Alım Prosedürleri

En önemli satın alma prosedürleri nelerdir?


It is the buyer’s responsibility to contact the seller.

Buyers must identify themselves as BBE clients when they call or they may be considered a cash customer. The buyer should only speak with the contact person listed in the seller’s BBE Marketplace company description and/or the contact name given to them by the barter brokers.

Buyers are encouraged to get written estimates before the work begins if the trade involves special orders, construction jobs, service work, or long-term leases, and/or other work-in-progress trades.

The buyer presents his or her barter card to the seller at the time of purchase. However, if the buyer is paying with gift cards, gift certificates, and/or scrip, it is not necessary to present a barter card.

Sellers will provide their goods and services at their prevailing retail prices for 100% trade to buyers in good standing.

All taxes and tips are to be paid in cash by the buyer to the seller.

The buyer's account will be debited for the amount of the purchase when the BBE Trade Department issues the authorization number to the seller. BBE is not responsible for honoring authorizations granted due to any misrepresentations made by buyer or seller. BBE reserves the right to refuse to issue an authorization number approving a transaction if the buyer does not have a sufficient barter dollar balance, if the buyer’s account is past due on cash fees owed, and/or if either party is not a client in good standing.

Buyers must sign a completed 3-part form when the job is finished. They buyer’s signature acknowledges satisfactory receipt of the products and services described on the 3-part form and authorizes BBE to debit the buyer’s account in accordance to the BBE Trading Policies and Procedures.

Restaurants, golf courses, and establishments that sell food only accept scrip, gift cards and/or gift certificates for payment. Scrip, gift cards, and gift certificates can be ordered online in the BBE Marketplace or via phone by calling the BBE office. It is not necessary to complete a 3-part form when these certificates are used at these establishments.

The buying client should obtain a written estimate from the selling client before authorizing the work to begin for all purchase over five hundred ($500) barter dollars. The sellers may choose to obtain a work-in-progress deposit / down-payment in barter dollars in the same non-refundable manner as a cash transaction. This is done with a 3-part form and work-in-progress authorization number. Work-in-progress deposits and down payments are considered normal trades.

It is imperative that clients always identify themselves as a BBE client before they purchase products and services on barter. Clients who charge other BBE clients cash for their products and services who have not notified the BBE Trade Department in writing that their account is “on hold” prior to sale will be charged a twenty-five (25%) percent cash transaction fee on the total amount of the cash sale. It is the buyer’s responsibility to contact the BBE office when this happens.
