General Terms and Conditions
The AABA Market is an electronic trading website (“this website”) which provides to all members of the Australasian Alpaca Breeders Association Inc. (“AABA”) a venue for the sale, and to ABBA and non AABA members a venue for the purchase, of produce, products and any material legally allowed to be sold that is related to the management and maintenance of alpacas or alpaca farms. It is also provided to allow the sale or trading of produce from alpacas.
The sale of animals or stud services is not permitted.
This website is intended to be a friendly, enjoyable and useful experience, but as with anything concerning any kind of transactions there are risks involved and AABA and The AABA Market strongly advise you to understand all of these terms before joining. If you spot a listing that you feel is violating the general terms and conditions of this website as stated below please let us know by contacting us.
This service is free for both buyers and sellers for the time being, but it is planned to introduce a small annual fee for unlimited selling rights on this site in the near future. In such an instance, sellers must be fully financial before allowed selling rights on this website.
GST
10% GST will be added to the final bid price of all auctions unless stated otherwise by the vendor.
