Terms

The short version: Bidding takes a 20% deposit (min $10), refunded in full if you don’t win and deducted from the price if you do. The highest bid on a spot at closing time wins it, and I invoice the remainder afterwards. I check every logo by hand and can refuse one.

What is being sold

Twelve sticker spots on the console that I will own and use. Winning a spot buys you a printed die-cut vinyl sticker of your logo on that console, plus a listing on this page with a link to your site.

This is a personal project run by Abel. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.

How the auction works

• Placing a bid charges a deposit of 20% of your bid, minimum $10, by card. Deposits you have already paid on a spot count toward a later bid on that same spot, so reclaiming it after being outbid costs only the difference.
• Your bid is not visible and counts for nothing until the deposit is paid and the logo approved.
• At launch each spot has a $0 standing bid. A new bid must be at least $10 and beat the standing one by at least $10.
• A bid placed in the last 10 minutes pushes the closing time back by 10 minutes, so the auction cannot be won by bidding at the final second.
• The highest bid on a spot when the auction closes wins it, whether or not the overall goal is reached.

Paying, and what happens if you don’t

After closing I email each winner a payment link. All amounts are settled in U.S. dollars, and the prices shown are the amounts charged.

A 20% deposit (minimum $10) is charged when you bid. If you are outbid and bid again, deposits you have already paid on that spot count toward the new one, so you only pay the difference. When the auction closes, everyone who did not win a spot is refunded in full, automatically; winners have their deposit deducted from the final invoice.

The card you pay the deposit with is kept for the balance only. If your bid wins, the remaining amount — whatever the auction settles it at, which is not known when you bid — is charged to that card when the auction closes, and you get the invoice. If it does not win, the card is never charged and the deposit comes back. Should the charge fail, I send a payment link instead.

If a winner does not pay the remainder within 7 days, the deposit is forfeited and the spot goes to the next highest bidder.

Your logo

By uploading a logo you confirm you have the right to use it and to let me display and print it for this project.

I review every logo by hand before it appears, and I may accept or refuse any bid at my sole discretion, without having to justify the decision — the console is part of my livestream, and I keep the final say over what it carries. If I refuse yours, your bid is cancelled and your deposit comes back in full.

What I promise, and what I don’t

I will print your sticker, put it on the console, and use that console during my GTA 6 launch livestreams and gaming sessions. It will appear in the streams, photos and videos I publish.

I make no promise about impressions, reach, views, clicks or results. Nobody can honestly guarantee those for a console surface, and I will not invent a number. You are buying presence, not performance.

A sticker is a paid placement, not an endorsement — in either direction: I do not vouch for the brands on the console, and they do not vouch for me.

If a brand on the console later turns out to be fraudulent, unlawful or materially misrepresented, I may remove its sticker and refund the remaining time pro rata. The console is part of the stream, and I keep the final say over what it carries.

If things go wrong

If the console is lost, stolen or replaced, I will move your sticker to its replacement or refund you pro rata for the time remaining, whichever you prefer.

If I cancel the auction before it closes, every deposit is refunded in full and nothing further is owed by anyone.
