F.A.Q's

What is Amazon Warehouse Deals?
From Amazon: Get deep discounts on open-box, like-new, refurbished, or used products that are in good condition but do not meet Amazon.com's rigorous standards as "new".

Warehouse Deals is part of amazon that has open box, new but with damaged packaging product aka "dinger" and trade ins in generally like new condition. They are considered 3rd party by affiliation and as such the "Amazon Warehouse Deals" distinction but are still part of Amazon.

Is the Amazon Warehouse Deals return policy the same as Amazon's return policy?
Yes! All purchases are eligible for Amazon customer service and 30 day return policy.

I'm using the games sort by console link, and the games will not sort by price properly. What is wrong?
You aren't doing anything wrong, the sort by price feature on Amazon is broken during restocks and or when pricing algorithm goes haywire. During those times, prices don't adjust and assimilate with the current inventory quickly enough to show the sorting as such

I'm waiting for a ps4, xb1, 360, ps3, 3ds, or PS Vita to pop up.. What time do they usually appear?
They can show up any time, the best way to find it is have the item tabbed on your browser, and download an auto refresh app and frequently check it, and or set alerts... Sometimes they will not pop up on amazon warehouse deals storefront, you will need to check the "used" section of the item

Why did all the prices of games randomly jump up?
Games on warehouse deals generally go on a cycle. They will get extremely low, great deals.. Then they will jump back up and restart the cycle of falling in price again.

I have a gaming credit and/or an Amazon gift card. Can both of these be applied to Warehouse Deals orders?
Gift cards can be applied to orders made on warehouse deals, however video game credit is only good for items shipped and sold by "amazon.com", warehouse deals does not count as this.

What was Penny Deals?
In early September of 2011, tons of newer release, more expensive games popped up for 1 penny each. Many CAG members placed orders, expecting them to get cancelled. Some were cancelled, however many CAGS got a large amount of games for a penny each. There has been no confirmation what exactly happened and why these games were sold for a penny.

What states does Amazon charge sales tax?
Items sold by Amazon.com LLC, or its subsidiaries, and shipped to destinations in the following states are subject to tax:

Arizona
California
Connecticut

Florida
Georgia
Indiana
Kansas
Kentucky
Massachusetts
Nevada
New Jersey
New York
North Carolina
North Dakota
Pennsylvania
Tennessee
Texas
Virginia
Washington
West Virginia
Wisconsin

Note: No sales tax is charged when purchasing gift cards; however, purchases paid for with gift cards may be subject to tax.

What do you mean by a "dinger"?
Dinger = Item is new but the packaging is damaged in some way or form.

These are speculative guesses at best going by descritption of any given item and also taking into account the length of time an item has been out since its release. Shorter the span of time from release of a game or console, better the chance of scoring a new item with damaged packaging aka "dinger".

What condition are products from Warehouse Deals generally in?
First and foremost all games from AWD are considered used unless specified as new. Usually, games are re-shrinked wrap and depending on condition they can be perfect / brand new, brand new with damaged packaging aka "dinger" to just a game in a generic case. AWD has 5 condition criteria for their listings and they are:

New: Just like it sounds. A brand-new, unused, unopened video game in perfect condition in its original packaging and with all original packaging materials included.

Like New: An apparently unopened video game in perfect condition (although it may be out of its original wrapping). The box and item are pristine, with no signs of wear. Suitable for presenting as a gift. Activation codes for bonus online content may be missing or expired. Product may not include downloadable content.

Very Good: A well-cared-for video game that has been played but remains in great condition. The game and its original packaging are complete and slightly worn, but unmarked and undamaged. Activation codes for bonus online content may be missing or expired. Product may not include downloadable content.

Good: The video game shows wear from consistent use, but remains in good condition. There may be clear external signs of wear and damage to the original packaging or instructions, but the game plays perfectly. The video game may have identification markings from its owner. Activation codes for bonus online content may be missing or expired. Product may not include downloadable content.

Acceptable: The video game is fairly worn, but it continues to work perfectly. The box and instructions may be missing or damaged. The video game may have identification markings from its owner. Sellers are required to note whether the box or instructions are missing in the condition notes field for the item. Activation codes for bonus online content may be missing or expired. Product may not include downloadable content.

Any game I have personally ever bought in good or above condition has been in near mint condition. Acceptable ones have been a gamble. Getting DLC with games has also been a gamble and since AWD games are considered used, don't expect unused DLC even though there will be occassions where they may come unused. In regards to DLC, ymmv. Conditon wise, some people have reported that games were scratched with stickers on the insert. Consoles are also usually reported in like new or new condition with box damage. Rarely, a console may be missing a key component such as a power brick. Games listed in "acceptable" condition likely have very beaten up cases, or are missing cases and inserts, and are in not so great condition, but generally have a working game disc. Consoles listed in "acceptable" conditon can be either new in damaged packaging and or a pure gamble in what conditon they will truly be in along with what is included in the box depending on the time frame from release of the console.

