The Platform allows users who wish to sell a vehicle (each a "Seller") to create and publish a listing (each a "Listing") for other users to view. Users interested in a listed item or service (each a "Buyer") may contact the Seller through the Platform to make an offer or inquire about the Listing.
You can view Listings without registering on the Platform as a Buyer or Seller. If you would like to learn more about a Listing including details of a vehicle or its price or you would like to take any action in regard to a Listing or to access other functionalities of the Platform, you must register for an account and sign in as either a Buyer or Seller.
