it depends, some can be "seconds" or "damaged" but many, are just store buyouts from stores that are closing down....some even have the Williams Sonoma stickers still on them.
As someone mentioned above, it may be a factory second too, just have to look. All my calphalon tri-ply that I bought from there was perfect, and most of my all-clad, with the exception of a small saucepan that has a ding in it.
I have come across many chipped le crueset cast irons though....or a lid or two that didn't fit on right. but every once in a while i find a deal too hard to pass up.
