    This list is updated from time to time and is incorporated by reference into the User Agreement. Notice of updates to this list will be posted on the bulletin Board on the Details.at website on the day of the change. These guidelines do not constitute legal advice and do not pertain to any particular company's practices. When in doubt, check with law enforcement agencies, a lawyer, the law or with a copyright, trademark or other rights owner for clarification. Details.at also has adopted certain policies regarding prohibited items, regardless of the legality of the item.

    Why did Details.at end my auction early?

    If Details.at ends your auction early because it violates one of our stated policies, you deserve to be properly informed. Therefore, Details.at will notify both the seller and bidders via email when an auction has been ended.
