Visitor Agreement, Disclaimers, Philosophy, and Explanations.

Thank you for visiting carvalu.com. By using this service, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by all terms and conditions of this Visitor Agreement, including any pertinent rules or policies that are or may be published by carvalu.com or its associates. Your right to use this service is personal to you and you agree not to sell or copy, reproduce or use any of its contents for any purpose other than your personal education. You further agree not to distribute, or create derivative works from the contents of this site without the prior written authorization from the owner.

As a condition of your using this Web site, you warrant to carvalu.comthat you will not use this Web site for any unlawful purpose, including for any purpose prohibited by this Agreement. carvalu.com hereby grants you, the User, a personal, non-transferable license to view this Web site in accordance with the terms and conditions contained within this Agreement, and for no other purpose. Use of this Web site is prohibited in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation this paragraph. You agree that no partnership, agency relationship, employment or joint venture exists between you and carvalu.com as a result of your use of this Web site. If any part of this Agreement is decided to be obliterated pursuant to relevant law such as liability limitations and so on, then such invalid clause will be considered replaced by such legitimate provision that most closely resembles the aim of the particular provision and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in effect. A printed version of this Agreement shall be admissible in judicial or similar proceedings. Fictitious names, events, products, services, individuals, data, characters, companies and/or entities referenced on this Web site cannot be construed to represent any real names, events, products, services, individuals, data, characters, companies and/or entities. All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved.

1. General Provisions.

carvalu.com is an educational tool. It does not provide sale or market, or any other prices, because price is always between buyer and seller. This web site does not constitute an offer or contract other than set forth within this Visitor Agreement. The material and value judgments that appear on carvalu.com is for your own information only. Further, please be aware that patented and patent pending Non-Subjective Valuing®is a brand new science and its application requires a lot of exploration. The dollar value numbers for "Honest" Base Price™; Your Value™, True Value™, $ Value per Professionals' Consensus™, and so on are tentative and research and updating of the data is continuing as you are reading this.

When you use this material for any purpose other than for your own private understanding, you agree to hold carvalu.com and owner Tommy Vig and all of his associates harmless for any and all liabilities or damages, claims, expenses, including attorneys' fees, of both you and any third parties arising out of your such use. You further agree to hold carvalu.com harmless if due to your use of our service carvalu.com is threatened with a suit by a third party. In any event, we may seek written assurances from you concerning your promise to indemnify us, and your failure to provide such written assurance may be considered by us to be a breach by you of this Visitor Agreement. Despite our efforts to provide effective and meticulous information, errors (including mathematical, typographical and factual) may appear and omissions may occur for which we expressly disclaim responsibility. Before you buy or lease SUVs or any goods or services you've read about on carvalu.com, you should confirm with the seller any and all information that is important to your purchasing decision and test drive the vehicle. Please see further disclaimers below, including #4.

carvalu.com is not responsible for, and does not guarantee the performance, quality, or selling price of any SUV or any goods or services. After keying in their preferences, some users may be initially surprised at the results our system produces. Since the carvalu.com central computer manages more than 3000 correlations in case of these best-selling SUVs, eye-opener results should be expected. After all, if you knew all about these SUVs, plus everything about your own preferences, and how to reconcile these two sets of details, you would not need this service in the first place.

The price and all other terms of any sale or lease always remain subject to direct negotiation between the buyer and the seller.

carvalu.com respects the privacy of its users, and aims to use the Internet for something really new, to provide users with personalized dollar numbers one cannot get in a library, or from anywhere else.

If you disagree with the philosophy, the premise or any material you find on carvalu.com, we respectfully suggest that you not use the service and invite you to bring to our attention any element you believe to be inaccurate.

2. Philosophy and Explanations, including a note about inevitable imitators.

The Web is a developing medium. We have never seen any buying guide provide the kind of information our patented and patent pending service produces, that is, the calculation of the monetary worth of an SUV (or anything else, for that matter), other than what it might sell for. Generally, the method of market research tells us what people who know very little about a product pay for it. By definition, those numbers cannot possibly reflect the true monetary value of the probed entity. Market research deals with market price.

We expect a number of counterfeit imitators to attempt to cash in on this patented and patent pending discovery by promoting similar methods that supposedly provide you with true dollar value independent of price. If they are not licensed by us, they simply cannot provide you with the scientific numbers we do. Patented and patent pending, true Non-Subjective Valuing® can only be done one way. Ours.

The basic discoveries incorporated in this unique, patented and patent pending science include that price and value have always been very different concepts. We at carvalu.com try to make the User an instant expert in his or her own terms. To perfect the system does take time. We need and ask for your understanding and support. The aim is to make this site the nightmare of those automobile advertisement agencies and clever salesmen who propose to mislead.

Improving Democracy.

carvalu.com (and the other innumerable Non-Subjective Valuing® applications that follow) allows consumers, dealers, providers of goods and services and manufacturers to learn the true monetary value of something based on what it is, has and does, not on anything else. We think that those are the qualities for which buyers want to pay, not for subtle promotion, biased and openly partial commercials, unfair bonuses for company executives, exceedingly high labor costs and/or undeserved monetary awards to successful salesmen. Patented and patent pending Non-Subjective Valuing® wants to see manufacturers improve a product, not the marketing of it.

If one can visit our site to learn the true value of a product, then self-serving ads and misrepresenting salesmen will become less important market factors.

As Sigmund Freud might say: the ultimate subconscious wish of both seller and buyer is to get everything for nothing. What car salesman would refuse to accept from a willing buyer $100,000 for a car on his lot for which he had paid $10,000 the day before? Given a willing seller, what buyer would refuse to purchase that car for $1000? But if both buyer and seller are ideally informed about the actual monetary importance of something: all honest traders win.

Patented and patent pending Non-Subjective Valuing® answers the challenge of asymmetric information in the market place.
