Terms & Conditions

1. Overview

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of Nostalgix LLC ("Nostalgix") services, including our website, client portal, and brokerage services. By engaging with Nostalgix, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

2. Services

Nostalgix operates as a private collectibles brokerage, facilitating transactions between buyers and sellers of high-end collectibles including comics, trading cards, art, and memorabilia. Our services include:

• Private listing and matching of collectible items.
• Brokered introductions between qualified buyers and sellers.
• Escrow services for secure transaction settlement.
• Insured vault storage for high-value items.
• Buyer and seller anonymity throughout the transaction process.

3. Eligibility

Nostalgix services are available to individuals and entities dealing in collectibles with a minimum item value of $20,000. We reserve the right to decline service at our discretion. All clients must provide accurate identity and contact information during onboarding.

4. Commission & Fees

Nostalgix charges a standard commission of 10% on completed transactions. The commission is payable upon successful close of a deal. Additional fees may apply for vault storage, insurance, and specialized authentication services. All fees will be disclosed and agreed upon before services are rendered.

5. Brokerage Agreement

Prior to listing an item or entering a transaction, clients may be required to sign a brokerage agreement outlining the specific terms of engagement, including commission rates, exclusivity periods, and service scope. The brokerage agreement supplements these general Terms.

6. Listings & Representations

Sellers are responsible for the accuracy of listing information, including item descriptions, grading, provenance, and condition. Nostalgix may verify claims through third-party grading services but does not guarantee the accuracy of seller representations. All items must be legally owned and free of liens or encumbrances.

7. Escrow & Settlement

All transactions are conducted through our escrow service to protect both parties. Funds are held in escrow until item delivery and inspection are confirmed. Nostalgix is not a party to the sale — we act as a facilitator and fiduciary intermediary. Dispute resolution procedures are outlined in the brokerage agreement.

8. Confidentiality

All client information, transaction details, and communications are treated as strictly confidential. Clients agree not to disclose the identity of counterparties, deal terms, or proprietary Nostalgix processes to third parties without written consent.

9. Client Portal

Access to the Nostalgix client portal is provided on an invitation basis. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your login credentials. Portal access may be revoked at our discretion. The portal is provided "as is" and we do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.

10. Limitation of Liability

Nostalgix acts as an intermediary and does not take ownership of items or guarantee the completion of any transaction. We are not liable for losses arising from item condition disputes, market value fluctuations, shipping damage (beyond insured amounts), or counterparty default. Our liability is limited to the commission earned on the relevant transaction.

11. Intellectual Property

All content on the Nostalgix website and portal, including text, graphics, logos, and software, is the property of Nostalgix and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. Client-uploaded media remains the property of the client but is licensed to Nostalgix for use in facilitating transactions.

12. Termination

Either party may terminate the client relationship at any time with written notice. Termination does not affect obligations arising from pending or completed transactions. Commission obligations survive termination for deals initiated during the engagement period.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington. Any disputes arising from these Terms or our services shall be resolved through binding arbitration, unless otherwise specified in a brokerage agreement.

14. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Clients will be notified of material changes through the client portal or via email. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

15. Contact

Questions about these Terms may be directed through our inquiry form or to your assigned broker.
