Stock Categories

Quality category “A”

This category includes clothing items, shoes and accessories without any defects or evident signs of use. These fashion products are still sealed in their original packaging. In fact, they are identical to the fashion apparel and footwear on sale at branded stores, high-end boutiques, retail chains and similar.

Quality category “B”

This category features products:

with slightly noticeable signs of trying on,
with minor, removable defects,
without the original packaging.

Considering that the goods showcased in retail stores are deliberately made available to be tried on by visitors, such minor defects are understandable. Customers are used to feeling the cloth’s softness between the fingertips, trying out many different overstock clothes in the dressing room and then just leaving them all over the store.

However, torn-off buttons, traces of makeup on the cloth, neglectable scratches on the shoes’ surface won’t turn off most consumers in case the respective design and size correspond to what they are looking for.

Quality category “C”

Last but not least, the “C” category consists of wholesale products with evident signs of trying on, wear, tear, repairable or unrepairable defects, which originated either during the production process or at a later stage.

The goods that are affected by more than one flaw of the “B” level also belong to this group (for instance, a polished shoe with a dirty sole and wrinkles on its upper surface).

There are no unified standards

European and North American brands, retail chains and online stores sort goods into the above-mentioned categories.

Important! Each supplier has its own standards. An overstock cloth product with the same identical flaw classified as “B” by one fashion distributor may be regarded as “C” by another vendor and vice-versa.
