By using our online platforms, including the theBig.Deals website and BigDeal mobile apps ("Site"), and by purchasing or placing plays/bids on items through this platform, you are agreeing to these Terms of Use ("Terms"). These Terms, alongside our Privacy Policy, form a binding legal agreement. Your access and use of BigDeal's offerings signify your acceptance of these Terms. To use our Services, you must sign up and agree to these stipulations. Should you disagree with the Terms or our Privacy Policy, please refrain from using BigDeal's Services or any related offerings. Your registration and use of our services implies your agreement to abide by these terms and associated policies.
Before utilizing our service or site, or agreeing to these terms during registration, thoroughly review these conditions. They impact your legal rights. Your assent to these terms means you forgo certain legal actions against bigdeal, including lawsuits, jury trials, or participation in class actions. "site" encompasses all content, information, and services on both our website and mobile app. Bigdeal's offerings include all services made available by us, which are, together with the site, termed "services."
By engaging with our services, whether purchasing, bidding, or otherwise, you confirm you have the legal capacity to adhere to these terms. Only those above 18 can access bigdeal's services. By using them, you confirm you're at least 18, can legally enter into a contract with bigdeal, and meet all stipulated eligibility criteria.

On BigDeal, users might spend real money on virtual credits like Bids without getting tangible items. You oversee your spending and bidding actions, and BigDeal holds no responsibility or liability for it. Additionally, BigDeal doesn't assume responsibility for items you bid on or buy. Ensure you fully understand the product details before purchasing. All purchase decisions rest solely with you.
BigDeal has the authority to amend, alter, or revoke these Terms, the Services, or any associated policies or guidelines at its sole discretion, without prior notification. Any such modifications will become effective once they are posted on the Site. It is your duty to review these Terms before using the Services to ensure you are informed of any updates, as they are obligatory for you.

IF YOU DISAGREE WITH THESE TERMS OR ANY UPDATES, REFRAIN FROM SIGNING UP OR CONTINUING TO USE OUR SERVICES.
BigDeal is a global platform and caters to customers/bidders from any country in the world. But, BigDeal has the discretion to limit auction availability and item deliveries based on a user's country. This determination can be made using the user's IP address, billing, or shipping address. If there's an error in identifying your country of residence, kindly inform BigDeal at support@BigDeal.com.
BigDeal will try to ship products in any part of the world. BigDeal does not hold any inventory. BigDeal will procure and ship the product to the winners location once after the win has been established. In case, BigDeal is not able to ship the product to the user due to any reasons – BigDeal will transfer an equivalent amount of stable cryptocurrency to the user. This stable cryptocurrency would be USD Tether (USDT) on BEP20 or TRC20 chains. The final decision rests with BigDeal whether to ship the product or transfer USDT equating to the value of the winning product.
Please note, BigDeal does not facilitate deliveries to PO Boxes or freight-forwarding agencies and might refuse shipments to RR boxes. If you're considering an RR box for delivery, reach out to our support prior to making a purchase.
The policies available on the BigDeal Site are explicitly included within these terms, and it's crucial for users to carefully go through each one. Here's a breakdown:
Please ensure you familiarize yourself with all these components to get the most out of the Services and avoid any misunderstandings.
When you partake in an auction on the Site, you're essentially making legal offers for the purchase of items. By bidding, you're entering into a contractual relationship with the Site. Once your bid is accepted, a legal agreement is established between you (the buyer) and the Site, according to the auction's disclosed terms. Whether you bid or use the 'Buy It Now' feature, you are agreeing to uphold your end of the transaction and abide by all contractual commitments.
In BigDeal auctions, a "PLAY" represents a license, valid for at least one year, allowing you to place a bid. A PLAY is 1 bid. However, 1 Bid can be multiple PLAYs. A user buys PLAYs on BigDeal which are of a static fixed price of around 10 cents. The actual price may vary from currency to currency for different countries. These PLAYs don't equate to real money, don't offset product costs on our Site, and can't be exchanged for cash or any other monetary items. It's important for users to regulate their bidding behaviors since frequent online bids might lead to substantial costs. Always be mindful of your bidding habits to avoid undue expenses.
By using BigDeal and providing materials, users grant BigDeal the rights to use, modify, and distribute such materials. Users shouldn't misuse other users' information or use the site for unsolicited advertising or commercial gains. Content standards dictate that user-submitted content should not be harmful, offensive, illegal, or misleading.
PLAYs will not expire for at least a year from the date of purchase. Beyond a year, it will be at the discretion of BigDeal.
PLAYs can be transferred from one user to another. There will be a charge of 10 PLAYs for doing the same.
Allows users to buy the auctioned item at a set price and get their spent PLAYs back within a limited time.
Winnings once claimed by the user cannot be returned, unless otherwise the product is different or is damaged.
BigDeal will deliver items to the address provided by the user. Damages during transport must be reported immediately. If BigDeal cannot deliver the ordered item, they can offer a replacement or a gift card or USDT transfer.
BigDeal can replace an ordered item with a similar item or gift card, especially if there are issues with the original item's availability.
If the auctioned item cannot be delivered, BigDeal may offer a substitute or equivalent value in PLAYs. The user may have to return any substituted item if the original item becomes available later.
Items sold may come from various suppliers, some of which may have affiliations with BigDeal.
BigDeal doesn't manufacture the products and thus doesn't offer warranties. Any warranties are provided by the product's manufacturer.
BigDeal's liability is limited, and they're not responsible for indirect damages.

Any claims or legal actions related to BigDeal's services must be filed within one year of the incident.
