PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW TERMS!!
About Us:
The seller is “TAGeX” or TAGeX Surplus, a division of The Advantage Group Enterprise, Inc (TAG), a Maryland Corporation.
TAG is the global leader in managing and remanufacturing food-service equipment.
Contact Info and Client Service:
The TAGeX Client Service Team is happy to answer any auction related questions. Our client service hours are Monday – Friday, 8 am to 5 pm EST. You may reach us by any of the following means:
- Through eBay’s “Ask Seller a Question”
- Via email: ebaysupport@theadvantagegroup.com
- Via phone: 800-572-4480
Item Condition:
TAGeX sells both New and Used Equipment. For used equipment, TAGeX uses three (3) classifications to describe the condition of each unit for sale. Those classifications are as follows:
- As-Is: Item has not been tested by our staff; no work has or will be done to the unit. These items carry no warranties or guarantees whatsoever.
- Cleaned and Tested: Item is tested for functionality and lightly cleaned. Any items sold under this condition can be expected to be free of external dirt and grease, and in good working order.
- Remanufactured: Item has been broken down and thoroughly cleaned by trained technicians. Damaged components are replaced; proactive replacements are made to any parts subject to regular wear. Remanufactured items carry a limited, 90-day, parts-only warranty.
Any equipment sold “As-Is” or simply “Used” is sold 'AS IS / WHERE IS' and 'WITH ALL FAULTS'. We do not guarantee any used equipment will be received in working condition.
Generally speaking, food-service establishments are notorious for grease. Some, but not all equipment is cleaned by use of pressure washing and/or other methods. TAG does not fully disassemble equipment, and some residual grease and dirt may be present. Despite our best efforts, no guarantee is made that the equipment you receive will arrive in “clean as new” condition.
*SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING REFRIGERATION EQUIPMENT: As solder ages, it becomes brittle. Solder holds refrigeration lines together. When older refrigeration is shipped on a truck, it usually bounces quite a bit. The bouncing and vibrations can cause the brittle solder to allow a refrigerant leak. A repair and recharging of the refrigerant system usually is significantly less than $100.00. Refrigerant costs technicians about $6.00 per pound. Almost all of the refrigeration systems we sell over the Internet hold less than one pound of refrigerant.
Shipping:
Before bidding on any of our items, please reference our shipping calculator for a shipping quote. TAG will only arrange shipments within the 48 contiguous United States. If you have any questions with the quote given, please contact our client service team.
All items ship from TAG’s commercial warehouse in Romulus, NY, USA. TAG is happy to arrange transport through the following means:
UPS Shipments
For tracking purposes, TAG only uses UPS Ground for common shipping purposes. We can provide tracking information upon shipment of your order. We will only send items via UPS on TAG’s account. We will not send items via UPS on another account.
Freight Shipments
TAG uses an outside, third party for all freight shipping services. Our shipping quotes are for dock-to-dock shipment only and do not include unload or delivery services.
Clients are also welcome to arrange their own transport of most items. Our hours are Monday – Friday, 8 am to 4 pm, EST. Please note that smaller orders capable of shipping with UPS must be shipped that way and are not available for pickup. Clients have the following options:
Client Pickup
Clients are welcome to pick up their freight size orders from our Romulus, NY location. We require payment 3 days in advance, and an appointment be scheduled no less than 48 hours in advance for all pickups. Clients who arrive at our facility without an appointment will be turned away. Customers must load their own purchases-TAG staff is not able to assist in loading. REMEMBER-Items must be picked up within 12 working days.

Clients are welcome to coordinate their own freight shipment of their order. The item will be strapped and secured on a standard (48x40”) wood pallet. Buyer must provide TAG with a dated Bill of Lading no less than 72 hours in advance of pickup.
