Hello everyone,
We have come up with a set of rules that will be in effect for all group breaks. Before you can participate in a group break you need to respond to the poll in this thread.
Please read all rules carefully, if you should have any questions please let me know.
1) Group Breaks are to be held by moderators only.
2) Team/subset reservation/selection is on a first-come/first-serve basis, and will be judged by timestamps on individual reservation posts.
3) Once a team/subset is reserved by a member, that decision is final, there will be no editing of reservation/selection posts or changing teams. Make your decisions carefully!
4) Teams may be sold or traded to another member only after the selection is paid for by the original purchaser. The suggested trade or sale value being that of the original cost of team(s).
5) Payment is due by PayPal only, unless previous arrangements have been made with the break's organizer. Do not reserve a team if you cannot pay by PayPal and have not made other arrangements. Payment must be made within 3 days of reservation. Special arrangements may be made with the break's organizer. If payment is not made within the specified time period, the team(s) reserved, will become available to other members again, unless special arrangements have been made.
6) In the case of non-payment for team(s) reserved, that team(s) will be offered for resale in the last 24 hours before the box break. In the case of non-resale of the specified team(s), the team lot(s) will be:
a. Placed into a random contest to be held within 48 hrs of the box break, open only to participants in that particular break.
b. Held solely by the organizer (Mod) - To be determined at the organizer's (Mod) discretion.
7) In the case of players not assigned to an offered team or subset in the product (unsigned, undrafted etc...), those cards will be
a. Placed into a special contest pool to be awarded during a contest open to only participants of the break.
b. Held solely by the organizer (Mod) - To be determined at the organizer's (Mod) discretion.
8) In the case of a card pulled featuring two or more players on different teams there are 2 options (up to the organizer of the break.
a. the card will go to the person who reserved their team(s) first. Order of reservation will be determined by the time stamp on the reservation request post. (Example: If a Dual autograph card is pulled featuring a player from the Lions and a player from the Steelers, and the teams were reserved in this order: Lions at 12:01 pm, Steelers at 12:03 pm, the card will go to the member who purchased the Lions.) In the event of multiple posts with the same time stamp, the order of post, (as determined by the site software), will determine the order of reservation.
b. the members who have reserved the teams depicted on the card will be placed into a randomizer to determine the owner. If the card features more than 2 teams, and 1 member has multiple teams on the card, that member will be in the randomizer that many times.
9) In the case of a card pulled with no team denoted on the card, the player jersey will determine the team. If there is no team denoted and no jersey those cards will be
a. Placed into a special contest pool to be awarded during a contest open to only participants of the break.
b. Held solely by the organizer (Mod) - To be determined at the organizer's (Mod) discretion.
10) Any disputes arising from the results of the break will be referred back to these rules. There will be no deviation from the rules at any time. In the case of a dispute involving something not covered by these rules, any decision made by the organizer (Mod), to settle the dispute, will be final.
