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

I'm still pissed at USPS. Just a little bit less now, I start getting my packages on Sunday. Didn't even know about that. My Conception just shipped, and it should be here Sunday.

The only thing I'm hoping for this E3 is that they don't boast any Next-Gen tech that has never before seen in any games. (Call of Duty: Ghosts Fish AI) or Sunset Overdrive where they're labeling it as "Next-Gen Respawning" where the only difference is coming up in a Sarcophagus from the ground, or dropping down from a UFO's tractor beam. Even then Borderlands and Bioshock had respawn systems like that but just not as similar. Here's hoping they actually do something that's actually next-gen and original which is doubtful. :wall:

Yup same over used ideas with small twists..

 
Well I see the thread managed to be OT without me. That xbox video is fake, bad acting by the chick.

slow's guide to women tip #47:

I am quite familiar with my ex gfs screaming at me, so I have a lot of experience in this area. No woman actually tells you they won't give you sex, they let you suffer by wondering how long it will be. If you are hitting it right in the first place, they will cave before you do...or sleep with your friends, thats possible too. The more you know.

 
Just received my $276 VG PS4 in the mail. Cosmetics look perfect, wires/cords are still in original packaging, PS4 controller still has plastic stickering on it. Popped in a Blu-Ray movie to see if it worked, and it plays great. Any other things I should check for? I keep hearing things about BLOD circulating the PS4s on Amazon Warehouse, so I'm a bit concerned. Thanks in advance!

Play a game and make sure it doesn't take extra long to install. May want to play the game for a couple hours too.

 
Just a quick update on my warranty service request.  It appears that they'll only charge you if they find that the problem was outside of the warranty T&C's.  Here is the verbiage that pertains to any costs involved:

=======================

*Final determination on Warranty Status is determined by the Service Center. Systems that do not meet the Manufacturer's Limited Warranty Terms and Conditions will be considered "Out of Warranty" and there will be a charge for service or your system will be returned to you without service.

This service process is for consumers only. Retailers and third party providers are not eligible.

The Service Center reserves the right to repair, exchange with a factory certified system, or return your system to you according to their diagnosis. If the unit cannot be serviced, a $25.00 assessment fee will be charged, plus shipping and applicable taxes.

Your system will be returned to you at the address you provided. We are unable to change this address once the unit has been processed for service.

Your system will be RETURNED WITHOUT SERVICE due to any of the following:
 

  • Excessive wear and tear, neglect, abuse, accident and/or modification.
  • Serial Number Label has been tampered with, cut, torn or removed.
  • Model received does not match the model you requested service on.
  • Invalid Service Request Case #: This service offer is good for thirty (30) days from the date of your request.
=================================

We'll see how it goes.  I suppose worst case is that I send it back to Amazon (return by 6/13 date) if it goes south.  Hope this helps someone.

Got a $276 PS4 yesterday and it came repackaged in a generic cardboard box.

Controller still had plastic over the d-pad and buttons but plastic pieces had broken off between the R1 and R2 triggers and the touchpad was all smashed up and pushed out of place. Too bad, have to send it back.
