Costoco / Sams sells us Liquidations that also consist of some "Excellent Quality" store returns and shelf pulls. "Excellent Quality" means they have decided the item is great. Usually there is a removable sticker applied to these items that say the reason it was returned or pulled from shelves. The sticker usually says "Wrong Size Purchased" / "Didn't Fit" or "Didn't Like". Sometimes there are other reasons, such as "Missing Paper Store Tags" or even "Worn. Didn't Like". Usually these items still have tags attached but sometimes they are removed.
Sometimes a Liquidation sticker is applied. The sticker can be peeled off, usually pretty easy. The sticker generally doesn't leave residue but if it does you can easily remove it with a Clorox brand wipe. Must use Clorox brand! Other brands damage the tag and leave soap residue.
Sometimes a piece appears used or may even be used. We try to remove pieces with extreme signs of wear but it is not possible for us to catch 100%.

Sometimes the item is a set and the set is missing 1 or more pieces but the remaining pieces are perfectly sellable.
Sometimes pieces have makeup, dust or deodorant or similar on it from being tried on or dropped on the floor. Makeup and deodorant can be removed without washing. If you're not sure how to remove it, simply look at the interior tag that says the material of the garment and Google search "How to remove lipstick (or whatever it is) from cotton (or whatever material) without washing"
