Factory Blemished, 2nds & Reconditioned Items
Q: What exactly does “Factory Blemished”, "Factory 2nds" or “Reconditioned” mean?
"Factory Blemished", "Factory 2nd" or "Reconditioned" refers to a product with a flaw that prevents it from being sold as "new" or 1st quality.
Q: What types of flaws do Factory 2nds usually have?
All flaws vary per item. If you are worried about purchasing a Factory 2nd item, you have 45 days to send it back if you are not satisfied (remember you pay the return shipping). The most common flaws include the following:
-Sewing problem (it will be fixed but may not look as nice as a new one)
-Fabric stain (often happens when dying the fabric and usually can’t be fixed)
-Slightly used (as a display in stores, photo shoots, test runs,
or returned by a customer for some reason and repaired)
-Missing minor parts (pegs, gear loft or instructions)
We recommend that if you are worried about any of these flaws
that you purchase a new item instead. If you think you can live with a
less than perfect product and you want to save money, give a Factory 2nd
item a try.
Q: What kind of warranty does a Factory 2nd have?
Factory 2nds do not carry a warranty, but you have 45 days to determine if you are pleased with the item or return it to us. We sell every 2nd that we receive and do not want to mislead you about the condition of an item.
Q: Can you look through all your 2nd products and pick the best one for me?
We are not able to go through our entire stock each time we ship a product. Every Factory 2nd is inspected and deemed sellable before we list it for sale on our website. All Factory 2nd items have some flaw, or they would not be considered a Factory 2nd. For tents, we don’t include missing small accessories (tent pegs, gear lofts, etc), but we do include the major accessories.
Q: Is it possible to be added to a list to get a Factory 2nd of a specific product?
Unfortunately we are no longer are able to offer this service.
Q: What happened to the Factory 2nd tents you used to list on www.outdooroutlet.com?
At this time we are unable to purchase Factory 2nd tents to refurbish and resell. We are unsure as to when these will become available to us again, but you can check back periodically as we hope to offer these items in the future.
