Business InformationHistory/background
ACityDiscount opened in 1973; the original owner had been a restaurateur and decided to use his knowledge to sell used restaurant equipment.
The current owner joined the family business in 1977. Throughout the 70's & 80's the business thrived selling used foods service equipment furniture.
The business evolved in 1999 when ACityDiscount sold some used merchandise on eBay & became aware of the market for new foodservice equipment. Negotiating deals with manufacturers, we began to sell new equipment on eBay. The results were so successful, that in 2002 ACityDiscount closed its walk-in retail operation to develop its eBay Store and extend its online presence.
Today, ACityDiscount is an eBay Titanium PowerSeller. We employ staff to fulfill new merchandise orders & source and ship used inventory. As ACityDiscount approaches its 35th year, a third generation has joined the family-owned business, to ensure the company remains one of the top sellers of new & used restaurant equipment.
Payment policy
Paypal is the preferred payment method. We also accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express drawn from U.S. banks. Money Orders and Certified Bank Checks are also accepted however these forms of payment tend to slow down the order process.
Shipping information
Actual shipping charges can be calculated before you bid on an item through the Shipping Calculator, available on each auction page.
Orders are usually shipped 5-10 business days after payment has been processed and the order confirmed, unless otherwise noted in the item's listing. However, due to potential stock issues, orders may occasionally take 4-6 weeks to ship from a manufacturer.
We can arrange shipping, crating, and packaging of your order (normally performed by third parties). Standard packaging for heavy items consists of securing the item to a pallet with metal strapping, black plastic wrap, and/or (depending on item) bubble wrap, and warning labeling, providing significant deterrent to damage. Standard packing charges do not include additional protective crating or box construction. These services are available at an additional charge.
Return policy
We participate in Square Trade's Seal Program. If you do have an issue, please allow us an opportunity to address your concerns before posting a negative feedback. We make every effort to maintain happy customers and to proactively address your concerns to result in a mutually satisfactory conclusion.

eBay Awards
ACityDiscount was honored at the 2003 eBay Seller Summit with the Best Merchandiser award. eBay noted how ACD has been aggressive in their investment into various merchandising techniques such as being the first seller on eBay to adopt the use of the Keyword program as well as being a pilot member of eBay's Co-Op Advertising Program. ACD was also one of the first to incorporate eBay's Equipment Financing Program. In addition to overall seller performance, ACD also received high marks for auction layout and usability; cross promotion of auction assists the customer to find the item they need faster. The development of an integrated shipping calculator, which is featured on each auction page, can calculate a customer’s shipping charge before placing a bid, simply by adding their delivery zip code.
