A shared language
for every piece.

The biggest barrier to buying salvage online is not knowing what you're getting. Our condition rubric gives buyers confidence and sellers fewer disputes.

Excellent

Fully functional, minimal cosmetic wear. Can be installed as-is. Finish largely intact. No cracks, warps, or missing parts.

Example: Solid oak door, original finish, minor surface scuffs only.
Good

Functional with visible wear or minor repairs needed. May require refinishing, cleaning, or hardware replacement.

Example: Leaded glass panel, leading intact, one cracked pane in corner.
As-Is

Sold for parts, restoration projects, or decorative use only. Significant wear, damage, or missing components — fully disclosed in photos.

Example: Cast iron radiator, surface rust, functional but needs refinishing.

Built for two sides
of the same transaction.

"I watched a 1920s greystone get gutted during a demolition — solid oak doors, original brass hardware, leaded glass transoms — all going into the dumpster. There was no easy place to sell them. That's the problem Reclaim fixes."
