F.A.Q's

What is Amazon Warehouse Deals?

Spoiler

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.

What is AmazonSmile?

Is the Amazon Warehouse Deals return policy the same as Amazon's return policy?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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 is this "glitch deals" that I keep hearing about in this thread?

Spoiler

On August 7th, 2014, AWD glitched out similar to how it did around penny deals, except lot of stuff went for cheap instead for a penny. The pricing algorithm went haywire and in the process lot of stuff went for cheap across the AWD spectrum from games to iphones to tablets and everything else in between. The "glitch deal" lasted for maybe a couple of hours and fellow CAGs that were around during that time made out like a bandit. Below is the timeline leading up to the night and the deals that went down on that night.

What do you mean by a "dinger"?

Spoiler

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".

AWD product description says "Factory Sealed", is this item new?

Spoiler

First and foremost, AWD sells used / open box items so in their terms it has been sealed / resealed at an Amazon Warehouse and hence the "Factory Sealed" part so no it isn't necessarily new. It isn't necessarily new because it could go one of two ways:

1. It was traded in / open box return / test unit that was resealed at an Amazon warehouse facility.
2. It was a dinger (new with damaged packaging and with seals intact).

What condition are products from Warehouse Deals generally in?

Spoiler

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.

Any tips on finding deals?

Spoiler

Sure! Here is a guide for a plugin for Chrome users to set alerts for items. Part 2 of the tutorial helps get AWD link to item not currently instock or that hasn't come out yet.

For Chrome users PageMonitor is a handy plugin to catch deals. (Guide listed below)
For Mozilla users, Check4Change is a handy alternate plugin to that of chrome's.

Also, http://theforklift.net/ for those looking for AWD deals in a pinch.

From my original post (concerning PageMonitor and AWD links):

I wonder if I'm doing it right. I'm adding the used page of the product (and selecting free shipping to filter it), however the program alerts me there is a change eventough there is none (the Sorry message we see when there are no products with free shipping - usually AmazonWarehouse).

The way I do it is selecting the price itself. For example I go here: http://www.amazon.co...&qid=1427814309 then I select the game/console that I want too look and click where it say used (dont click on the item link, click where it say used under the item you want). Then with page monitor I select monitor this page. After that I go to options (on the page monitor tab) advance and then click custom mode, pick. That will open a new tab withe the webpage of the item that I selected to monitor and there is where I select the price (the number) of the item. Then click done. Thats it, thats how it worked for me.

Time to revisit Feb 25th 2014 (and March 30th 2012) :




Time to revisit March 30th 2012 . I posted a guide then and it very much still applies with some tweaking to what I know now, so on with it.

Before I begin, know this that you need to go to the AWD site if you are after something specific from AWD like the vita in this example. Also you can fast click the link to the edition you want (if it is a console, handheld, or games), and see each price for AWD only items if they are available. You would be lucky to see something pop up on AWD if bunch of people are hunting down the same hot ticket item at any given time. On that note, the alert DOEScatch AWD items before they appear on AWD and if sniped quickly (1-click), others will most likely just see a ghost listing on AWD by the time it appears on AWD page. Setting alert on AWD page also eliminates false positive alerts since only AWD listings will appear on AWD page vs every minute change that will happen on the main Amazon listing page. Now onto the guide:


This may help answer the question for few who are wondering how to use "Page Monitor" extension for Chrome.

Once the extension is installed, do this. Select the AWD page (not the main Amazon listing page to avoid false positive alerts) to be monitored by clicking on the Page Monitor icon and selecting "Monitor This Page" link (Use the link swapping trick mentioned earlier to get to the page if the game isn't out yet). Then go to Page Monitor options and do as following:

(You can choose to have custom notification sound, desktop notification, length of duration for notification, and the length of duration for refreshing as you please.)

Once done tweaking the settings, then do this:

Once you have done step 6, you have set the page to be monitored and you are set. A notification will go off that a change has been found but that is just to notify that you have set an alert. Mark it off as visited and from this point forward you are set to go.

Pro Tip: Set it to monitor the "used" tab via "selector" under the options by checking off "custom mode" instead of monitoring the whole page. If you set if from the warehouse side then it will only alert you if one pops up in the warehouse.

Those step diagrams have been here since the 1st time I made the guide back in March of 2012 and it is under my profile in my gallery so feel free to revisit it if the need arises.

