Connected Account through MarkitMix. By doing so, you agree to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement and the Stripe Services Agreement, which are agreements directly between you and Stripe. You are responsible for keeping your Stripe account in good standing and providing accurate identity, banking, and tax information to Stripe.
5.4 Shipping and Fulfillment
Sellers are responsible for packaging and shipping sold items in accordance with the listing's stated handling time. The Service integrates with Shippo to facilitate label purchase, tracking, and (when available) bundled multi-item shipping. By purchasing a label through the Service, you authorize the corresponding amount to be deducted from your seller balance or charged to your payment method.
Sellers must:
- Ship within the stated handling time (typically 1–3 business days);
- Use the carrier and service indicated in the listing or selected at fulfillment;
- Provide valid tracking; and
- Take reasonable care in packaging to prevent damage in transit.
Sellers bear the risk of loss or damage in transit unless otherwise disclosed in the listing and agreed by the buyer. Failure to ship on time, repeated lost or damaged items, or shipping items materially different from the listing description may result in order cancellation, refunds to the buyer, payout reversal, account strikes, or termination.
5.5 Returns and Buyer-Seller Disputes
Sellers are expected to work in good faith with buyers to resolve disputes. MarkitMix may, in its discretion, intervene in disputes, issue refunds from seller balances, void shipping labels, or otherwise act to protect buyers consistent with our then-current policies.
5.6 Taxes
You are responsible for determining and paying any income, self-employment, business, or other taxes that arise from your sales on the Service. MarkitMix may collect and remit sales, use, or similar transaction taxes on your behalf as a marketplace facilitator where required by law; in such cases, the marketplace-facilitator tax is collected from the buyer and remitted directly by MarkitMix to the applicable taxing authority. MarkitMix may issue IRS Form 1099-K (or successor forms) to sellers who meet applicable reporting thresholds and may share information with tax authorities as required by law.
5.7 No Off-Platform Transactions
You may not use the Service to identify users and then complete the transaction off the Service to avoid platform fees, evade buyer protection, or for any other reason. Soliciting off-platform contact information, payment, or sales is prohibited and grounds for termination and forfeiture of pending payouts.
6. Fees
MarkitMix charges sellers the following fees on completed sales:
- Platform Fee: 7.1% of the item sale price (excluding taxes and shipping), unless modified by an active promotion or fee schedule applicable to your account.
- Payment Processing: Stripe's standard payment processing fees, passed through to the seller as a separate line item.
- Shipping: The cost of shipping labels purchased through the Service.
- Cancellation Fees: Charged to buyers as described in Section 4.3 and remitted to sellers, less any platform processing.
- Other Fees: As disclosed in the Service or in writing from time to time.
Fees are deducted from seller payouts at the time of sale or otherwise charged through the Service. We may change our fees at any time by posting the updated fees in the Service or notifying you. Fee changes apply to listings created or sales completed after the effective date of the change.
7. Community Guidelines; Prohibited Items and Conduct
Your use of the Service is also subject to our Community Guidelines, which are incorporated into these Terms by reference. The Community Guidelines describe what is and isn't allowed on MarkitMix and include (without limitation):
- Standards for honest, accurate listings and respectful conduct toward other users;
- A strict prohibition on counterfeit, replica, knockoff, "inspired by," "in the style of," "dupe," and unauthorized fan-made or fan-art items using third-party intellectual property;
- Restrictions on weapons, drugs, hazardous materials, recalled items, adult content, and other regulated or unlawful goods;
- Prohibitions on shill bidding, fee circumvention, multiple-account abuse, off-platform solicitation, scraping, harassment, and other abusive conduct; and

Violation of the Community Guidelines is a violation of these Terms and may result in listing removal, refunds to affected buyers, account strikes, suspension, or permanent termination, as described in Section 14.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
16. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL MARKITMIX OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF MARKITMIX HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, MARKITMIX'S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL FEES YOU PAID TO MARKITMIX IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses.
18. Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration; Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH MARKITMIX ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMITS THE WAYS YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.
18.1 Informal Resolution
Before filing a claim against MarkitMix, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by sending a written notice to info@markitmix.shop describing the dispute and the relief sought. We will attempt to resolve the dispute through good-faith negotiation within sixty (60) days of receipt. If the dispute is not resolved within that period, either party may proceed to arbitration.
18.2 Binding Arbitration
Except as provided below, you and MarkitMix agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
18.3 Class Action Waiver
YOU AND MARKITMIX AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding.
18.4 Exceptions
Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies; (b) either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights; and (c) disputes regarding the validity or enforceability of the class action waiver in Section 18.3 will be decided by a court, not an arbitrator.
18.5 Right to Opt Out
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to info@markitmix.shop within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your full name, the email address associated with your account, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. Opting out will not affect any other provision of these Terms.
18.6 Severability of This Section
If any portion of this Section 18 (other than the class action waiver in Section 18.3) is found unenforceable, the remainder will continue to apply. If the class action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim must be brought in court rather than in arbitration.
19. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, and (to the extent applicable) the Federal Arbitration Act. Subject to Section 18, the exclusive venue for any action not subject to arbitration is the state and federal courts located in New Castle County, Delaware, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.
20. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email (to the address associated with your account), through the Service, or by other reasonable means at least thirty (30) days before the changes take effect, except that changes addressing new features, legal requirements, or security issues may take effect immediately. The "Last Updated" date at the top reflects the most recent changes.
If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Service and may close your account before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
21. General
- Entire Agreement. These Terms (together with the documents they reference) constitute the entire agreement between you and MarkitMix regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.
- Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force.
- No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
- Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms without restriction.
- No Third-Party Beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any third-party beneficiary rights.
- Force Majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, labor disputes, internet or utility failures, or pandemics.
- Notices to You. We may give notice through the Service or by emailing the address associated with your account. Notices are deemed received when sent.
- Notices to Us. Notices to MarkitMix must be sent to info@markitmix.shop.
- Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
- Relationship. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created by these Terms.
- Export and Sanctions. You represent that you are not located in, or a national of, any country subject to U.S. embargoes, and that you are not on any U.S. government restricted-party list.
- Electronic Communications. You consent to receive communications from us electronically (including emails and notices posted in the Service) and agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide electronically satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing.
