Buy Back Program T&CsUpdated 4 hours ago
Terms and Conditions
Effective Date: September 25, 2025
1. Introduction
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern participation in the Darc Sport Buy Back Program (“Program”). By participating, you agree to be bound by these Terms, which are in addition to, and do not affect, the Darc Sport Returns Policy or any legal rights you may have under applicable laws.
2. Program Overview
The Darc Sport Buy Back Program is a limited-time offer whereby Darc Sport repurchases select items from its exclusive “1 of 500” drops in exchange for a high-value payout (amounts vary by item and edition number, and will be posted on the Buy Back Program page). Eligible items and edition numbers will be explicitly listed on the official Buy Back Program webpage.
3. Eligibility
Participation in the Program is limited to verified Darc Sport customers whose accounts are in good standing.
The following parties are expressly excluded from participation:
- Darc Sport employees
- Relatives of employees
- Influencers, brand ambassadors, or any individuals affiliated with Darc Sport.
4. Eligible Products
Only items listed on the official Darc Sport Collectibles Buy Back Program page qualify. Eligible edition numbers will be clearly displayed next to each product. Submissions for items or edition numbers not listed will be rejected.
5. NFC Chip
All items in the Program are required to have an intact NFC chip for authentication. If you receive an item with a damaged or missing NFC chip, you must report the issue within 7 days of receiving the item. Failure to report within this timeframe means we will be unable to reissue a new NFC chip. This policy is consistent with our standard 7 day damage reporting policy and ensures fairness and consistency across all claims.
6. Condition Standards
Eligible products must be free of excessive wear, tears, stains, alterations, or other damage. Items not meeting these condition requirements may be rejected during physical inspection.
7. Submission Process
To participate, customers must:
- Visit the Darc Sport Collectibles webpage.
- Find your product from the list of eligible items.
- Complete the submission form.
- Send the item to our designated authentication team within 7 days of receiving the shipping instructions we provide.
- Agree to the terms and conditions, along with any additional requirements we may request during the process.
Upon receipt of the initial submission, Darc Sport will review the information provided and notify the participant if their item qualifies for the program.
8. Shipping
Participants are responsible for securely packaging their item and shipping it to the address provided by us in the approval email. It is strongly recommended to use insured shipping with delivery confirmation. Darc Sport is not liable for lost, stolen, or damaged items in transit. Final review will begin once Darc Sport physically receives the item.
9. Physical Inspection
Each item undergoes a physical inspection to verify condition, authenticity, NFC chip functionality, and ownership (item must be registered in your vault). If the item passes, the participant will receive a final payout form reflecting the non-negotiable final amount, with the option to receive payment via check or store credit.
Items failing physical inspection will be subject to return at the participant’s expense. Disposal will be at Darc Sport’s sole discretion, and no payout will be issued for items that fail inspection. Once an offer is accepted, the item becomes the property of Darc Sport and is removed from the participant’s vault.
10. Final Payout
Upon final approval of your submission, you will be required to sign a final payout form confirming your choice of payment method.
Gift Card or Electronic Debit Card
Payouts will be issued in the form of either a gift card or an electronic prepaid debit card, sent to the email address provided on your submission. Payouts will be issued within 7 business days of final approval.
All payouts are final once processed. No changes can be made to the payment method after the final payout form is signed. No alternative payment methods (including cash, bank transfer, or PayPal) are available.
10a. Taxes
Participants are solely responsible for any taxes, duties, or reporting obligations arising from payouts received under this Program.
11. Disqualification
Attempting to submit ineligible items, providing false or misleading information, or claiming payment for items not received will result in disqualification from the program. Darc Sport also reserves the right to permanently bar participants from future programs in cases of fraud or misconduct.
12. Communication
All official communication regarding the Program will originate from [email protected] email. Darc Sport is not responsible for communications from fraudulent sources.
13. Program Changes and Termination
Darc Sport reserves the right to modify, suspend, or terminate the Program, eligibility criteria, payout amounts, or these Terms at any time without prior notice. Participation is at Darc Sport’s sole discretion.
By submitting a product to the Darc Sport Buy Back Program, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.