I hope that helps my fellow CAGs. Happy hunting everyone





Mulder, on 04 May 2015 - 3:24 PM, said:

One thing for the procedure is that there are no New 3DSs available in the warehouse at this time, so I need to wait to test this approach.

Part 2 of the equation on how to get notification for items not on AWD and or ones say coming out in the future (like MGS V: CE)

Do this to get AWD listings for those items. Open a link to an AWD item (any item) but it needs to be an AWD link. Say something like this:

http://smile.amazon..../offer-listing/B00841ZJYO/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used&m=A2L77EE7U53NWQ&qid=1430778305&sr=1-15

The part in bold is the Amazon's item listing and each item has its own unique listing identifier so to get the new XL item listing go to the item's page and from it's link get B00S1LRX3W

http://www.amazon.co...DS-XL-Black/dp/B00S1LRX3W/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1430778512&sr=1-1&keywords=new+3ds+xl

and replace the B00841ZJYO with B00S1LRX3W in the AWD link and voila you have AWD listing for an item not yet availabe.

http://smile.amazon..../offer-listing/B00S1LRX3W/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used&m=A2L77EE7U53NWQ&qid=1430778305&sr=1-15

Here are all the new xl links:

Nintendo - New 3DS XL Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Limited Edition - Gold/Black
New Nintendo 3DS XL - Black
Nintendo New 3DS XL Red

I hope that helps. Good luck and happy hunting!

I'm curious what a good price for the vita is pn awd? Looking to grab one but not sure what price point to hold out for?

 

[SpidrMnky]

^ Remember that bundle?! Another one popped up for the same price and listed in the same condition before I was going out of town for the weekend and I snagged it. It was waiting for me when I got home so I just unboxed it and here it is.

Opened the box!

So far so good!

Aw crap! It is a trade in! (This is how NorAm, after grading the trade-in, hands over items to Amazon / AWD):

Relief! Everything is there:

I truly wasn't expecting it to come complete after seeing the trade in sticker for an acceptable one. The wiiu has minor scuffing on the top but otherwise everything is there including batteries in the wiimote (which lit up when I moved it and hit a button by accident). I will test the unit a little later but overall very happy with this one!

Nice, especially with the Mario remote, wheel, and everything included.

 

[DealSeeker2U]

I'm disappointed I missed that vita deal. With kids at home, I'm finding that it is much easier to play games on a portable. Especially RPGs. I can't sit for a couple hours anymore. At least with the portable I can squeeze in a little time on lunch or right before bed. That's how I powered my way through bravely default. The vita has a great reputation and games but poor support from Sony, I can't wait to,find one at the right price.

I got my walking dead vita and it came with everything like a brand new one would. The DLC card was opened but stil present. It was labeled as acceptable but it was def like new in my opinion. The charger and everything came in the little bags and everything. My sister was asking me if I could find one for her sons bday but now I want one for myself! Lol. Back on the hunt! Thanks again for all your hard work and posts!

[shadowysea07]

I'm curious what a good price for the vita is pn awd? Looking to grab one but not sure what price point to hold out for?

80$ or less. Anymore is too much unless its a dinger, a color you want, or bundled with a 16/32gb card or larger. If you can't find one on awd cowboom and ebay have them pop up frequently.

 

[shadowysea07]

Thanks. I grabbed Phoenix Wright. I've never played an Ace Attorney game but I've heard good things.

It varies case by case basis. Some are great others are filler. There is alot of games for the series some are available digitally. If you like it use price tracker to pick up the others since they always seem to bounce around in price 7 to 20$

What's a dinger exactly? Sorry I'm the new guy.

 

[joeyshadows]

I've already owned a vita twice, but you guys are making me want to get another one. Goddammit.

 

[PokeChaos480]

Vita is life.

 

[RienBoyle72]

Thanks for the replies I will keep a look out for a vita deal then

 

[Darthlain18]

^ Remember that bundle?! Another one popped up for the same price and listed in the same condition before I was going out of town for the weekend and I snagged it. It was waiting for me when I got home so I just unboxed it and here it is.

Opened the box!

So far so good!

Aw crap! It is a trade in! (This is how NorAm, after grading the trade-in, hands over items to Amazon / AWD):

Relief! Everything is there:

I truly wasn't expecting it to come complete after seeing the trade in sticker for an acceptable one. The wiiu has minor scuffing on the top but otherwise everything is there including batteries in the wiimote (which lit up when I moved it and hit a button by accident). I will test the unit a little later but overall very happy with this one!

