Our Grading Process
Each item is inspected by our warehouse team. We remove damaged goods, test zippers/snaps, and sort into:
- New - (New w/ tags, New-in-bag, New old stock)
- Very Good - Minimal signs of use. These items may have slight wear or minor cosmetic imperfections, but overall, they are in excellent shape.
- Good - used but are still in good working condition. These items may show moderate signs of wear, such as fading, scuffs, or small repairs. Despite these cosmetic flaws, Good condition military surplus items are fully functional and offer reliable performance.
- Defect - Heavily used and may require some repairs or refurbishment. These items may have substantial wear, tear, fading, stains, and other cosmetic flaws.
Sustainability Matters
We divert over 50 tons of high-quality gear from the waste stream annually, supporting circular economy goals and giving your customers authentic, durable products with a story.

Let customers speak for us
The holster is in Bitchin condition and the 5pc load carrier is also in great condition thanks. Will definitely be ordering more products.
Haven't used it yet, but being a old ass boy scout, it will come in handy someday. Thank you
I pl a n on using canteen in summer for fog walks, the fire starters just a back up . Thank you
I was happy with the kit I received for the money spent and I feel like everything arrived in a timely manner. Thanks again!
I'd consider it very good condition. Only a few loose threads to cut and burn down. Amazing condition, fast shipping
If you have ever had a woobie, you know the value of these. The ones I received were color blemishes but in great shape and had same utility at a quarter of the cost. Shipping and communication was quick, thorough, and detailed.
I found these to be a great bargain and would confidently order again.
