Damaged Goods (General Usage in Society)
For other uses, see Damaged_Goods_(disambiguation)

Damaged Goods may refer to:

Someone who was once healthy and/or "normal" however due to traumatic, unfortunate events in their life (e.g. Death of a loved one, emotional abuse, sexual abuse etc.) they're no longer classed as healthy and/or "normal" (c.f. to before the traumatic event) due to the changes they have undergone.

Example:

The term Damaged Goods appears in the trailer of the James Bond film Quantum Of Solace1, when one of the main characters tells James Bond & Co. that they make a good couple because they're damaged goods.

In this reference damaged goods infers that James Bond is no longer healthy and/or normal as he has suffered a traumatic event that has changed him (The death of Vespa in Casino Royale).