Damn that is a great catch man! Wish they had made the system red in that bundle personally. You deserve it and thanks for the well wishes! I shall be in and out when I can!

An item with packaging that is easily damaged. So instead of selling it as a new item directly from Amazon, they list it as used on AWD.

Thanks. I grabbed Phoenix Wright. I've never played an Ace Attorney game but I've heard good things.

All the Ace Attorney games are excellent, but nothing beats cases 1-4 and 1-5 in the first game and case 3-5 in Trials and Tribulations. Capcom did an excellent job localizing them with lots of great humor, memorable character personalities, and a phenomenal overarching storyline. Some of my personal favorite games for sure.

Anyone had any luck getting a GPU on Amazon? Thinkin about building my rig now instead of Christmas. Haven't decided yet. I see a lot of 970s on AWD, didn't know if t was one of those things fine to buy used or if the new one was what I needed to spring for

They are great games but I'm shocked you didn't mention case 2-4( I think that's the last one).

Absolutely the best case in the series, and salvages the rest of the game.

I can't remember exactly but I thought someone mentioned before that they had bought a graphics card or two off AWD and they had to return them because they didn't work. It was much earlier in the year though so I couldn't begin to think of how far back it would be post wise.

I bought my Radeon R9 270 on there about 6-8 months ago. Good discount, came complete, still working perfectly. Only thing I would have done differently is get something better than a 270...

Case 2-4 was great, but I felt that the rest of the cases in Justice For All were much weaker than the rest of the series bar Investigations 1. Trials and Tribulations managed to return to the highs of the first game with five phenomenal cases.

On topic:

Toad Amiibo (USA Packaging (G) $9.77

How can you tell something from AWD is a dinger. I have bought several LN items and none are ever dingers. Is it in the description somewhere?

 

[mlow44]

Hints in the description. One indicator that it's a dinger is if it says damaged packaging or missing shrinkwrap, and any "damage to top, front, or sides of item" can refer to damaged packaging unless the description specifically states damage to the device itself.

If it says something about save data or markings from previous owner, it is definitely not a dinger. If it says it's repackaged or factory sealed, it's probably not a dinger.

Usually they come factory sealed, but sometimes I get returned items that have been opened but are still in great condition and are clearly unused.

And it's usually the case that "minor scratches (<1/4")" refers to the actual item, right? I've always wondered if that's the item or the box, or if it's consistent at all.

 

[tinypoem]

Thanks for the replies. I guess that explains why so many of the LN items I get are truly used as most I see mention saved date or markings.

That's a negative.

 

[keyblader1985]

I would be all over my 3DS right now, but SOMEONE used it right up until it died.

And the charger cord just suddenly stopped working.

And it's 11 at night, so I can't go get a new one.


I been waiting for this for so long...

Can I get a link to the info on this please? Either Google isn't being very helpful or I'm simply incompetent when it comes to typing in the right search keywords.

There's a new 3ds-homebrew website at smealum.github.io/3ds

Showed for sale earlier but I guess a few of the billions of people on this planet got in on it.

Not necessarily. If it's prefaced by "Item is in original packaging, but packaging has damage," or something similar, any cosmetic imperfections or scratches listed afterwards can refer to the packaging and the item inside might be brand new. Obviously there are no guarantees but if it's listed as Very Good or Like New there's a very good chance it's a dinger, as VG and LN items are supposed to have minimal to no cosmetic damage. If it's listed as Good or Acceptable it's a bigger gamble but it could potentially still be a dinger.

Check the posts after yours, now I need to buy some 3ds games from other regions like the Ace Attorney Collection on 3ds I heard its dual languages here is the theme I am using right now lol it has the custom music from the trailer

[HyperG]

There's a new 3ds-homebrew website at smealum.github.io/3ds

I got the homebrew channel running with the youtube app easily. People should download that if they haven't already. Homebrew channel keeps freezing on me though, haven't updated it since the cubic ninja hack came out, so not sure if that is why. edit after rebooting for the 3rd time, it is giving me an error saying I don't have any homebrew applications installed when I had everything from the initial package on the sd card.

Is homebrew really circumventing copy protection?  I mean, the "hacks" don't let you run ROMs on the 3ds.  The only circumventing is region locking for games you own.

Since when is homebrew piracy?? This does not enable piracy or useage of roms all you get is a region lock. Go research it up
