Welcome to QuickPickings!

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the website located at [https://quickpickings.blogspot.com/] ("Website") and the services provided by QuickPickings ("we," "us," or "our").

  • We are not a retailer: We do not own, sell, or inspect the items listed on this site.
  • We are not a party to transactions: Any contract for sale is strictly between the buyer and the seller. We do not transfer legal ownership of items from the seller to the buyer.
  • No Guarantee: We do not guarantee the quality, safety, or legality of the items advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings, or the ability of sellers to sell items or buyers to pay for items.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to post ads or engage in transactions on QuickPickings. By using this Website, you represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract.

QuickPickings reserves the right, but has no obligation, to monitor, edit, or remove any ad or content at our sole discretion, without notice or refund (if applicable).

  • Personal Safety: We strongly recommend meeting in public places (like a police station parking lot) during daylight hours for local transactions.
