Warning Affects: condition data quality

Fix “Missing condition” on Pinterest Catalog

Pinterest expects condition (new, refurbished, used) for catalog items. Missing condition defaults to 'new' in some surfaces but suppresses filterable visibility.

What you see in Pinterest Catalog:

Missing condition

Pinterest expects condition (new/refurbished/used). Missing defaults to 'new' in some surfaces but suppresses filterable visibility.

Default to 'new' for most items. Refurbished/used flagged explicitly — Pinterest classifies them into different competitive sets.

    Mixed-condition catalog (reseller of refurbished) without condition mapping

How to fix it

  1. 1

    Default to 'new' for most items

    Unless you're a reseller dealing in refurbished or used, default condition: new.

  2. 2

    Populate genuine non-new items explicitly

    Refurbished and used items must be flagged correctly — Pinterest classifies them into different competitive sets.

  3. 3

    Refresh feed

    Pinterest reflects within 24 hours.

FAQ

Should condition match across channels?

Yes — condition is product-truth, not channel preference. If it's refurbished, it's refurbished everywhere.
