Wholesale FAQ - LA Vintage

We primarily offer Grade A vintage clothing—items in excellent to near-new condition, with only minor flaws like light staining or general wear. Our mixes will also include a small percentage of Grade B pieces, which could feature things like small holes, distressing, or light cracking in graphics. All pieces are inspected for resellable quality.

To keep prices low and preserve garment integrity, we do not launder our clothing before shipping. Vintage pieces may have signs of age, but we do our best to remove anything unsellable before it leaves our warehouse.

• Grade A: Excellent condition. No major flaws, stains, or tears.
• Grade B: Visible signs of wear—small holes, minor stains, or distressing. Great for upcycling or customers who love that true vintage vibe.
• Grade C: Not included in our orders unless noted. These items are often recycled or used for upcycling.

Each of our bales weighs 100 lbs, but the number of items will vary depending on the type of product. This is because different clothing types vary in weight, material, and bulk — so no two bales will ever contain the exact same item count!

Here are some general estimates:

• Jackets typically weigh 1–3 lbs each, so a 100 lb bale may contain approximately 30–100 jackets depending on the type of jacket bale ordered.
• T-shirts average 3–5 shirts per lb, so a 100 lb bale may contain approximately 300–500 T-shirts.
• Dresses average between 160- 225 pieces per bale.

Our bales are sold by the pound, not per piece. The actual number of pieces in your bale will vary based on the weight and type of clothing included and is an approximation only.

Our mixes include a natural distribution of sizes—generally S through XL—with fewer fringe sizes (XS or 1XL+). Size availability varies by category, but you’ll receive a blend reflective of what we commonly see in vintage sourcing.

We don’t currently offer customization on website orders—our pre-picked mixes and bales are packed by our expert team based on availability, ensuring quality, variety, offering you the best value.

That said, if you're looking for a more hands-on experience, we do offer handpicking options through in-person and virtual appointments (Business ID or reseller permit required):
