BUYERS SHOULD ASK FOR A COPY OF THE WARRANTY BEFORE ENTERING INTO A TRANSACTION.
It is the buyer’s responsibility to verify and understand the terms of the warranty being offered for the product before completing the transaction.

All products are subject to having been already sold and may not be available when you contact the seller. All prices and terms are valid on date of publication only.
It is the buyer’s responsibility to know the amount and nature of any deposit or fees prior to entering into any transaction.
Unless a buyer has a specific agreement with the seller, the seller is not required to hold any Product off the market and is free to sell any Product at any time. The act of submitting a purchase request through the CTG Site does not place a hold on any specific Product.

It is the buyer’s responsibility to confirm with the Advertiser that the Product will be held off the market until the purchase can be completed. Whether your deposit is refundable or not is subject to your contractual agreement with the Advertiser and/or state law.
