The Charter
A marketplace that works for distributors.
Most marketplaces eventually turn on the people who stocked them. PartsCity is built so that doesn't happen. These are the rules we hold ourselves to — in writing, on every product page, forever.
We don't sell direct.
PartsCity does not warehouse, fulfill, or own inventory. Every order on this marketplace ships from an independent distributor — never from us.
We never private-label.
No PartsCity-branded SKUs. No house brand competing with the OEM lines you already carry. The brands listed are the brands shipped.
We don't share your pricing.
Your contract pricing, margins, and customer list belong to you. We don't sell distributor data to manufacturers, brokers, or competitors.
We don't undercut on price.
Distributors set their own prices. We do not surface artificial discounts or run loss-leader promotions that pressure your floor.
Verified distributors only.
Every storefront on PartsCity is a vetted, authorized distributor. Buyers see your name, your location, and your ship time — front and center.
You own the customer.
When a contractor buys from your storefront, they're your customer. Repeat orders, support, returns — all you. We're the storefront, not the seller.
Run a distribution business?
List your inventory on PartsCity and reach contractors in your service area. No setup fees. No private-label competition. You ship — we send the work.
