What is Nordstrom Liquidation and How Can you Buy Pallets?

Nordstrom liquidation pallets typically consist of store pulled, customer returns, end of season, and other mark down products that the retailer is looking to clear out. Like most retailers, when it comes time to liquidate their merchandise, the products are stacked on pallets and sold to large liquidation companies by the truckload. Most of the time these liquidation companies are buying the merchandise on contract and are required to take all their liquidation products. Finding a good liquidation company can be a challenge but it is always a good idea to start with companies located near you. If you are able to go visit their warehouse in person that is even better. Visiting liquidation companies in person and being able to see the merchandise before buying can help minimize your risk. If you do not have the time to visit each company in person or you don’t have liquidators in your area. You may be stuck searching and sourcing online for liquidations. So now you may be wondering, what companies should you buy from if you can’t see the merchandise in person. This is where searching YouTube videos, reading reviews on Facebook / Instagram and connecting with other resellers can be a helpful tool in finding the right company for you. Now that you have narrowed down your search to a few different companies. Start small, try buying a few boxes first to get a feel for the merchandise mix from each company. Call and speak with them in person. A lot of times, these liquidation companies have a lot more available than what they are showing online.

Nordstrom Clothing Liquidation Pallets and Boxes vs JTC Auctions Apparel Boxes.

To be as transparent as possible, the apparel sold on JTCAuctions is not from Nordstroms or Nordstrom Rack. JTC Auctions liquidation apparel is from a different department store that most resellers lineup at to Retail Arbitrage and buy their mark down products before it gets liquidated. As you will see when you search through the lots available on JTC Auctions website, you will see many of these Brand names that are also sold at Nordstroms, Macys, Von Maur, and Revolve.

It really depends on the product mix and where you are sourcing from. The apparel on JTC Auctions is half that price.

Buying Clothing Mystery Boxes vs Manifested Apparel Boxes.

Mystery Boxes of apparel are a great way to source clothing at a cheaper price point. There is more risk in buying these products as you have no idea what you are getting. You should have an idea what retail store or brand names that are in your mystery box. Example: Mystery Box of Amazon Apparel, or Mystery box of Nordstrom Rack Clothing. You should have some idea what brand names you may get in your box of apparel. You probably won’t know if you are getting Fall, Winter, or Summer apparel and what sizes are in the boxes but knowing where the products are sourced or potential brand names should be a minimum. Keep in mind when you source apparel from department store liquidations, Women’s apparel is always the most common in the boxes. This is the largest section of apparel in the department stores so you should see that represented in your boxes or clothing pallets.

Manifested clothing boxes have a lot less risk when compared to buying mystery boxes. These apparel boxes typically will cost you more per piece. Keep in mind, you will still have some risk buying any type of liquidation merchandise. You are still buying liquidations which is typically store pulled or customer returned clothing. Damages can still be represented in both manifested and mystery boxes. Do your homework and talk with the company you are buying from.
