Fees Explained with ULTIMZ

Q1: Do I have to pay customs fees?

A: Whether you’re in the European Union (EU) or located outside of it, understanding customs fees and import taxes is essential to a smooth purchasing experience on ULTIMZ. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how these factors apply to different scenarios:

1. I live in an EU country but the object is coming from outside the EU: If you’re based within an EU country and purchase an object that is shipped from within the EU, you generally don’t need to pay customs duties or import taxes. ULTIMZ adheres to European regulations, ensuring a seamless cross-border shopping experience. However, it’s advisable to check the list of EU countries and their specific regulations for verification.

2. I live in an EU country but the object is coming from outside the EU: Orders shipped from outside the EU might incur customs duties, import taxes, and fees specific to your country. These charges are typically applied upon the object’s arrival in your country, and ULTIMZ has no control over them. It’s important to note that the buyer is responsible for paying any additional charges associated with customs clearance.

For objects purchased from non-European countries, it’s essential to familiarize yourself with the relevant customs rules and procedures. You can determine the country of shipment by checking the seller’s country displayed on the object’s page.

3. I live outside of the EU: If you reside outside the EU, your shipments are likely to be subject to customs duties, import taxes, and fees based on your country’s customs regulations. ULTIMZ respects each country’s customs policies and has no influence over these fees. It’s crucial to be aware of your country’s specific rules and charges related to importing objects.

Important Considerations:

  • Sellers are not accountable for any customs charges or fees after their package leaves their country.
  • If you’re uncertain about customs fees, it’s advisable to contact your local postal or customs office for clarifications.
  • Failure to pay customs charges may prevent you from receiving your object. If unpaid, the object could be returned to the seller. If re-shipping is agreed upon, you’ll need to cover customs charges and return shipping costs. Please note that cancellation requests under this circumstance may not be valid.

ULTIMZ aims to provide transparent information regarding customs-related matters to ensure a smooth and informed shopping experience for all buyers. If you have any further questions or need assistance, our support team is available to assist you.

Q2: Why was there a ULTIMZ charge on my credit card?

A: Understanding charges on your credit card during the bidding and auction process is crucial for a seamless experience on ULTIMZ. Here’s an in-depth explanation of why charges might appear and how they are managed:

1. ULTIMZ Charge on Credit Card: At times, an ULTIMZ charge may appear on your credit card due to the nature of our bidding process. This charge is related to the reservation of funds on your card, especially when you place bids on objects. Rest assured, we always seek your consent before initiating this process. Several reasons can trigger an ULTIMZ charge:

  • If you’re a new customer without prior purchases.
  • If your account lacks important information.
  • If you’re placing bids on multiple objects, and the combined total bids exceed €1,000.

You can find further information about this bidder guarantee on our platform.

2. Increasing Bids on High-Value Objects: If you increase your bid on a high-value object, the reserved amount on your card will also increase to match your new bid. This amount is capped at €1,000, regardless of your bidding activity or the number of objects you’re bidding on simultaneously. For other currencies, an equivalent amount to €1,000 is used as the cap.

3. Result of the Auction: If you’re not the top bidder at the auction’s end, the reserved payment is usually released within a week, depending on your bank’s policies.

If you’re the top bidder and the sale proceeds, the reserved amount will be deducted from your final invoice. You can then pay the remaining amount within 3 business days.

4. Sale Cancellation or Payment Delay: If the sale is canceled, the reserved amount will be released within 10 business days from the auction’s conclusion.

If you’re the top bidder but fail to pay on time, the auction fees (up to €1,000) will be charged to your card, and any remaining reserved payment amount will be released.

ULTIMZ maintains these processes to ensure a secure and trustworthy environment for all bidders. If you have further questions or require assistance, our dedicated support team is available to help.

Q3: My order was cancelled but I still have to pay the Buyer Protection fee. Why is this?

A: When an order is placed on ULTIMZ, the bids are considered binding, as outlined in our Terms of Use. If your order is canceled due to non-payment within the specified timeframe, certain consequences follow, including the Buyer Protection fee. This fee is charged to ensure the integrity of the bidding process and to compensate the seller for any losses incurred.

Here’s why you may still be required to pay the Buyer Protection fee even after your order is canceled:

Binding Bids: All bids you place on ULTIMZ auctions are considered a commitment to purchase. If you fail to pay for a winning bid within the given timeframe, the seller has the right to re-list the item for auction, and you are liable for the Buyer Protection fee.

Payment Due: If your order is canceled due to non-payment, the Buyer Protection fee becomes due as a part of the process. Not paying this fee may result in account restrictions until the fee is settled.

Fee Payment Process: To settle the outstanding Buyer Protection fee, log in to your ULTIMZ account. Visit the ‘Orders’ section under the ‘Unpaid’ tab. Here, you can select and pay the outstanding fee. Once paid, any account restrictions will be lifted, allowing you to continue using our platform.

Account Deletion: If you wish to delete your ULTIMZ account, you must settle any outstanding fees before doing so.

Please note that payment of outstanding fees is currently possible only through the web version of our platform. We encourage you to adhere to our bidding and payment guidelines to ensure a smooth experience on ULTIMZ. If you have further queries or need assistance, our support team is available to help.

Q4: What is the Buyer Protection fee?

A: At ULTIMZ, we aim to provide you with a safe and secure buying experience, ensuring the authenticity of objects and the reliability of sellers. To support these efforts and enhance our platform, we charge a small fee known as the Buyer Protection fee.

Purpose of the Fee: The Buyer Protection fee is designed to serve multiple purposes:

Safety and Verification: This fee allows us to maintain high-quality standards by verifying sellers and ensuring that objects are reviewed by experts. Your payments are safeguarded, contributing to a secure transaction process.

Platform Enhancements: The fee contributes to platform improvements, enabling us to introduce new features, partnerships, and exciting ways to discover objects. We’re committed to enhancing your experience on ULTIMZ.

Calculation Method: The Buyer Protection fee is calculated based on the final bid amount plus a fixed amount. Specifically, it is 8% of the final bid amount plus €3. For instance, if the final bid on an object is €100, the fee would be calculated as follows:

  • 8% of €100 = €8
  • Adding €3 = €11

Therefore, in this scenario, you would be charged €11 for the Buyer Protection fee. It’s important to note that this fee includes applicable VAT.

Exclusions and Additional Costs: The final bid amount used for calculating the fee does not include shipping costs. Shipping costs are separate and are not factored into the calculation of the Buyer Protection fee.

Additionally, please be aware that there could be other potential costs associated with purchasing objects on ULTIMZ. For instance, if you’re buying from an international seller, customs fees and import VAT might apply.

We’re committed to transparency and ensuring that you have a clear understanding of all associated costs. If you have any questions about the Buyer Protection fee or other costs, feel free to reach out to our support team for assistance.

A: No, you can typically use only one voucher per order on ULTIMZ. Voucher usage is generally limited to one voucher per transaction. This means that when you are checking out and applying a voucher to your order, you can choose one voucher to use for that particular purchase.

It’s important to note that attempting to use multiple vouchers for a single order is not supported.
