What is a factory second?

A factory second is a product that has minor defects or imperfections that prevent it from being sold as a first-quality item. These defects could be cosmetic, such as scratches, dents, or discoloration, or functional, such as missing buttons or a misaligned seam.

Factory seconds are typically sold at a discounted price compared to first-quality items. They are often sold through outlet stores, online marketplaces, or warehouse sales. Despite their defects, factory seconds are usually still functional and can be a good option for those looking to save money on a particular item.

It's important to note that factory seconds are sold "as is" and typically do not come with a warranty or guarantee. Customers should inspect the item carefully before purchasing to ensure that they are comfortable with any imperfections.
