Item Condition Notice

Most items sold by Closet Remix Co. come from estate cleanouts, move-outs, or storage locker finds. Many items may have been stored for long periods of time before we acquire them.

We lightly wipe down or clean items when appropriate, but many vintage items are intentionally left in their original condition so buyers can restore, clean, or preserve them as they prefer.

Because of the nature of estate and storage finds, we cannot guarantee long-term lifespan, but we test basic functionality where possible and disclose any known flaws.
