F.A.Q's

What is Amazon Warehouse Deals?

Spoiler

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.

What is AmazonSmile?

Is the Amazon Warehouse Deals return policy the same as Amazon's return policy?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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.

What do you mean by a "dinger"?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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?

Spoiler

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.

Any tips on finding deals?

Spoiler

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:

(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:

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

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!

I think that PSU is the same as the 360 version right? Otherwise I'll be all over that. Played a couple of hours of it...fairly compelling but seemed to be easier and drags out longer than the PSP games.

And that OOT 3DS...I was gonna post that about half an hour ago and it had already went out of stock. Derp. Might have actually rebought it at that price.

 

[Needles-Kane]

Thanks, DS2U. Picked this up.

Cowboom has been having those for $80 and usually with 1 controller, that one most likely will not have one.

No problem. Not sure if you've been following the Cowboom thread but it might take a while for it to come up in rotation. I saw it many times last night at least.

I'd be wary of that NSMB 2. It's probably the one I just had to return because my XL wouldn't acknowledge there was even a game card in the slot.

 

[SwiftWind]

Ah crap I missed that Wii U (my niece came over with her adorable dog so I've been occupied). Thanks for posting all these deals D2U, you're beautiful. Maybe one day I'll get to jump on one

 

[shadowysea07]

So my acceptable ps2 arrived.  and came in its original box shockingly.

But I'm guessing its a trade in since its from bestbuy k .  

Even had the original receipt from what seems to be a very long time ago.  From what I could make out 150$ or so.  The receipt was very very faded.  

anyway I open the box and I find 2 memory cards 

2 controllers one of which is still wrapped and bagged

two sets of av cords and one power cord. one av cord still wrapped and bagged 

and finally 1 ps2 so disappointed since I was set up for 2 there  

Seems like whoever traded this in took the original disc tray cover and replaced it with this weird one.  I kinda like it.

Also came with the users manual, inserts and slips explaining esrb and how to set up internet and junk

 

[Needles-Kane]

Aren't those trays used for allowing the PS2 to use pirated games or something?

That looks like a flip-top case for swap magic (to play backup/burned games).

Anyone have experience here from Cowboom?  I could upgrade my X360 to the Slim with 320GB for $85 or I could just wait for a good price from Amazon.

 

[iosguy]

That's a pretty good price

only experience i have with them is bad experience. Customer service isnt good and if you have an issue with the console it takes several weeks to get a refund. Going on week 3 myself

Yup same thing happened to me 2 years ago. Looks like nothing has changed. Maybe I'll just wait til Black Friday and maybe Walmart or Target will clearance out they're old stock. Thanks!

I bought 2 Vitas and a PS3 from there. If I didn't know any better I would think the Vitas were brand new. The slim PS3 was clearly used but in good shape and works great.

isn't swap magic to bypass region lock? too bad it didn't come with it. Not like I need it as I already have a jpn ps2 I never use because importing sucks if you don't know moonrunes.

 

[Needles-Kane]

I've had pretty good experience with Cowboom.  I had one tablet come cracked which they refunded very fast and another time it didn't come with listed charger and they again fixed promptly.  I've had more problems with Amazon Warehouse.

Wii U Mario Kart 8 & Nintendoland 32GB Deluxe bundle (G) $201.85 (Dinger?!)

Grabbed this- thank you very much Dealseeker! I had been blasting my F5 key all day on Cowboom hoping for a unit- ultimately decided a complete package plus games was worth the extra money and didn't have to deal with that headache.

most of my experiences buying from them are great. even if you get a dud, you can return it easily with prepaid label. just within 15 days of receipt.

The alternating deals on Cowboom's DotD always vex me. I followed them pretty closely back when I was looking for a Vita, and somehow I always missed my chance at one. Every time I checked the DotD all I ever saw were various 360s... Now today with $90 Wii Us I'm getting the same problem. I'm starting to think maybe Cowboom just isn't gonna ever work out for me.

 

[PokeChaos480]

The Wii U doesn't come with the gamepad anyways from the ones I saw pop up.

 

[mlow44]

The $90 ones? Or just the $80 ones? From what I can tell, there are two different listings that are on sale today. $80 ones are "Console only" which is a terrible buy because the gamepads are currently $220, but if the $90 are all listed without gamepads included then that's obviously even worse.

Either way I probably won't come across any with my luck, anyways.

I had one pop up with it but it got snatched pretty quickly. So far just the system by itself and every now and then one with the av cable I believe. Yet to see a Vita though....

The $80 are the only ones that have showed up for me.

 

[tinypoem]

Thanks, DS2U. Picked this up.

Darn. I am always late to the party.

On a side note, does anyone thing the Wii U Zelda bundles (G $250.07, LN $281.33) are worth it? Im considering these or just getting an official refurb one with 1 yr warranty from the nintendo store for 240 plus tax.

Do you feel like paying an extra $50 for some tiny gold paint around the edge of the controller?

I have a question about Amazon returns; I think I've seen a few people have a similar experience here with other items. I rented a book from Amazon and the book had about a fourth of the pages ripped out, so I contacted customer service and they had me place an order for a new one and said they would adjust the price (the cheapest available one was around $60 higher than the one I had purchased) after it shipped. Well, I received the book two days ago and they just notified me today that they received my return for the first one and started processing it. I still haven't seen the price of the second book adjusted; I was just wondering if I should contact them again about the price adjustment or should I just wait until the return is processed? I wasn't sure if it was normal for the price to take a week or so to be adjusted.

Shouldn't take that long. I don't trust them when they say they'll adjust the price, especially since you have to pay the full amount up front. Good luck with this, and next time ask them to do the price adjustment immediately. I know, I just ordered a "set of 60" books and only received 1 out of the 60 volumes. Pretty big oversight there--it was from a third-party and fulfilled by Amazon, but still.

Always have them adjust the order while on the phone. You should just call back and ask them adjust it as per your last discussion with the rep.

Anytime I have had to do this my price ended up adjusted within an hour of placing the order. Never had an issue

Almost tempted to pick up another P4G and just keep it in the TV.

What's wrong with me? That's not even my genre.

No one can resist the urge of a vita game, doesnt matter the game, only that its on vita

 

[leecy]

Thanks for the advice, everyone. I will just contact them tomorrow and ask to get the price adjusted. I did save a copy of the transcript so I have that to fall back on, even though it isn't much.

right now the cheapest I saw on awd was 116. cowboom has better deals quite a few come with large hard drives and everything else for around 90-110 and cheaper with the 10$ off 100$ coupon.

You can't even play that version on Vita. It might as well not exist.
