    2. In order to be legitimate to bid for an item and or use our buy-now option, you must be a registered member of i-naira.com that must have paid the mandatory NGN5,000 registration fee. Your membership allows us to more accurately identify online bidders and avoid the possibility of false bids. Bidders expressly authorize i-naira.com to accept a final bid from the bidder and hold such payment in an escrow till won item is delivered before disbursing money to the vendor. If a bidder wins a bid and unable to pay within the specified time frame, such user may not be allowed to participate in future bid activities.
    3. It is an illegality to participate in a bid process that you are unable to fulfil when you win an item because you put in the final highest bid on the item.
    4. Invoices will be registered on each successfull bidder's account on i-Naira.com. To view invoice, click HOME then click MY BIDS.

    8. Whereas all bids may start at any amount, a reserved bid item cannot be considered won until bidders enter an amount equal to or more than the reserved price on the bid. i.e. if a vendor places a reserve of N50,000.00 on a bid, until a bidder enters N50,000 or more, a winner will not emerge on the bid. Simply put, if the highest bid on such item falls below the reserved price, the vendor is not obliged to sell the item to the highest bidder.
    9. Whereas some registered customers may prefer an outright purchase option for items, such option will be communcated if available.
    10. Merchandise return/refunds: No refund - all items bid on and awarded to you as highest bidder is your property upon the final payment of your invoice to our designated account.
