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.

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 a 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... 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 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. Games listed in "acceptable" condition likely have very beaten up cases, or are missing cases, and are in not so great condition, but generally have a working game disc.


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

You need a decent graphics card. This does not have it.

If you want something cheap, I suggest an A6 or A8 laptop which can be had from ~$350-$450. If you can find an i5 with a nice dedicated GPU for cheap though you might want to jump on that instead.

What's with all this bullying? I was under the impression that there were at least a few mature adults on here. If you don't like what he has to post just skim over it and ignore it. I thought people got over the "no life" thing after middle school :roll:

It looks like he brags a lot (which I don't personally care about) and has been caught lying, so he gets a lot of shit for it.

It's the lying part that bugs me. Cause he says he got a certain item at $x. And then people think maybe it'll be available for that in the future. But that $x item is a lie. (or a snipe hunt depending on where you're from.)

The AMD Trinity laptops are releasing soon, and are going to start around $500 (?). May just want to wait for those.
 
[quote name='mrsilkunderwear']You need a decent graphics card. This does not have it.[/QUOTE]

I figure as much. Any idea what I could get to replace it? I don't mind laying down money on a graphics card as long as this laptop could support it decently enough. GW2 would be the only game I play so as long as I met the minimum requirements (or a little over) I'd be just fine with that.

shocked people are still buying these

That's fine and dandy if you want just wifi. The 3G bundle comes with an 8gb card, not a 4, and those things are ridiculously overpriced.

that is IF your system has a memory card with it..i think only the first set of the 3g had the memory cards

the newer 3g i see in store says Memory card not included
 
The $200 3G/Wifi is still a better deal then the $250 for MK and the 4GB card.

Get the $200 one, wait for a 32GB in warehouse for $60-65. So for $265 you get a wifi/3G Vita and 32GB card. In your suggestion it's $220 for a wifi Vita and a 4GB card. I much rather spend another $40 and have 3G as an option, however crappy it may be, and another 28GB of storage.

Granted a $180 or so wifi Vita is the best option though.

Ahhh yes, the whole "I got a vita for 50 dollars" schtick. I guarantee he never got it, he dropped it after getting called out a lot. I wish he would just stop in all honesty.

Someone needs to trade for mine that I have up lol. It has an 8 gig card with it and every thing from the package, but no one is really biting.

Upgrading the discrete GPU in a laptop isn't necessarily impossible, but trying to put one into something that didn't have a DGPU in the first place tends to be a losing proposition for various reasons. Fortunately all indications are pointing to GW2 being playable with modest configurations so... at the common laptop resolution of 1366 x 768 I'd bet money that (driver optimization aside) it would run on a laptop with a (dual core, higher base clocked CPU, but the least powerful GPU in the A-series) AMD A4, most of which can be found for well under $500.

As long as you're not antsy to get in on the betas and stress tests that NCsoft has been running this month I'd suggest waiting until laptops with the AMD A10 (which I think is still going to be a quad core, if they go hex core just get an A8 since no way will any game take advantage of that) are shipping for a much more positive experience (like hooking the laptop up to a monitor or TV and running in 1080p).

If you don't want to gamble on whether OEMs will ship laptops with the new APUs before GW2 actually launches, or money really isn't an issue, just about anything currently in Alienware (price premium) or Asus' ROG (debatable setups and build quality but one of the few ways to get nVidia's latest GPUs which could probably max settings for GW2 to three monitors) lineups should be able to handle the game no problem.

If you're more of a DIYer a lot of independent boutique vendors just ship laptops that rely on CLEVO's barebone laptop chasis (especially the ones that can accommodate both desktop and mobile components thus allowing intrepid enthusiasts to troll ebay and trading forums for build components) anyway so you could kill time until the game launches putting a system into one of those.

... Sorry I can't write anything that contains less text than all the other posts on the page combined.
 
I had bought a Like New Vita for $187 over a month ago and it seemed brand new. The box was a little beat up. It had a problem where if I put in a game cartridge, the Vita would shut off. It also wouldn't turn on with a cartridge in the Vita so I couldn't play any games.

Eventually the problem fixed itself but it started doing it again. I spoke to Amazon CS and they offered me a full refund but they said I couldn't exchange it for another used Vita as they were no longer in stock. The rep gave me a $25 certificate to use on a brand new Vita so I ordered one. $225 for a brand new Vita with Mortal Kombat and a 4G memory card still seems like a good deal to me.

That's an awesome deal. All of those horror stories about their used Vitas make me want to wait until there's a price drop or something. That's a lot of money to gamble on something like that.

Hmm tempted by the DS lite with the new price drops... However, I have also been waiting for the 3DS redesign and was considering picking one up when they release. Still worth jumping on this? Is that redundant? Could it be over a while until we see that?
