General
The Faber Artisan Market Place Ltd (“Faber”) is an online “Platform” that allows users to offer, sell, and buy “Goods” or “Products”. Please read these terms and conditions carefully before you sell or buy from our Platform.
You must be 18 years of age or older to enter a legally binding contract to sell online with Faber. All artisans must have the personal authority to agree to the terms and conditions to sell products on Faber.
If you are using our Platform as a representative of an entity, you agree to these terms on behalf of that entity.
Items must not be “mass-produced” through “mass production” methods and must be the original design or produce of the Seller.
These terms shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the law of England and Wales.
Contracts of Sale
We are a marketplace that allows users to offer, sell, and buy Products. The actual contract for the sale of Products is directly between the Seller and the Buyer. Faber is not liable to any person in relation to an offer for sale or purchase of any Product listed on our Platform. Faber is not responsible for any contractual obligations between the Buyer and Seller.
We may audit and monitor at our discretion the information in listings, comments, and reviews posted by users.
A buyer may place orders on the Platform as instructed on our Platform. By having an item available to purchase in their shop, the Buyer then accepts that order as it is placed on the website. At this point, a contract between the Seller and the Buyer exists.
We will assign an order number to each order. Please tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.
Terms and Conditions for Sale
If you list an item on our Platform, you agree to the Terms and Conditions for Sale, our Policies, Selling Practices, and Code of Conduct. You are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the listing of the Product offered and should delete any listings that are no longer available. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or delete any listing that violates our rules, policies, and practices.
We do not accept listings for re-selling supplies, vintage, or group collective sellers. We do not allow items that have been made by using a premade item. For “Artisan”, we ask that any items offered are original works. Prints are allowed but must be solely from your own designs, paintings, or drawings.
