1. THESE TERMS

   1.1 What these terms cover. These are the terms and conditions on which we supply Services to you.

   1.2 Why you should read them. Please read these terms carefully before you submit your order to us. These terms tell you who we are, how we will provide Services to you, how you and we may change or end the contract, what to do if there is a problem and other important information. If you think that there is a mistake in these terms, please contact us to discuss.

   1.3 Are you a business customer or a consumer? In some areas you will have different rights under these terms depending on whether you are a business (i.e. a dealer) or consumer. You are a consumer if:

   • You are an individual.
   • You are ordering Services from us wholly or mainly for your personal use (not for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession).

   1.4 Entire agreement. If you are a business customer, the applicable Guarantee (NGCcoin.hk/Guarantee, PMGnotes.hk/Guarantee, or ASGstamps.hk/Guarantee), these terms, the CCG Hong Kong Terms and Conditions of Dealer Membership (ASGstamps.hk/DealerTerms) and the applicable CCG Hong Kong Submission Form constitute the entire agreement between us in relation to our services. In the event of any conflict or ambiguity between these various documents the documents shall have priority in the order listed with the applicable Guarantee prevailing over these terms, the CCG Hong Kong Terms and Conditions of Dealer Membership and the applicable CCG Hong Kong Submission Form; and these terms prevailing over the CCG Hong Kong Terms and Conditions of Dealer Membership and the applicable CCG Hong Kong Submission Form. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any statement, promise, representation, assurance or warranty made or given by or on behalf of us which is not set out in these terms and that you shall have no claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation or negligent misstatement based on any statement in this agreement.

   2.1 Who we are. We are Certified Collectibles Group - International Hong Kong Limited, a company registered in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China (“Hong Kong, China”). Our company registration number is 1953350 and our registered office is at 1208-1210, 12/F, The Gateway, Tower 1, Harbour City, Kowloon, Hong Kong, China.

   2.3 How we may contact you. If we have to contact you, we will do so by telephone or by writing to you at the email address or postal address you provided to us in your Submission Form.

   2.4 "Writing" includes emails. When we use the words "writing" or "written" in these terms, this includes emails.

3. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU

   3.1 How we will accept your order. Our acceptance of your order (i.e. submission) will take place when we receive your collectible(s) along with a completed CCG Hong Kong Submission Form, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.

   3.2 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this in writing and will usually not charge you for our Services. This might be because you are not a member of CCG Hong Kong, because you have incorrectly filled out the Submission Form or because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for.

   3.3 Non-compliant submissions. Note that we reserve the right to reject any items submitted for our Services where the submitted items do not comply with our current standards and procedures set out on our websites. Where this applies we will usually still charge you for our Services. This is because even items that are ultimately rejected must still be received, tracked and examined.

   3.4 Your order number. Your order number (i.e. submission number) is the number that appears in the upper right corner of the CCG Hong Kong Submission Form. If we need to assign a different order number to your submission we will tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.

   3.5 Membership of CCG Hong Kong. You must be a collector or dealer member of CCG Hong Kong to submit collectibles to us. We cannot provide our Services to you if you are not a member or if your membership has been suspended for any reason.

   3.6 These terms only applicable to CCG Hong Kong. These terms are solely for submissions to CCG Hong Kong.

   3.7 Up-to-date Submission Form. These terms and our Submission Form are updated from time-to-time and it is therefore important that you use an up-to-date version of our Submission Form.

4. YOUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES

   If you wish to make a change to the Services you have ordered, please contact us. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible, we will let you know about any changes to the price of the Services, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change.

5. OUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES

   5.1 Minor changes to the Services. We may change our Services:

   (a) to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements where those changes do not have a materially adverse effect on the Services that we offer you; and

   (b) to implement minor technical adjustments and improvements, for example to address a security threat. These changes will not materially affect the Services that we offer you.

   5.2 More significant changes to our Services and these terms. If you have submitted collectibles for Services for which they do not qualify, we may change the Services and charge any additional grading, conservation and/or Services fees. If we need to change the Services because we are unable to offer the Services requested, we will notify you and you may then contact us to end the contract before the changes take effect and receive a refund for the portion of the Services paid for but has not yet been provided. We reserve the right to amend these terms and conditions from time to time at our sole discretion. By continuing to use our Services following any new amendment, you will be deemed as accepting the amended terms.

   5.3 Appearance Review. Regardless of the particular Services you requested for submitted collectibles, we reserve the right to convert any submission into an Appearance Review.

