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 is this "glitch deals" that I keep hearing about in this thread?
On August 7th, 2014, AWD glitched out similar to how it did around penny deals, except lot of stuff went for cheap instead for a penny. The pricing algorithm went haywire and in the process lot of stuff went for cheap across the AWD spectrum from games to iphones to tablets and everything else in between. The "glitch deal" lasted for maybe a couple of hours and fellow CAGs that were around during that time made out like a bandit. Below is the timeline leading up to the night and the deals that went down on that night.

Items sold by Warehouse Deals and shipped to destinations in Alaska are also subject to local sales 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".

AWD product description says "Factory Sealed", is this item new?
First and foremost, AWD sells used / open box items so in their terms it has been sealed / resealed at an Amazon Warehouse and hence the "Factory Sealed" part so no it isn't necessarily new. It isn't necessarily new because it could go one of two ways:

1. It was traded in / open box return / test unit that was resealed at an Amazon warehouse facility.
2. It was a dinger (new with damaged packaging and with seals intact).

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

Any tips on finding deals?
Sure! Here is a guide for a plugin for Chrome users to set alerts for items. Part 2 of the tutorial helps get AWD link to item not currently instock or that hasn't come out yet.

For Chrome users PageMonitor is a handy plugin to catch deals. (Guide listed below)
For Mozilla users, Check4Change is a handy alternate plugin to that of chrome's.

Also, http://theforklift.net/ for those looking for AWD deals in a pinch.

From my original post (concerning PageMonitor and AWD links):

I wonder if I'm doing it right. I'm adding the used page of the product (and selecting free shipping to filter it), however the program alerts me there is a change eventough there is none (the Sorry message we see when there are no products with free shipping - usually AmazonWarehouse).
The way I do it is selecting the price itself. For example I go here: http://www.amazon.co...&qid=1427814309 then I select the game/console that I want too look and click where it say used (dont click on the item link, click where it say used under the item you want). Then with page monitor I select monitor this page. After that I go to options (on the page monitor tab) advance and then click custom mode, pick. That will open a new tab withe the webpage of the item that I selected to monitor and there is where I select the price (the number) of the item. Then click done. Thats it, thats how it worked for me.
Time to revisit Feb 25th 2014 (and March 30th 2012) :




Time to revisit March 30th 2012 :). I posted a guide then and it very much still applies with some tweaking to what I know now, so on with it.

Before I begin, know this that you need to go to the AWD site if you are after something specific from AWD like the vita in this example. Also you can fast click the link to the edition you want (if it is a console, handheld, or games), and see each price for AWD only items if they are available. You would be lucky to see something pop up on AWD if bunch of people are hunting down the same hot ticket item at any given time. On that note, the alert DOEScatch AWD items before they appear on AWD and if sniped quickly (1-click), others will most likely just see a ghost listing on AWD by the time it appears on AWD page. Setting alert on AWD page also eliminates false positive alerts since only AWD listings will appear on AWD page vs every minute change that will happen on the main Amazon listing page. Now onto the guide:


This may help answer the question for few who are wondering how to use "Page Monitor" extension for Chrome.

Once the extension is installed, do this. Select the AWD page (not the main Amazon listing page to avoid false positive alerts) to be monitored by clicking on the Page Monitor icon and selecting "Monitor This Page" link (Use the link swapping trick mentioned earlier to get to the page if the game isn't out yet). Then go to Page Monitor options and do as following:
gallery_327158_7630_1370780661_26889.jpg


(You can choose to have custom notification sound, desktop notification, length of duration for notification, and the length of duration for refreshing as you please.)

Once done tweaking the settings, then do this:
gallery_327158_7630_1370780661_26890.jpg


Once you have done step 6, you have set the page to be monitored and you are set. A notification will go off that a change has been found but that is just to notify that you have set an alert. Mark it off as visited and from this point forward you are set to go.

Pro Tip: Set it to monitor the "used" tab via "selector" under the options by checking off "custom mode" instead of monitoring the whole page. If you set if from the warehouse side then it will only alert you if one pops up in the warehouse.

Those step diagrams have been here since the 1st time I made the guide back in March of 2012 and it is under my profile in my gallery so feel free to revisit it if the need arises.

I hope that helps my fellow CAGs. Happy hunting everyone :)





Mulder, on 04 May 2015 - 3:24 PM, said:

One thing for the procedure is that there are no New 3DSs available in the warehouse at this time, so I need to wait to test this approach.
Part 2 of the equation on how to get notification for items not on AWD and or ones say coming out in the future (like MGS V: CE)

Do this to get AWD listings for those items. Open a link to an AWD item (any item) but it needs to be an AWD link. Say something like this:

http://smile.amazon..../offer-listing/B00841ZJYO/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used&m=A2L77EE7U53NWQ&qid=1430778305&sr=1-15

The part in bold is the Amazon's item listing and each item has its own unique listing identifier so to get the new XL item listing go to the item's page and from it's link get B00S1LRX3W

http://www.amazon.co...DS-XL-Black/dp/B00S1LRX3W/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1430778512&sr=1-1&keywords=new+3ds+xl

and replace the B00841ZJYO with B00S1LRX3W in the AWD link and voila you have AWD listing for an item not yet availabe.

http://smile.amazon..../offer-listing/B00S1LRX3W/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used&m=A2L77EE7U53NWQ&qid=1430778305&sr=1-15

Here are all the new xl links:

Nintendo - New 3DS XL Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Limited Edition - Gold/Black
New Nintendo 3DS XL - Black
Nintendo New 3DS XL Red

I hope that helps. Good luck and happy hunting! :)

There's another $269.30 PS4.
This is a really good price, but I just can't justify it with already owning an Xbox One. Sure, I would like to play Uncharted 4 and Zero Dawn eventually when they release, but those seem so far off at this point. I can play pretty much everything multi platform on there or my PC. I would love for someone to push me over the edge.

