Industrial plant consruction
This is in an employee handbook, in a section where the company provides discounts to employees for buying certain company products. This section is titled "Productos discontinuados o de ***segunda selección***". I know what it means, but what is the usual way of saying this in the USA?
It's not "second hand" goods, but rather those that can't be sold as new to customers due to minor defects, having been opened already, etc.
Is it "B Class" or "B Grade" or "Shop Soiled" or something like that?
