THIS LISTING IS READY FOR DISPATCH NOW
PRODUCT PRICING - £300 PER BALE INCLUDING UK VAT - £2.70 PER PIECE (based on average pieces per bale)
PLEASE DO NOT BUY THESE IF YOU ARE NEW TO RESELLING OR HAVE NOT HAD EXPERIENCE IN RESELLING - THESE ARE NOT AN IDEAL CATEGORY FOR NEW SELLERS.
Priced at just £300 these offer great value for money and you will make massive profits from them considering they are only £2.70 per piece (based on average pieces per bale but not exact). These are the exact same bales that you buy from other wholesalers, the same risk and luck applies wherever or whoever you purchase them from, but we just charge a cheaper price for them.
These are 45kg mixed bundles which equates to roughly 90 pieces. Consists of a mixture of mens and womens brands (Premium included). Contains jumpers, hoodies, sweatshirts, knitwear, jackets, coats, sometimes on occasion joggers and trousers in small quantities. Contains Grade A, B and sometimes C items. Don’t buy this if you are not expecting to work on the clothes and remove stains and marks etc - these bales will contain items that require work.
Additionally if you want the mixed baled filmed before packing then please request this before purchasing - we used to film every single bale opening but due to how fast we have grown and there only being 2 of us who work here we simply do not have the time to film every single bale anymore - we will always gladly film upon request but it will be pushed to the back of the queue for dispatch as we have to dispatch all orders as fast as we can! Also if you want the bale sent as a full bale this must be requested before purchasing as the cost of sending a full bale is more expensive and must be paid for, otherwise they will be sent in THREE cardboard boxes, thank you for understanding!
Disclaimer/About Mixed Bales
The video is a fair representation of what you will receive and shows the quality and grade, however the items in the video are not the exact ones you will receive.
When it comes to mixed bales we try to make sure everyone understands its a gamble category and works like a lucky dip! They are a random selection of items and include some damaged items, we have somewhat a bit of control over what goes in these but not exactly what goes in! These usually get purchased for the quantity and you have more luck the more you buy ofcourse, they are very popular amongst the live auction community as they are based on volume and quantity. You’ll find a few absolute gems in there which will get you the entire cost of the bale back from their sales alone, and then the rest of the items are purely profit! Some items will often require a bit of work on them before selling, please understand the concept before purchasing! Thank you.
Additionally - we have a lot of content on our Instagram @maiasvintagewholesale if you would like to see reviews and examples of what is found within the Mixed Bales!
Refunds are NOT ACCEPTED ON MIXED BALES DUE TO THE NATURE OF THEM.

GRADING* please refer to the grading descriptions at the bottom if this item is a Leather, Denim, Nascar Jacket, Carhartt Jacket, Dickies Jacket or Workwear Category Item as grading is slightly different for these categories. Additionally please understand that vintage clothing will have general signs of wear and tear as they are all used items of clothing and some are 10, 20, 30 years old - Grade A second hand items are not the same as Grade A brand new items. For certain items and brands such as Patagonia, the North Face, Carhartt and Dickies you should expect there to sometimes be items with company logos or company embroidery - particularly the workwear categories, this is an industry wide experience as the clothes have been used prior to us obtaining them. Rarely but sometimes there may be items that have security tags attached, they can be removed upon a quick research.
General Grading
Grade A: Please understand these are second hand clothing not brand new articles and should have some wear and tear expected. No holes (tiny needle holes or pinholes are exempt and are not deemed as noticeable damage), no non-removable stains larger than a dot, no clear defects. Minimal wear and tear. Most items will have no marks whatsoever. Please note anything such as removable dirt, water dots, animal hair, floor dust, remnants of small bits of food, items being creased, inner name tags removed or written on with names etc, old smells or scents, excess fluff that can be washed and small bobbling are still acceptable as Grade A. These are considered Grade A as they are washable and removable or reflect the nature of donated clothing. Small and minor wear and tear on the inside of items or within pockets that do not affect the item's general appearance or function may still be deemed as Grade A. Zips or drawstrings with fraying or are cracked may still be deemed as Grade A unless the damage is extreme.
Grade B: Contains marks and stains that may be difficult to remove or require additional work. This includes oil, paint, bleach, dirt, or grease. May also have small but noticeable holes or snags in the fabric, broken or non-functioning zips, or zip replacements needed.
Grade C: Displays significant marks or stains that may not be removable, requiring extra cleaning or treatment. There may be large holes, tears, or snags in the fabric, along with broken, missing, or non-functioning zips needing complete replacements.
Workwear / Nascar / Jackets (e.g., Dickies, Carhartt) and Leather, and Denim items
Grade A: Stains, paint, or oil marks; may or may not be removable. Small holes, tears, light stains, or minor damage. Fully intact zips with no missing pulls. Leather may have small cracking. Denim may have creased branding logos (such as Levis) or have fading that is natural with denim. Small threads or snags in denim should be expected for second hand denim items.
Grade B: Larger marks that may be difficult to remove, such as oil, paint, bleach, dirt, or grease. Rips, holes, or snags in the fabric. Broken or missing hardware. Zips may be broken or missing pulls but remain functional. Cracking in leather, both real and faux.
Grade C: Large sized stains or marks that may be difficult or not possible to remove. Obvious holes, tears, or snags. Significant damage to the fabric. May be best for reworks or recycled projects. Zips are non-functional and require complete replacement.
About Grading
Of course both our suppliers and us are only human and mistakes can happen, our mis-grade rate is only 5%-10% to account for human error which is an extremely low margin for a wholesaler. On any rare occasion that the mis-grades are above this margin, you will always be refunded and any issues will be fixed in whatever way possible, no customer will ever have to worry about missing out because of a mis-grade.
All grading is based fairly off of the exact items we receive from our supplier. The percentages and ratios are consistently the same for every customer regarding value, womens/mens items, styles etc and bales are split fairly, for example any bale is 50% mens and 50% womens then all bundles will be 50% mens and 50% womens, the same goes for an example where a bundle is 90% one brand and 10% another brand, or 30% long sleeve and 70% short sleeve. All ratios are accounted for and all bundles are the exact same resale value. All gems are always distributed equally between the bundles. We split and grade extensively and fairly.