6. PROVIDING OUR SERVICES

   6.1 What will we do? We will use commercially reasonable efforts to perform the Services in accordance with the then-current description of the Services that you select as set out on our website.

   6.2 Your responsibilities. It is important that you complete all submission information on the Submission Form as completely and as accurately as possible and that you provide us with as accurate a figure for the market value of the item as possible. If we reasonably believe that the items are undervalued, then we reserve the right to charge the fees appropriate based on what we believe to be the fair market value of the item.

   6.3 Our fees and other charges. The costs of our Services will depend on the Services that you order and these together with any other fees such as shipping fees are set out on our website and the Submission Form. If items are undervalued and/or submitted for Services for which they do not qualify, we reserve the right to change our fees accordingly. Where that happens, we will try to tell you about any changes in advance but that may not always be possible because the nature of our Services means that some or all of the Services may have been performed before we realise that a different price is applicable.

   6.4 When we will provide the Services. We will begin the Services on the date we accept your order. The estimated completion date for the Services will be as set out on our websites or as told to you during the order process.

   6.5 We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the Services is delayed by an event outside our control, then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event.

   6.6 Reasons we may suspend our Services to you. We may have to suspend the supply of a Service to:

   (a) deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;

   (b) update our Services to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;

   (c) if your membership with NGC Hong Kong is suspended for any reason.

   6.7 Your rights if we suspend our Services. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending our Services to you, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. You may contact us to end the contract for our Services if we suspend it, or tell you we are going to suspend it, in each case for a period of more than 90 days and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance in respect of any Services that you have not received.

   6.8 We may also suspend our Services if you do not pay. If you do not pay us for the Services when you are supposed to (see clause 17.3) and you still do not make payment within 7 days of us reminding you that payment is due, we may suspend our Services until you have paid us the outstanding amounts. We will contact you to tell you we are suspending the Services. We will not suspend our Services if there is a reasonable dispute about an unpaid amount (see clause 17.6). As well as suspending our Services we can also charge you interest on your overdue payments (see clause 17.5) or end the contract (see clause 13.1(a)).

   6.9 Your items if payment in full is not made. We reserve the right not to return any collectibles that you have submitted to us until payment is made in full. Where payment is overdue for 180 days or more (and for which you have not reasonably disputed the amount due) you grant us a security interest in your items and agree that we may sell some or all of your items to cover our unpaid fees. We will provide you with as much notice as possible before we sell your items and we will return to you any money raised from such a sale over and above the amount due to us (including, without limitation, any interest that has built up and our reasonable expenses of making the sale). In addition to such security interest, CCG Hong Kong or the CCG Companies may hold any property submitted by you to any of the CCG Companies until you have paid in full all outstanding balances, regardless of whether such balances are related to submissions to CCG Hong Kong or a different CCG Company.

7. HOW WE PROVIDE OUR SERVICES

   7.1 Sending your items outside of Hong Kong, China. The provision of certain Services may require us to send your items to one of our affiliated companies within the Certified Collectibles Group of companies (the “CCG Companies”) outside of Hong Kong, China. The CCG Companies include, without limitation, Provenance NGC LLC d/b/a Numismatic Guaranty Company (“NGC”), a Florida, USA, limited liability company; Paper Money Guaranty, LLC (“PMG”), a Florida, USA, limited liability company; Certified Guaranty Company, LLC (“CGC”), a Florida, USA, limited liability company; Authenticated Stamp Guaranty, LLC (“ASG”), a Florida, USA, limited liability company; and Signature Authentication LLC d/b/a James Spence Authentication, a Florida, USA, limited liability company.

   7.2 Shipping of your items. Where it is necessary for us to send your items out of Hong Kong, China they will be shipped to the appropriate CCG Company for grading and/or conservation and then shipped back to us.

   7.3 Insurance for your items. You are liable for all risk or damage to items until they are received and inspected by us and it is therefore your responsibility to insure them for loss or damage in transit to us. Where we ship items outside of Hong Kong, China to one of the other CCG Companies we will ensure that they are insured against loss or damage in transit from CCG Hong Kong to a CCG Company and from a CCG Company to CCG Hong Kong based on the value that you declare on our Submission Form. If you wish us to send your items to you (rather than collect them from us) then this will be at your own risk and it is your responsibility to arrange appropriate insurance.

   7.4 Lost or damaged items. We will use reasonable care with respect to items submitted to us. However, in the event that an item is lost or damaged while in our possession or while being shipped between CCG Hong Kong and a CCG Company, we will compensate you based upon our good faith determination of the fair market replacement value of the item, in light of what we believe to be reliable current market information, except as described in clauses 7.5, 7.6, 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4 below. The amount of the compensation will be limited to the LESSER of the actual current fair market value as reasonably determined solely by CCG Hong Kong or its affiliate or the submitter’s declared value.

