GALXClub Members:
Members that sign up for a group buy are considered "Committed".
* Group Buys rely on a minimum number of participants to procure a "special" price on items.It is not fair or good business not to pay or back out at the last minute. This will leave a bad taste in the vendors mouth, and cheat the other members out of the special price if, with you included, acheived the buy price.
* 48 hour notice if you must back out. We know things happen sometime, but a 48 hour notice is required (before the end date/time) to have yourself excluded from the group buy.Notice of exclusion will be made by public post in the group buy thread, the threads are time stamped and this will suffice as proof of 48 hour notice.
* Multiple instances of backing out of group buys will have the punishment of being banned from group buys for a time determined by Admins and/or Vendors.Warning Status will be shown by your username in every post.
* Non-Payment for your share of a group buy will carry a punishment of being Banned from our forum. Non-payment is considered Theft, and will not be tolerated.
