From time to time, things will go wrong for some. Stocklots are a result of rejections either due to faulty production, failure to meet specifications or time schedules. Usually this results in a loss for the manufacturer and buyers, but there is a large market where such products are in demand. This is particularly because the goods may be bought at a considerable discount.

Stocklots are subject to availability. Usually the availability is very a very short period of time and there is no way that samples can be sent. Buyers are asked to either approve photographs or to see the products physically.

Goods are sold on as is basis or upon a selection of good units only.
