Account Eligibility

By using the Mezzno.com web site (“Mezzno” or the “Site”), you (the “user” or “you” or “Customer”) agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (the “Terms of Use” or the “Agreement”), including those available by hyperlink. If you have any questions, please refer to the Contact section of the Site. Before you may become a member of Mezzno, you must read and accept all the terms and conditions in, and linked to, the Agreement. The Agreement is effective on January 1, 2021  for current users and upon acceptance for new users.

Mezzno as a Marketplace

Mezzno acts as a marketplace which allows users who comply with Mezzno’s policies to offer, sell, and buy certain food and related goods within a fixed price format. Mezzno is not directly involved in the transaction between buyers and sellers beyond marketing and store site hosting. As a result, Mezzno has no control over the quality, safety, morality or legality of any aspect of the items listed, the truth or accuracy of the listings, or the ability of sellers to sell items. Mezzno does not pre-screen users, the content or information provided by users, or vendor product quality or identity. Mezzno cannot ensure that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction.

Consequently, Mezzno does not transfer legal ownership of items from the seller to the buyer. Mezzno cannot guarantee the true identity, age, and nationality of a user. Mezzno encourages you to communicate directly with potential transaction partners through the tools available on the Site.

You agree that Mezzno is a venue and as such is not responsible or liable for any content, for example, data, text, information, usernames, graphics, images, photographs, profiles, audio, video, items and links posted by you, other users, or outside parties on Mezzno. You use the Mezzno service at your own risk.

Mezzno does not guarantee same-day or next day shipping on any order. The shipping guidelines published on this website are not guarantees

Age: Mezzno’s services are available only to, and may only be used by, individuals who are 18 years and older who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Individuals under the age of 18 can use this service only in conjunction with and under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian. In this case, the adult is the user and is responsible for any and all activities.

Compliance: You agree to comply with all local laws regarding online conduct and acceptable content. You are responsible for all applicable taxes. In addition, you must abide by Mezzno’s policies as stated in this Agreement. Password: Keep your password secure (we thoroughly encourage users to create a password at least 8 characters long, both numbers and letters, symbols, and a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters although this is not required. See “password strength” when creating a password.) You are fully responsible for all activity, liability and damage resulting from your failure to maintain password confidentiality. You agree to immediately notify Mezzno of any unauthorized use of your password or any breach of security. You also agree that Mezzno cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to keep your password secure. Account Information: You must keep your account information up-to-date and accurate at all times, including a valid email address. Account Transfer: You may not transfer or sell your Mezzno account and User ID to another party. If you are registering as a business entity, you personally guarantee that you have the authority to bind the entity to this Agreement. It is highly recommended that any businesses using Mezzno register as such, instead of using the information of the business administrator. For instance, payment accounts, such as PayPal and bank accounts, should be registered to the business under which the Mezzno shop is listed as opposed to an individual account. Right to Refuse Service: Mezzno’s services are not available to temporarily or indefinitely suspended Mezzno members. Mezzno reserves the right, in Mezzno’s sole discretion, to cancel unconfirmed or inactive accounts. Mezzno reserves the right to refuse service to anyone, for any reason, at any time.

Listing and Selling

Listing Description: By listing an item on the Site you warrant that you and all aspects of the item comply with Mezzno’s policies. You also warrant that you may legally sell the item. You must accurately describe your item and all terms of sale in your Mezzno shop. Your listings may only include text descriptions, graphics, pictures and other content relevant to the sale of that item. All items must be listed in an appropriate category with appropriate tags. Each listing must accurately and completely describe the item/items for sale in that listing.

Shop Policies: All sellers are urged to outline shop policies for their Mezzno shop. These policies may include, for example: shipping, returns, payment and selling policies. Sellers must create reasonable policies and must abide by such policies. All shop policies must comply with Mezzno’s site-wide policies. Sellers are responsible for enforcing their own reasonable shop policies. Mezzno reserves the right to request that a seller modify a shop policy for any reason.

Binding Sale: All sales are binding. The seller is obligated to ship the order or otherwise complete the transaction with the buyer in a prompt manner, unless there is an exceptional circumstance, such as: (a) the buyer fails to meet the terms of the seller’s listing (such as payment method), or (b) the seller cannot authenticate the buyer’s identity. The buyer is obligated to deliver appropriate payment for items purchased, unless there is an exceptional circumstance and in such circumstances, there will be no shipping or delivery obligation on the vendor. If a customer claims to have not received an order, a vendor/consumer dispute will be filed within the marketplace, and as such the seller will be responsible for providing tracking details not just to the consumer but also to Mezzno.

Fee Avoidance: The price stated in each item listing description must be an accurate representation of the sale. Sellers may charge reasonable handling fees to cover the costs for packaging and mailing the items. Sellers may not charge excessive handling fees or otherwise avoid fees. You may not alter the item’s price after a sale for the purpose of avoiding Mezzno transaction fees, misrepresent the item’s location, or use another user’s account without permission.

Mezzno reserves the right to investigate any user to user disputes risen and take any action on any account that is related to such disputes as Mezzno sees fit.
