6. Tickets
Paltiket is a ticket marketplace that allows registered users and unregistered users to sell (in this capacity, "Sellers") and buy (in this capacity, “Buyers”) Tickets respectfully. The Seller (and not Paltiket) sets the prices for the Tickets and the number of Tickets available. As a marketplace, we do not own the Tickets sold on the Site. Ticket prices may exceed the face value of the Ticket.
While we may provide pricing, listing and other guidance on the Site, such guidance is solely informational (without any warranty as to accuracy). Also, while we may help facilitate the resolution of disputes between Buyer and Seller and provide a guarantee for the buyer, wehave no control over and do not guarantee the existence, quality, safety or legality of the Tickets; the truth or accuracy of the user’s content or listings; the ability of Sellers to sell tickets or Buyers to pay for them; or that a Buyer or Seller will complete a transaction.

7. Selling Tickets
When listing a Ticket you must set a price for which you are willing to sell your Ticket ("Sales Price"). You may modify (e.g. raise or lower the Sales Price) or delete your listing at any time until the Tickets have sold.
By listing a Ticket for sale, you are making a binding offer to sell that Ticket to a Buyer who purchases the Ticket at the Sales Price. You are obligated to monitor your inventory and ensure all listings are accurate. Under no circumstances may Sellers cancel orders at one price and repost the same tickets for a higher price.
We do not guarantee that your tickets will sell or that your listing will appear on the Site within a certain time after it is posted or in a particular order on the event or travel company page or through search results. We will not, for any reason, provide compensation for tickets that do not sell, even if it is due to Site unavailability from an outage or maintenance or listing delays.
The Customer may not forge or make copies of Tickets, or reproduce them in any waywhatsoever.

8. Buying Tickets
You are responsible for reading the complete listing before committing to buy Tickets using our platform. When placing an order, you are entering into a binding contract with the Seller to purchase those Tickets. Additional terms communicated to you by the Seller may apply. Payment is remitted to Paltiketand disbursed to the seller according to our User Agreement. All Sales are final. You cannot change or cancel any orders after the sale is complete.

9. Formation of a Contract
When Tickets are being offered and sold, we act as an intermediary in theformation of the Agreement between the Buyer and the Event Holder or Travel Company. We are not a party to the Agreement that is formed by the purchase of a Ticket. TheAgreement is formed after the Customer has purchased one or more Tickets via our platform. We only provide the Tickets on behalf of the Event Holder or Travel Company.
Before confirming the reservation/purchase, a Customer should always check if thecorrect Tickets have been selected. When purchasing, a Customer must always usea correct email address. After purchasing a Ticket, the risk of loss, theft or misuse of a Ticket shall pass to the Customer as soon as payment has been confirmed. If there is doubt regarding the accuracy of the details provided by the Customer when buying, we may contact the Customer using the details provided by the Customer.

13. Fees And Other Charges
We charge fees for buying Tickets through our Site and/or otherwise using our Services. A Service Fee is a fixed percentage of the ticket price and the seller does not pay any fee while listing tickets on our platform. We may at our sole and absolute discretion change our Service Fee percentage at any time, including after you list your Tickets. 
Payments received from Buyers for Tickets purchased via the Site are processed by a third-party entity on behalf of Paltiket and credited to the Seller by the applicable law. Seller agrees that any payment made by Buyer to Paltiket shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to Seller, and Seller will make the Tickets available to Buyer in the agreed-upon manner as if Seller had received the payment directly from Buyer. 
Payments from Buyers are due and payable immediately. A Buyer can pay the full order amount which includes any applicable Service Fees and taxes using one of the accepted payment methods.
A Buyer’s obligation to pay for a Ticket is satisfied when we receive the Payment in full.

14. Event Cancellations, Postponement and Other Event Changes
Cancellation: If an event or travel is cancelled and not rescheduled, we will remove the event or travel and any listings related to the event or travel from our Site and inform the Buyer about the cancellation with further instructions.
Postponement: If an event or travel is postponed, we will work with Buyers and Sellers on a case-by-case basis attempting to resolve any Ticket issues. Sellers are prohibited from invalidating or changing Tickets for postponed events or travels. Refunds will not be issued for postponed events or travel unless they are ultimately cancelled as stated above.
Other Changes: For events, we are not responsible for partial performances, venue, line-up or time changes. No refunds will be issued in these instances.
