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

Little off topic (which is not abnormal for this thread)

I was curious if my PS4 is loud or not.

Here is a video I took this morning

There is nothing on in the room except for the PS4 and monitor.

It has TLOU disc in while sitting at the dashboard

I was playing my PS3 the other day and then turned on my PS4. My PS4 is definitely pretty loud when I first start it up. After it's running, it quiets down a lot though. It's still noticeably louder than my PS3 while idling. My cousin has a PS3 & PS4 as well and I asked him if he noticed his was pretty loud. He told me he can notice the difference, and his is loud when starting up also. So, maybe it isn't anything to worry about.

that sounds about right to me.

 
Yea well people say it's not "loud"

But when I walk into my room and nothing else is on I can hear it and my door is 13 feet from my ps4 

 
I barely hear anything in that video, what am i suppose to hear?

Honestly, the PS4 I have never really is loud other than normal noises like fans being on and the disc driving spinning but i cant really hear that unless im like right next to it.

Yea I sit like a foot away from mine.

If I start it up with a disc in and then play that game, there will be minimal to no sound. If I start the console then put the disc in, it runs loud constantly.

weird. i seriously just started up the PS4 with watch dogs in and changed disc to wolfenstien and dont hear any noise at all.

 
My PS4 has been running loudly lately and I chalked in up to something going on in the new update. I also know my brother who has had his PS4 since launch just recently mentioned it as well.

I got one once. It was something along the lines of demanding me to delete some posts I made and apologize or he would get his lawyer dad to sue me. :lol:

I'll try it again when I get home. Maybe it was downloading something or another...which I doubt. I hate returning things and I really don't want to try again at Bb. Since with my luck I'll get a trully defective one.

i doubt the ps4 makes more noise than a ps3. the loud chucking noise from certain demanding games can be loud as hell sometimes.

 
any of you know if switching the HDD to a SSHD will make the PS4 less noisey? i know it will make it somewhat faster, but will it be less noisey as well? not like it's very loud or anything, but will it make a difference?

since I gameshare and i'm already down to 300GB and I've only had it for about 2 months I need at least 1TB

It will run quieter but I am not sure if you will notice the difference. Also SSD run cooler than HDD so it should produce less heat and require less of the fan to be run so it should be quieter in that regard.

 
I picked up South Park: Stick of Truth (Grand Wizard Edition) for PS3 for $39 in like new condition from AWD. I haven't seen anything even close to that (for PS3). The PS3 version seems rarer than the 360 version for some reason.

Seemed like a good idea at the time but what do you guys think?

Somewhat OT, but has anyone purchased an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription of any type from Amazon with Amazon credit?

The Photo version went live today, and I'm going to buy it with Amazon credit if possible. Just wondering if anyone has experience with the auto renew thing?

It says it's going to charge your CC. looks like one of the things you can't use Amazon credit on.

A few days back I bought and threw back a dinger that was $35, there was an A that might have been also a dinger for $32. Since my backlog is huge I simple couldn't buy it just for cartman seeing as they made an exactly same one just half it's size and it's selling for $5 on eBay if I decide to grab it, the one in the CE is 6".
