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

Does anyone know if the vita power grip they advertise on the gamestop website is for the 1000 or 2000? It's not specified on there at all. http://m.gamestop.com/catalog/product/102036

The in-stock one priced at $19.99 is for the 2000, while the $19.97 out-of-stock listing is for the 1000. You can tell by looking closely at the product image--the $19.99 listing shows the Vita 2000 with the circular Start/Select buttons.

Ah thanks! I've never seen the new vita's, so I wouldn't think to look for differences.
 
Borderlands 2 Vita... for almost near MSRP.

Granted It's OOS on Amazon, Wal-Mart.com and Best Buy.com (only store pick up).

Tempted to grab one in the long run especially looking at the lack of games the PSTV can play.

Pretty much every Walmart I have been to recently has had a couple of them in the case.

Not many around here in CT. But when I was in Maine I saw a lot. I should have grabbed one I guess, but Cowboom will probably bitch smack me back into reality when then higher grades appear again.

Yeah, I've been trying to look one for myself. Just wait, I'm sure Amazon will get more. They had some the other day. I also saw a brand new one for $93.xx and took a stab at it. The seller had over 1200 feedback, so why not. Hopefully you find one.

As usual just ignore anyone that just degrades something without reason. The 2DS is awesome and if portability isn't a factor a better overall system than the standard 3DS. The form factor is significantly better to hold, the screens are brighter and sharper because it lacks the 3DS filter, and while the finish is more plastic it still feels like a solid Nintendo product. The sound (mono instead of stereo) is the only thing besides the portability that I can really think of as a detraction. So if you want a system to play 3DS games and you're playing it almost entirely at home or somewhere that it doesn't need to go in a pocket the 2DS is very solid.
Click to expand...
Oh, I am ignoring them because I understand all the reasons for the changes when they don't. :whistle2:

As long as I have a pair of pants with deep pockets I should be able to carry it around with me. My PS Vita can fit in my pants pocket but the two Analog Sticks also make it so it's slightly harder to pull it back out since they like to stick. Honestly, the speaker doesn't really bother me. I pretty much already play with earphones in on my Vita. My only other problem right now is that the (2DS sale for $99 at Target) only has the Blue and Red 2DS systems. The Sea Green is backorderd and it says it can take at least 2-4 weeks to get more in. I wouldn't mind waiting a bit but that does seem like a long time and there's really nothing else I want for my Birthday besides the some material goods. The Sea Green color is more enticing to me than the other ones.

that's what I have. Only gripe is that the mesh area is really narrow and barely fits the adapter. I also have the batter pack and that just sits somewhat loosely in the larger open area between the small case and the mesh portion.

 
PS4 - Very Good - $335.76 - "Downloadable content (DLC) or codes for online play may require additional purchase. Item has been tested to be fully functional. Item will come repackaged. Small (less than ¼" x ¼") cosmetic imperfection on top of item. Small (less than ¼" x ¼") cosmetic imperfection on the sides of item. All accessories are present and undamaged."

Sounds like a trade-in, not a dinger.  Still, not a bad price.

Surprised to see it still up. That's a solid price.

 
:ps4: Murdered Soul Suspect $41.12

Solid price, I really want to try this game out, but personally i'm going to wait until it's around $20.

Has :ps4: Wolfenstein showed up does anyone know and how much? Just curious.

Cheapest I have seen it is around $35 if I'm not mistaken. I got mine for $41 though.

I would just redbox that game. I heard its kinda short. No idea though as I haven't played it yet.
 
Took couple of chances that paid off:

:360: Lost Odyssey (NextWorth - Good Condition) - $13.04

I haven't had experience with Nextworth before, but may be worth the risk at that price :)

Ordered :gc: Animal Crossing in good condition from NextWorth for $16.55 and it came complete and in mint condition. Surprisingly it also included the "Memory Card 59" with the game. Very pleased with the purchase.

From what I saw from Target trade ins (NextWorth side of things deals with their video games), folks taking trade ins overall were pretty strict about complete copies for trade ins so I trust them for standard games but not so much for collector or limited editions.

^ Update on this:

Another pleasant surprise was the purchase of :wiiu: Mario Kart 8 from AWD that was listed in good condition for $38.64. The game came repackaged in a 360 case with a clear circle AWD sticker on the case. The cover and inserts were all there. I figured that the codes were used but to my joy the club Nintendo code was still intact. :D/

Pretty happy about both of these. :D

I picked mine up form here for $35.54 in acceptable condition (just a tear on the cover art) for ps4 and finished it in 3 days granted I did both campaigns and took my sweet time with it. Game is certainly worth picking up rental or otherwise. It was really well done. The easter egg was fun too (don't want to ruin the fun for those who have not played it yet) .

So, I just found a copy of plants vs zombies garden warfare for the xbox one on AWD for $24 total and that's including shipping. Good deal?
Click to expand...
It is a good deal if that is what you end up paying for it (not including shipping and taxes). Otherwise, NextWorth has it for $28.44 in like new, good, and acceptable conditions followed by Amazon, who is selling it new for $34.87 (and those are ok deals).

Hmm. I might bite at $35. I'll have to keep my eyes open. Thanks.

 
My $41.57 Very Good Mario Kart 8 arrived and it appeared to be in pristine shape. The shrinkwrap was missing and it was sealed with an AWD sticker. The club nintendo code was there but I haven't tried it yet as I'm waiting until July 1st as I'm already Platinum for the year. Hopefully it hasn't been used. Oh yeah, the game works too. :)

 
Just found out the Vita sold 56k last month just with the Borderlands 2 bundle alone.

The previous month it only did 3.3k. No wonder the BL2 bundle is hard to find lol

If you've waited this long I'd seriously wait a bit longer it will be $30 new in no time. The game sold well and the market will be overflowed with copies just like assassins creed games.

It is Ubisoft game so a price drop is to be expected. How soon on next gen though, that remains to be seen.

For some reason, I kind of doubt it can keep up the momentum.

Unless I'm really underestimating the popularity of the Borderlands series.

I think it took assassin creed black flag a good 5 months before it even got close to $30 new on either next gen system iirc. Probably due to the fact that not many next gen games are out yet so even ubisoft games on next gen might take awhile to drop unlike the last gen versions which usually drop much faster

More than likely I see gamefly putting it on sale down the road within that time frame. I see it being on sale for $39.99 in the coming months but no less for a while like you said.

hopefully they come back to market soon, no one anywhere near me nor Amazon has it :/

Everyone has the old one though, but I want the slim for the extended battery
Click to expand...
Yeah, kinda suprising. Sony probably was hesitant about producing them though, considering how poorly they've sold overall. Didn't take much interest to dwindle supply. Unrelated, but used that Nyko powergrip off/on all day today playing Sly and it just now died. Probably a good 4-5 hours.

 
I just got my very good Vita Slim borderlands edition. The code was unused but there seems to be a small gash on the screen. Its very small but damn its annoying. To return or not to return...