 
Is there a point in buying the Xbox One Unity edition other than for the console? I assume Unity is a code to DL the game right and that'd be almost guaranteed to be used already, so you're basically buying the xb1 console and controller for $22# right?

I have an XB1 but once I got my PS4 I rarely use my XB1 anymore. If you're content and have enough to play right now though, there's no point spending the money on another console, IMO.

ur wrong bcuz i bought an xbox 1ne and i still use it even tho i got a wii for $50 the other day

 
I've been sticking with the Ouya for this generation. No point in even bothering with the Xbox One or PS4 in comparison.

Bloodborne?

Honestly, if you have a Vita or even a PS3, cross-platform compatibility, PS+ free games and remote play are something Xbox isn't even close to achieving. If Sony ever gets the pricing right for PS Now and PS Vue, it may be game over... But alas they are still milking those heavily.

I bought a PS4 even though I disliked the PS3 because I own Vita and subscribe PS+. Xbox One wouldn't let me transfer any of my XBL content from 360, of which I have way too much to just eat it. Adios MS, hello Sony. Who'd have thought?

MS made far too many missteps this gen, Sony has finally caught up in online features to XBL, which was MS only real advantage last gen. Unless you are a Halo or Gears of War junkie.
 
This is a really good price, but I just can't justify it with already owning an Xbox One. Sure, I would like to play Uncharted 4 and Zero Dawn eventually when they release, but those seem so far off at this point. I can play pretty much everything multi platform on there or my PC. I would love for someone to push me over the edge.
Do you want Bloodborne? Then pull the trigger.

Everything else honestly I can't say is worth owning the system for if you've got an X1. I liked the order okay, Driveclub is fun but Forza is better in every way. TLoU is good if you've never played it.

Right now there's not many ps4 exclusives worth getting sadly. I bought my ps4 at launch, first console I've ever done at launch, and it's just been okay. I'm still waiting for that Greatness.

The X1 though, they've really done a good job I guess in part thanks to that E3 fiasco. They've been knocking it out of the park all gen.

And since you've got a good PC, you've got the better graphics option. The difference between the X1 and PS4 is very minuscule.

But yeah...Bloodborne is a GOOD game. Might be my goty. I dunno. I really liked Batman.
 
I've been sticking with the Ouya for this generation. No point in even bothering with the Xbox One or PS4 in comparison.
I'm with you on that. Maybe if they port bejeweled 2 and dragon mania legends over, I'd buy a ps4. Until that day Ouya and windows phone for me.
 
I released a $269 PS4 (A).  It had no description so I was worried about a missing controller.  I picked up a $279 (after cowboom10 and tax) PS4 with a controller from cowboom and I think I saw one more with a controller, but it was a few pages in.

EDIT: scratch that.  they start at page 10 and there are 4 of them in "fair" condition with controllers.

I wish I didn't buy my xbox1

I'm sure in the long run I'll get my value out of the system. I is just i wish i would have waited and gotten a better deal. Did not realize that I would be so PS4 gung ho after last gen being the opposite
 
If you get it before 2/27 you could always flip it to GameStop for the $100 credit towards a New 3DS. That's what I was going to do had it still been available.
But the DS Lite isn't included among the eligible systems, and anyway, I'm holding out for Nintendo to announce the smaller New 3DS.

Okay, i'm pretty sure they aren't giving $100 for nintendo DSs. Are they? If they are I need to go...right now!

 
Me too. That's why I went back in time and stopped myself from buying it.

Because of that World War 3 was prevented.
Did you meet yourself when you were there? Also, whatever happened to CAGs helping CAGs. If you were going back in time, why didnt you say anything - I needed a few things fromfrom back then. *disappointed shake of head*
 
Let's be honest, if that were really true you'd have made time and eternity available on all platforms
Maybe that happened. Maybe people couldn't handle it.

Enjoy your comfortable life of never being a WW3 p.o.w.

You're welcome. Gosh.

We're taking a road trip in your Delorean, NOW!
It's a myth that Deloreans can reach 88mph

 
I've been there. Not having a working car is a great excuse to stay home all day.
Car's going on 23, leaking brake fluid (well, not right now, there's none in the car, haha), had to replace the engine (among several other parts), and it WILL shake around 55-70, depending on the day.

I just want to go golfing. I haven't been able to in 3 weeks because of it (normally go 1-2 times/week).

 
Thanks for the advice on the PS4, guys. I decided to pass. I have no interest in Bloodborn or Second Son. I am perfectly happy to play multiplats on my Xbox One for the time being. I do like PS+, but I think I will wait until Uncharted comes out and reevaluate.

If a long game with replay value like Bloodbourne won't sway you into buying a PS4, then I don't know why a 10 hour linear interactive movie would.

As someone in a boat similar to him: More exclusives at that point, including that full Uncharted collection, plus I might snag MLB 16: The Show. Granted, unlike him, I'll probably get Bloodborne when I finally get a PS4, but I'm planning to first get a used PS3, beat the games on there I care about, then trade it in during the next GameStop/Best Buy trade deal.

There is nothing wrong with Bloodbourne, but it is certainly not for me. I have tried to play Dark Souls in the past. I like ten hour long interactive movies, shoot me, I guess?
 
Not deal related, but how much is a good price for an (A) Xbox One 500GB HDD with Kinect? How much is a great price for it (DS2U's find, notwithstanding)?

I want to see how it compares to a local deal on CL I'm eyeing.

Good price - above $250
Great price - below $250
