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

Thank you so much Dealseeker for putting that WORK in on this thread. You fellahs keep me coming back.

ah, missed it. Saw it, tried to one click it and it was gone. Thanks though.
Don't worry, PS4s on the AWD are like buses. If you miss one, wait for the next one. Trust me i'm not even crazy on this site and I just got lucky one day and picked one up. The problem isn't getting one, the problem is getting one that works.

 
This may be really old news but I had not tried buying Amazon Kindle cards at Meijer for awhile.  Turns out they most likely fixed their coupon glitch.  They were running a $10 of $49.99 general merchandise coupon this weekend but when I bought a $50 card it did not apply.  Anyway FYI and if this is common knowledge now sorry for the post.

Yeah, I know. On average, I've been able to grab one every couple weeks or so. As you noted, I've been fairly unfortunate and am 2 working of 5 tries.

yea they fixed it. It something new cause the last promo not long ago did work. But the way people were buying $1000 or $1500 worth in 10 or 15 separate orders at once it was only a matter of time.
 
Can't wait when the Xbox One hits this price on AWD.
I'm with you brother. I remember the hub bub at the annoucement of the X1 thinking, "Oh man I'll never get that! PS4 for life" knowing damn well I'm gonna get it eventually. Specially since Sunset is looking pretty awesome.

 
hey how long does it take awd deals to lower when the new item price is dropped? cause amazon barely lowered the new price of the gold headsets to $84.99 so is it possible to maybe find dingers you think for $50? or is that to much to hope for lol
There is no exact time for when the used price adjusts. Depends on the cycle. At the same time, no telling if the price now isn't already adjusted given they were going for $89 to $90 used before to $72 as of now. If the $72 prices adjust down then it is very possible to hit $50 mark.

And there's plenty of games selling for less than a dollar under new right now.

 
Any opinions on Ryse people? I've read the reviews.....but is it decent enough to get now, play, then trade in? Or just wait til it is under $5 at Gamestop once the One's library starts filling up?

It seems solid but I just can't bring myself to buy it until it's under $10.

Story and graphics are great. Gameplay gets repetitive. Just "rent" it from Gamestop. You can beat it fairly quickly. Unless you can wait a couple years for it to actually drop to that price.
 
I bought Ryse day one with some other games.  It's a pretty game, with an average story. but super repetitive gameplay.  button mashing combos are the entire game, you don't unlock new moves like the god of war style games or anything like that.  Definitely rent it, don't buy.  I'd wait if i were you though, i wouldn't be surprised to see it show up as a free games with gold title eventually

It's probably the best looking game out on next gen systems. Repetitive, but worth 20, especially with a quick trade.

 
I have a game from AWD that's supposed to arrive Tuesday (it was a "guaranteed delivery date" via Prime), but it hasn't updated from "Not Yet Shipped". I'm concerned because another game I ordered the same day from AWD has already shipped for delivery on Tuesday. Is there a chance they'll cancel the unshipped game?

maybe the first order is coming from a closer warehouse? So they figure if they ship it Monday the warehouse might still be close enough to receive it Tuesday
 
Just got my Conception 2 for the Vita and it is going right back. Didn't even have the box, just the cd and vita case in a plastic bag. The packaging must have been severely damaged, if they just took everything out. Oh well, back it goes. I think I'm done trying to get this game

Well clearly you didn't want the game since you had the game and are sending it back. ;)

 
Buy a travel size cereal box and print out the outside pages of the Conception Box and glue to outside cereal box. Congrats You have your box now lol
Sounds like too much work lol.

I only want the box because I can get the game cheaper down the road(non first print or used). If I spend $25.xx now, I might as well get everything the first print comes with.
 
It's too bad that there doesn't seem to be a designated restock day like there was last month. I can only hit refresh on the Xbox One page so many times in a day.
