The Virtual Fairs organised by the Syndicat de la librairie ancienne et moderne (hereinafter referred to as "the organiser") are only open to exhibitors who are members of SLAM and who have paid their membership fee, when this is due in accordance with the SLAM statutes, or who belong to a national association affiliated to the ILAB.

The exhibitor is responsible for the creation and content of his booth, including the downloading of images, the editing of his profile, contact details, terms and conditions of sale, shipment and payment. If the exhibitor does not respond in good time for the content or does not provide the content, the organiser is not obliged to reimburse the exhibitor once his registration has been registered and processed. A registered exhibitor is automatically included in the list of advertised exhibitors, which will be visible before the opening of the Fair. New registrants will be added progressively and automatically as soon as their registration has been validated by the organiser.

Virtual booths cannot be sub-let or shared and the items presented must be the sole property of the bookseller presenting them. If the organiser is prevented from holding a Virtual Fair, for any reason whatsoever and in particular for technical reasons, he shall have the right to cancel the fair or part thereof, without any other liability to the exhibitor than a refund of all or part of the fees paid by the latter. If the virtual Fair has not started, the refund will be full ; if it has started and has had to be interrupted, the refund will be made in proportion to the time spent since its opening, should a technical problem interrupt it.

All exhibitors are required to respect the codes of ethics and code of practice of SLAM or their national associations, as well as the code of practice published by the ILAB*. The Fair rules require, among other things, the precise description of the items or objects presented, with regard to printed texts or autographs, plates, facsimiles, bindings, and their condition: restorations, replacements, missing items, etc. The works are considered complete, unless otherwise stated. This information must be included on the invoice issued to the purchaser at the time of sale. The usual conditions of distance selling apply, increased by the customs in force in the profession. Please specify your shipping and payment conditions in your general terms and conditions. The buyer's complaints remain subject to the mandatory legal provisions, to the contract governing his relationship with the member, or if he is a consumer, to the Consumer Code.
Each exhibitor is required to provide an invoice or receipt to a buyer, which contains a full description and the condition of the item(s) sold. The exhibitor must indicate the price of any item offered. "Price on request" is not permitted. The organiser reserves the right to close the account of an exhibitor who does not comply with these rules, including after the start of a Fair.
The exhibitor undertakes to update the "sold" or "reserved" books and documents in his dashboard, and not to replace the documents presented during the Fair, except to draw from his reserve as described in the section "Can I replace an item when it is sold? "; nor to change its price or description, unless there is an obvious error.
