Factory blemished MAY come with a very slight amount of damage or marks on the outside box, but it comes still in the original packaging and all.
DTO is the factory outlet for techtronic tools. The owners of ryobi and milwakee etc. they have an exclusive deal on ryobi to sell new at home depot. Hence the factory blemished …which are new …om DTO
Full warranty.
So no- DTO is not unauthorized. In fact they couldnt be more authorized as they are the manufacturers. Been discussed many threads on SD

For example HD buys a tool from RYOBI at $25, consumer A is willing to buy it for $100 from HD netting $75 in profit. Consumer B is not willing to purchase the tool at that price. HD takes advantage of its pricing agreement with RYOBI and buys more than it needs for its own sales, sells the rest to DTO for $50 per unit netting additional $25 per unit profit, now DTO sells it for $60 where consumer B is now a buyer. HD is now making more profit than it could on its own by picking up both customers A and B at the higher and lower price points.
There is no "source", it's simply product diversion which is when an unauthorized party is found to be selling a brand's products without permission, often in a different geographical market or through a different sales channel than was intended.
The unauthorized party in this case is DTO as they have no selling agreement with RYOBI and in this case it's not geographical but a different sales channel than intended. RYOBI would much prefer to sell to DTO directly, in the example above a tool they sell to HD for $25 they could potentially sell to DTO directly at that $50 price. It's why HD insists on the "exclusivity" and why the products are new, but marked "blemished". RYOBI is probably willing to look the other way because HD is such a huge customer.