Here is an example of a like new handheld (PS Vita) - Thanks Slixshot

Already have the original He-Man series, picked up the 2002 series used for 4.85, from a 3rd party, fulfilled by Amazon.

 
I just got MLB 14 to test with my LN PS4 and I'm a little worried, but not super worried yet lol.

-Took about a minute to install it enough to start up the game. Not under a minute but definitely not more than 2.

-Took about 45 seconds to get past the first load with the baseball diamond.

-Menu was a little laggy (but this is an MLB staple since the PS2 lol)

-Player pictures aren't showing up although the "created" players (from the roster update) show.

-Was installing in the background and reached around 35% in 15 minutes. (I left it running while I went to work just now because I was in the middle of a draft)

Is this normal behavior? I know from watching my friend play Killzone on launch day the speed of installing/loading games this generation is not a step forward at all.

 
Anyone ever get a random package from amazon that isn't theirs? I got an order that I clearly did place, it's a Htc phone mount, and it's not even under my placed orders... really weird.

Yeah sometimes certain things won't load even during MLB the Show such as player pictures on the scoreboard and there is some occasional lag. I would let the game fully install and then judge it. Also there are some jerky camera movements when the foul balls are hit towards the dugouts. At first I thought it was only at the O.Co stadium (because I am using the A's and I didn't see it happen somewhere else) but then I saw it happened at Target field too and it is just how the game is.

Well I was worried about the PS4's disc drive not the game. So as long as that is normal behavior I'm cool. I like the MLB Show series but usually in my experience they aren't as refined as people make them out to be. Never though I'd say it, but I'm sad EA Sports got kicked out of baseball. MVP was easily becoming the best baseball game.

Mine is my full name. Weird thing is, the package was ripped open and re taped. I'm not expecting anything else from them or else I'd be worried about that.

Maybe the post office checked it?

Don't they open stuff it they suspect something weird? I know they opened an order of nail polish I got once

MVP 2004 with Duane Kuiper and Mike Krukow was amazing. EA deserves losing the MLB rights, because they bought the NFL rights. All that did was hurt gamers and is just another one of the million reasons I can't stand that company.

Ooooooh

It's ONTRAC?

Ya, they're shady as fuck.

I complained in here awhile ago about my problem with them.

Long story short, they tried to say Amazon never gave them my package, Amazon opened investigation, a couple days later miraculously they go Amazon did give us the package we'll deliver it, Package came delivered and OPENED, not just the packing, but the actual fricken plastic on my game too. I also have had an issue with them with another brand, where they said they delivered my package, and I was home ALL DAY (I was waiting to go into labor so couldn't go anywhere) and I never saw the ontrac guy, company investigated it, Ontrac says it was lost then in the truck, then a week later package shows up miraculously while Ontrac still till this day claims it is lost. I hate Ontrac :headache:

I got a children's book delivered to me randomly. When I contacted customer service, they said it was the same order as my infamous SS game (which I already received). Contacted customer service and they gave me a label to send it back. I made sure to double check with customer service that it wouldn't go against my return numbers, but who knows.

That's the only thing I'm afraid of. I might just toss it, it's a $6 mount from some third party seller via prime that probably paid fifty cents for it, or less.

Last two packages I ordered from Amz were obviously tampered with, and wouldn't you know it, f**king Ontrac was the carrier. Luckily nothing was stolen or broken, but it was pretty obvious someone keyed the packing tape to check inside. Reported it both times, but nothing came of it.

fuck Ontrac.

 
Don't understand amazon gold box! I get nothing but junk in there for months and like 95% CD offers when I don't even listen to music, and I randomly get 4 games in my gold box in the last two days that I REALLY want, even though I haven't browsed video games on amazon in a week or two probably.

 
How often do you guys see Battlefield 4 for PS4 pop up on here and what price is it usually at? I've been scanning for a few days and haven't seen anything yet.

Hey, that happened to me too, but mine always look more like someone cut it with a box cutter. We must have the same delivery driver! I reported it the times that it happened, but Ontrac just brushed it off and Amazon always just says the same auto replies

Probably why it suddenly happened. Nothing's on accident with Amazon. I don't even get those any more at all though.

$22.36 or somewhere extremely close, cent-wise seems like a pretty good deal for SMT IV - like new.

If I recall, someone was looking for Final Fantasy 12 some time ago.

9.52 in good condition.
