The arbitrator(s) may not consolidate more than one party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
NO INVESTMENTS OR INVESTMENT ADVICE. Company does not sell coins or numismatics as investments, but rather as collectibles. The Company expresses no opinion regarding the soundness of any collectible coin, metal, or other numismatic product as an investment. You agree and acknowledge that: (a) neither Company nor any of its employees or representatives acts as your agent or fiduciary; and (b) Company employees are not licensed investment advisors and are not making any specific recommendations regarding any forms of investment. Company does not and cannot guarantee that you will be able to sell any products you purchase from the Company for a profit in the future.
Any information provided by the Company regarding the coin and collectibles industry, or the products it sells, is for reference use only, and does not constitute the rendering of investment, legal, financial, or professional advice. The retail prices of the products the Company sells are not to be used as a definitive guide to value for a product, nor should any comparable value statement provided in Company communications be construed as an indication that your purchase will perform similarly. The market for collectible coins, metals, and numismatics is highly speculative and involves substantial risk. These risks include, but are not limited to, price volatility, fluctuations in supply and demand, changing grading standards, and fluctuating populations. It is impossible to forecast accurately whether or to what extent these factors (or other factors) will affect market prices.
CUSTOMER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. You represent and warrant that: (a) you are at least eighteen (18) years of age; (b) you have the authority, capacity, and financial ability to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (c) the information you provide to the Company is complete and accurate; and (d) your interaction with the Company does not violate any applicable law or regulation. All other representations and warranties are expressly disclaimed.
SEVERABILITY. In the event any portion of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such portion will be construed as nearly as possible to reflect the original intent of the parties hereto, or if such construction cannot be made, such provision or portion thereof will be severable from this Agreement, provided that the same will not affect in any respect whatsoever the remainder of this Agreement.
ASSIGNMENT. You may not assign your rights and obligations under this Agreement to any third party, and any purported attempt to do so will be null and void. The Company may freely assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement.
MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT. The Company may revise this Agreement, including the Additional Agreements incorporated by reference. The most current version will be available at https://www.moderncoinmart.com/terms-conditions.html. If the revision is material, the Company will deliver notice of the revision to the most current e-mail address or, if unknown, mailing address associated with your account. By continuing to purchase products from the Company after such revision and notice, you agree to be bound by the revised Agreement. It is your responsibility to ensure that your contact information on file with the Company remains current at all times. Any other modifications or amendments to this Agreement are effective only by a signed, written agreement between you and the Chief Executive Officer or President of the Company.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the Additional Agreements set forth the entire understanding between you and the Company with respect to the subject matter thereof, and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous proposals, communications, agreements, negotiations, and representations, whether written or oral, regarding the subject matter thereof. Neither you nor Company shall rely on any oral or written statement that is inconsistent with this Agreement or the Additional Agreements.
