F.A.Q's

What is Amazon Warehouse Deals?
Warehouse Deals is part of amazon that has open box, generally like new items.

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.

What condition are products from Warehouse Deals generally in?
Usually, games are re-shrinked wrap and almost in perfect condition. Any game i have personally ever bought has in like new condition. However, 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.

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

I'm waiting for the 360 slim, or ps3 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... 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.

I actually have some questions before I buy a DS.

1. What's the difference between a DS, DS Lite, A DSI and a DSI XL?

2. Which one would you guys buy?

3. If I liked the original Pokemon games would you recommend going with Soulsilver to get the new shinies at Gamestop?

Thank you very much for any help.
 
1.Ds has a GBA slot, DS Lite is smaller than the DS basically, DSI has a larger screen(i think) and no GBA slot, DSIXL has a big ass screen and well worth the cash, 2.. Id say wait for the 3DS. Its only about 3-4 months away. 3. Yes, but borrow a DS and play it until you can get the shinies. You will regret buying a DSI right now once the 3DS comes out.

To toss in my two cents, I recommend the DSi XL without hesitation. I've owned all four DS iterations and the XL is easily my favorite--brilliant, engaging screens and access to numerous great downloadable games. Worth the loss of the GBA port, IMO. I was hesitant about getting one, but realized my worries were foolish within an hour of playing with it... easily my favorite handheld system ever.

Edit: I anticipate continuing to play DS games on my XL long after the release of the 3DS, just because it's screens are so much bigger than the 3DS screens.
 
[quote name='Kaiser499']I assume you can access all those great downloadable games with the DS Lite right?[/QUOTE]

Nope, just the DSi and DSi XL.
 
Of course Nintendo screws over their customers by not letting you transfer downloaded games to new systems. So if I were to "upgrade" from a regular DSi to an XL I'd have to repurchase any games I want. I did just find an article that says 3DS will allow transfers from DSi's and to other 3DS's so hopefully that will happen at least.

[quote name='Kaiser499']Wish I had the money, I'd buy it. Been wanting a DS for awhile now.[/QUOTE]

as soon as i had talked myself into buying it, it was gone. I really wanted the Red DSi XL too, esp since i dont own mario kart on DS and i even bought the red wii. O well, Ill wait for another i guess.
 
[quote name='Kaiser499']Sadikyo, how do you find these so quickly? When I do a search they don't come up?[/QUOTE]

He's magical... And I wonder this too, because I can never find anything good!
 
It's magic, mixed with a little bit of luck, hard work, and creativity :)

One of these days I think I'm gonna compile a list of everything I bought in 2010 from Warehouse Deals and how much I paid - it would be absolutely ridiculous...I'm kind of scared to do it.
 
I think I'm gonna do that --- I'm pretty sure I've spent thousands in 2010. Hooked up pretty much my entire family and friends with whatever systems they wanted. Thank you warehouse deals :) I have a feeling though I would piss some people off if I post everything I've bought, hehe :)

it goes on a case by case on transfers... I just got into the downloads and called up nintendo saying

so if i spend 300 bucks on downloads in 2 years and my dsi breaks im out the cash

they said when you call its based on a case by case to see if they would allow you to download tehm into the new system.

If this entire DSI to 3DS is true (what i dont think it is) nintendo will be forced to allow everyone (even without 3DS to transfer games cause im sure a lawsuit will come out of it if they didnt

personally even with the downloads being what 2 years old.... I cant even find more then a handful or so of good games even to download to play..

of the game i found worth the cash

crystal monsters--pokemon clone ripoff major lag (500 pts )
zenonia ---sword of mana ripoff (people say its 40+ hours long ) 800 pts
alphabounce--- breakout like game 500 pts very long
number battle---- best game i ever downoaded 500pts sadly its only 7 hours long to get all medals
telegraph sudoku 200 pts

really nothing else i can see downloading (downloaded another 4 but dont even play them , elemental masters, some tic tac toe game. some board game and six spin (stay the hell away from six spin awful game for 500 pts)
 
[quote name='Kaiser499']:360: Grand Theft Auto IV: Complete Edition - $19.99[/QUOTE]

Thank you, though I foolishly bought before I realized that it was in "acceptable" condition, and am now having a hard time finding any info that would tell me what was wrong with it.

Anyone know? With Prime, they were preparing she shipment within a few minutes, so it can't be cancelled.
 
[quote name='Grinchy']Bought already, sorry guys!

I had my update scanner on this one and just couldn't pass up on this price. Now I'm just still hoping that I can use all the DLC that's on the disc.[/QUOTE]

Scanner?
 
[quote name='sadikyo']Nintendo Dsi XL Midnight Blue - $117.99 and $126.99

Red Wii Bundle - $147.99[/QUOTE]

I stumbled across these as well this morning while searching Amazon deals. I tried to get the red one but it was gone before I could finalize the purchase. I then tried for the 117.99 blue but the same thing happened. I did manage to scored the 126.99 blue. All of that happened within about 60 seconds. These really do go fast! I really wanted a bronze, but for the savings over retail, I'll settle for blue!

This is my first purchase through amazon warehouse. What condition can I expect? If the condition is worse that I'm expecting, what is their return policy? Better yet, if there is a FAQ around here on "amazon warehouse deals" that answers all of this, please point me in the correct direction.


thanks,

VVarwick

My DSi XL was listed as very good and came brand new, one of the box flaps was a little torn and that was it. I've never returned a AWD order so I dont know about that.

Return Policy is the same as Amazon.com and your condition can be anything from brand new to a used return so just hope for the best. Worst case you would lose return shipping but if you have a good rep with them and explain your dissatisfaction, you should get a full refund if you are unhappy

All you have to do is say the item didn't come in that great condition and you get free shipping back to them.
 
Thanks for the input guys! It is making me feel a lot better about my impulse buy.

Since there was a $117 one and a $126 one, I wonder if price has any reflection on condition of the product? I'm guessing it's all just up to chance, or up to whatever mood the AWD employee was in when he priced it.:lol:

DarkRider23, thanks for the tip on how to get free shipping back if I'm not satisfied.

I'm guessing both the 117 and 126 one were both new, just the packaging might be a little mroe messed up on one of them. x:
 
If you really want the Red Dsi XL Bundle then go here:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...?ie=UTF8&qid=1294165495&sr=8-1&condition=used

And download an addon or tool to your internet browser to pop up notifications of when the page changes. When a new product is listed, you should get a notification on-screen and you can buy it immediately.

There are tons of addons that will do this function in various manners, so just choose one you like and if you're fast you'll be able to get it.

Good luck. You might need it -- because 5 more could pop-up today, or one might not pop up until a week from now. You just never know.

Wouldn't this page be better? http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...E7U53NWQ&qid=1293881315&sr=1-3&condition=used

And I did download that add on where it refreshes when something new is posted. :D Thanks to whoever provided it.
 
No, that page would not be better usually. Generally speaking, the deal pops up on the main product page used listings, before the warehouse deals listing. This little hint will help you out tremendously if you are trying to get something specific :)