   7.5 Damage to fragile items. You acknowledge that certain items may be more susceptible to damage due to the state in which they are provided by you to us (for example, items that are worn, fragile, or brittle). Fragile items include coins with additive applications (such as colorized coins or coins with embedded jewels or enamel), coins encapsulated in holders other than NGC or PCGS holders, paper money encapsulated in holders other than PMG holders, and stamps encapsulated in holders other than ASG holders. Our only obligation is to use reasonable care with respect to such items and no compensation shall be paid in such cases.

   7.6 No insurance for customs confiscation or seizure. We are not able to insure your items against confiscation or seizure by customs authorities and we are therefore not able to reimburse you for the loss of your goods in the extremely rare event that they are seized or confiscated by customs.

   7.7 Reliance on submitter declared value. You acknowledge that we may rely on the declared value of the item(s) set out on the Submission Form for example on customs or mailing forms.

   7.8 IF YOU ARE A BUSINESS. This clause 7.8 only applies if you are a business.You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us and our affiliates, and all of our and their respective employees, officers, directors and agents, harmless from and against all claims, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable legal costs) relating to or arising directly or indirectly from our reliance on the declared value of an item on the Submission Form as set out in clause 7.7.

8. LIMITATIONS ON OUR SERVICES

   8.1 Limits on our Services. The nature of the items submitted to us for grading and/or conservation means that we have to place some limits on our Services. We try to keep these limits to a minimum so as to provide you with the best service possible, but those limits are as follows:

   8.2 No grade protection for NGC Conservation Services. We do not provide grade protection or any type of guarantee for collectibles submitted to us until after they have been graded and encapsulated by us. You acknowledge that the conservation Services provided by NGC with respect to a submitted item may result in a lower grade or no grade subsequently being assigned to such item by a grading company.

   8.3 IF YOU ARE A BUSINESS. This clause 8.3 only applies if you are a business. If you submit a coin for NGC Conservation Services, you waive any right to assert any form of legal claim against us (and any affiliates, divisions, subsidiaries or other corporately related entities, and our and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and assigns) with respect to a lower grade or no grade subsequently being assigned to such coin by a grading company, unless caused solely by our gross negligence or willful misconduct.

   8.4 Removing a collectible from its holder. In the event the Services involve removing a collectible from its holder (other than in the case of coins encapsulated in NGC or PCGS holders, banknotes encapsulated in PMG holders, or stamps encapsulated in ASG holders) you agree to release, waive, and discharge us and our affiliates and each of our and their directors, officers, agents and employees (all for the purposes herein referred to as “Releasees”) from all liability to you and your assigns, and covenants not to sue any Releasees with regard to any and all loss or damage arising out of our (or any Releasee’s) efforts to fulfill your request to remove the collectible from the holder, unless such loss or damage is caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct, it being understood that the holder is designed to be tamper-evident and to make removal of the collectible from the holder extremely difficult and that there is a significant inherent risk in any attempt to remove a collectible from a holder.

   8.5 Third Party Items. If you are a dealer submitting on behalf of a third-party customer, you represent and warrant that you are duly authorized to act on your customer’s behalf in any and all matters relating to the submission, including, but not limited to, the declared value of such collectibles.

17. PRICE AND PAYMENT

    17.1 Where to find the price for your Services. The price of the Services that you have ordered will be the price indicated on the Submission Form you have used when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Services advised to you is correct. However please see clause 17.2 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Services you order.

    17.2 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Services we offer may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Services' correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Services’ correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you due to our fault, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order and you will have the right to end the contract pursuant to clause 11.2(b).

You must pay for any Services that you order before we start providing them and, if you are paying by credit card, you agree that we may charge the credit card you provide on the Submission Form with all Service fees on receipt of the Submission Form, regardless of the final grading opinion provided or Services provided.

    17.4 Our right of set-off if you are a business customer. If you are a business customer you must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).

If you do not make any payment to us by the due date, we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the base lending rate of HSBC Bank plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.

    17.6 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong, please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest on the amount reasonably disputed until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.

18. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER

    18.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

    21.1 We may transfer this agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation at any time without your consent, but we will always tell you in writing if this happens (either before or after) and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.

    21.2 You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing.

    21.3 Nobody else has any rights under this contract.

    21.4 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

    21.5 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.
