Ordering
Buyer’s Responsibility
The buyer is responsible for obtaining all information necessary to make an educated decision regarding the purchase. The buyer accepts responsibility for checking applicable state and local codes and for ensuring items meets those codes before purchasing.
The buyer will not hold ACityDiscount responsible for anything not stated in the listing or included in the picture, including, but not limited to, assumptions made by the buyer or any verbal statements.
Payments
The buyer is responsible for paying for the item(s), taxes, and fees associated with their purchase. All prices on ACityDiscount.com are listed in US dollars. All orders are on a prepaid basis and payments will be processed immediately in full.
Payment may be made with American Express, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or Amazon Checkout. Customers may enter credit card information with confidence via our secure checkout.
We accept credit card payments drawn on US banks only. If you are ordering from outside the US or intend to pay with a card drawn on a foreign bank, please contact ACityDiscount.
Other accepted payment types include wire transfers, money orders or certified bank checks. Purchases made via wire transfer need pre-approval. The buyer must pay all fees charged by his bank so that ACityDiscount receives the full payment amount (in U.S. dollars). Purchases made via money orders or certified bank checks require pre-approval. This slows down the order process. If you have a deadline for receipt of order, we suggest you use another payment method.
Sales Tax
Sales tax is charged on all items received in Georgia or picked up from our warehouse. Sales tax rate is determined by the applicable tax rate of the area where the item is received. Items purchased online or in the showroom and picked up in store will be charged the 6% tax rate of this area. Sales taxes and fees for other states, as charged by our suppliers, are added to the invoice during checkout.
Please be aware there may be other sale or use tax obligations that apply to your purchase for which you are responsible.
Warranties and Condition of Merchandise
We, the seller, and all our suppliers, agree to present all items for sale as accurately as possible based on the information available to us and on our knowledge at time of posting. While we stand behind the accuracy of our listing, there may be some small details that are not included in product descriptions. Therefore is no guarantee regarding accuracy of this information.
Merchandise must be assembled, installed, and adjusted by knowledgeable, licensed, authorized and experienced personnel. Improper installations may cause malfunction and may void any warranty.
There are NO WARRANTIES of merchantability or fitness for a particular use.
Used Merchandise Condition
All USED merchandise is sold 'AS IS / WHERE IS' and 'WITH ALL FAULTS'. There is no guarantee that equipment sold as USED will arrive in clean-as-new condition or in working order.
Special Notes:
- Regarding Used Refrigeration Equipment: Because the solder holding refrigeration lines together becomes brittle as it ages, vibrations during shipping could cause it to crack and could lead to a refrigerant leak. Occasionally a item we described as cooling may no longer cool after shipping. The buyer’s cost to repair and recharge the system should be minimal.
- Regarding Used Equipment with Lighting Features: We do not certify or test the lighting features of used merchandise. We cannot guarantee the bulbs or wiring will being intact after shipping. For these reasons, we do not consider the functioning status of used equipment lighting to be grounds for return, refusal, or refund.
New Merchandise Condition
Any concerns about NEW merchandise will be limited to what is covered in the particular manufacturer’s warranty.
Misuse or mishandling of equipment can result in the manufacturer’s warranty being voided. The buyer should be aware that a commercial equipment warranty might be voided if the equipment is placed in a residential setting.
The buyer will hold ACityDiscount harmless for all matters regarding the item, including, but not limited to, any matters regarding the manufacturer’s performance per the warranty.
Shipping Selection
Shipping is available within the contiguous United States only; this excludes Alaska, Hawaii, and US territories. If you need shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, or a US Territory, please contact us.
We can ship to Canada but orders must be pre-approved before checkout. All applicable fees (e.g., Canada customs duties, taxes and customs brokerage fees) must be determined in advance of placing an international order and will be added to the order. For shipments to Canada that are self-brokered, the buyer must make ALL shipping arrangements and inform ACityDiscount of the details.
Only curbside delivery is offered. The seller does not offer or arrange for inside delivery.
Free shipping promotions are granted with the agreement that the merchandise will be kept. Any amount disclosed as Shipping Promotion will be considered as part of original shipping costs during a refund calculation.
Optional Delivery Add-ons
There are multiple services that will expedite or ease the delivery of your shipment. These are considered non-standard delivery add-ons to our standard shipping service pricing and as such each item will have a fee associated with it. Usage of these optional delivery add-ons is at the discretion of the buyer and are not required in order for shipment to take place. These non-standard add-on delivery services are available for selection in the cart and checkout. Optional delivery add-ons have fees that are not covered by free shipping promotions.
Non-Standard Add-on Delivery Services include:
- Residential Delivery: Shipping carriers offer residential address drop-off service for an additional fee. Schools, military bases, home businesses and churches are considered to be residential addresses.
- Liftgate Delivery: Liftgates are used to lower the contents of the delivery truck to ground-level. If your order contains heavy items and you do not have a loading dock, forklift, or other methods to unload the delivery, then a liftgate is recommended.
- Call before Delivery: If selected, an agent of the freight carrier will call you prior to delivery. To help you avoid potential re-delivery feeds, we recommend this service to ensure you are available to receive your shipment.
Insurance on shipments are not a standard for our shipping or delivery service. The buyer may call to discuss options and fees.
Any minimum order fees charged by suppliers will be added to the invoice during checkout.
Order Fulfillment
Shipping
Orders are shipped after processing. Please allow up to 10 business days for items to be shipped, unless noted in item listing. Generally transit of shipment is 3-5 business days but may take longer. Due to occasional stock issues or custom-made merchandise, orders may potentially take 4-6 weeks to ship. We cannot guarantee shipping times of items that are not regularly stocked in our warehouse.

These might include, but are not limited to: additional charges due to inaccurate information provided to ACityDiscount relating to the delivery, charges due to failed delivery attempt(s) by the shipping company, etc.
Any shipment that is refused or cannot be delivered and is returned by the carrier will be considered an unauthorized return.
Delivery & Receipt of Order
The buyer is responsible for inspecting the shipment during delivery by the shipping company for damages, both obvious and hidden. The buyer will accept the delivery and note on the delivery receipt any damages or concerns. If the item is damaged beyond the point of being in working or usable condition, please refuse delivery and immediately notify ACityDiscount. We will work with the shipping provider to replace the item for you.
Failure to notate any defects could result in a significant reduction in the carrier’s liability during damage claims. The buyer is responsible for filing any loss or damage claims in the manner and time frame directed by the carrier. The buyer is responsible for any concerns, issues, or charges for these shipments and agrees to hold ACityDiscount, its suppliers, and its vendors harmless.
Shipping companies do not allow third parties to file or get involved in a damage claim. ACityDiscount is a third party in the shipment of most of the items it sells. ACityDiscount will willingly assist the buyer with the filing and handling of the claims based on the buyer’s needs and requests.
