Q: What condition should I expect to receive my items in?

A: Unless otherwise noted in the individual lot listing, the majority of our liquidation lots are from overstock, clearance or close-out.

The reason for being removed from shelves may be as trivial as a new package design from the manufacturer (many stores are under contract to only sell items with the latest packaging).
