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





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!

How in the world does Nintendo still price the wiiu at $300? You can buy an Xbox or ps4 for $50 more. Wiiu doesn't have but like 1 game coming the rest of the year

To make up for all the people who get them cheap.

 

[Modoru]

I ordered a GTX 970 last week, decided I wanted to send it back and get a 980 ti. Well, it arrived today and lo and behold, in that 980 ti packaging was another 970!

*sigh* I've had to contact amazon a few times lately. I'm not going to take a $300 hit though. This one's going back and I'll prob just order a new one.

EDIT: Well that was nice. They said thanks for letting them know about the possible bait and switch and they were sorry, if I wanted another one to just order a brand new one and they'd price match it

Give me the 970! :3

PS4 The Last of Us Remastered Bundle - Used - Very Good - $294.51

Looks like dinger descriptions.

When it comes to bundles like this, do the game digital vouchers count as the DLC described in the potentially missing description or are you guaranteed to get them?

 

[plus1zero]

Give me the 970! :3

I'll gladly sell you the one I'm about to send back for $300

Nice, would ask for it but Modoru ninja'd it.

Curious, I thought you can run the video cards of the same family in SLI. I know if he does that (if possible) the 980 will act like another 970 but two video cards would make for nice bragging rights in the Steam deals board!

 

[Blade]

Please, synnarc's fridge has a better graphics card.

(kidding, that's a great deal; you can only SLI identical cards, though)

 

[sovereignNX-73811]

Shoot. Looks like only older AMD cards can do that? Ugh. Not doing AMD cards again; no more driver issues please!

 

[BarrettSan]

Definitely no guarantee of anything, but if they're dingers, they should probably have the code.

New Nintendo 3DS XL - Black - Very Good - $148.32

Downloadable content (DLC) or codes for online play may require additional purchase. Item is in original packaging, but packaging has damage. Small (less than 1/4" x 1/4") cosmetic imperfection on front of item.

 

[krishna_malladi]

^Sounds/reads like a dinger.

It almost certainly is. Lots of good stuff going up today!

I've got a like new 970 I'll sell you for 300. The one that came today I'm returning because I paid more for it. The one I got last week I'd gladly sell for 300.

 

[Modoru]

(you can have it sov, I can't validate spending $300 when I got a functional 760.)

 

[Beatles93]

I keep reading sov and having to remember its not an acronym.

He's not laughing at him due to paying full price. He's lauging at him for buying it over an actual good next-gen system like the Ouya.

Because theyre the suckers that allow us to get stuff super cheap. Thats why I only laughed on tbe inside, so they dont wise up.

Amazon finally messed up a delivery today. Had an e-torx set coming today I needed this weekend. I ordered it Wednesday morning with a guaranteed delivery of today. I went to check tracking just now and it gave me a LaserShip tracking number (what the is that?) and it says "Item not received by carrier." Anyone have any idea what any of that means?

It means you just got hit by a laser ship. PEW PEW.

Sounds like you're yet another getting screwed by the worst of regional carriers.

Never heard of them until today. The more you know I guess.

Amazon seems to have gone almost entirely away from these crappy couriers but they were using them almost constantly about two years ago. Lots of people getting screwed by them all the time. I recall one person here having their stuff stolen or opened by them or something like that.

Is Lasership as good as Ontrac? 

If so I'm jealous I don't live in an area they deliver in.

You should move to an area that uses Lasership. You'll thank me later.

Downloadable content (DLC) or codes for online play may require additional purchase. Cosmetic damage (Less than 20%) on the sides of the item. Crack or dent (Less than 10%) on the sides of the item. Item will come in original packaging. Packaging will be damaged.

Fallout CE has flimsy packaging, but I'm soooo tempted to pick it up despite the listing... then go tomorrow to return the one I *just* bought at the store

 

[jeffcrazy]

google reviews for Lasership.. you'll find gems like "they threw it in the ditch down the road from my house, found it the next day when I was driving somewhere in the morning"... I ordered something to send to a friend in FL from Walgreens, who used them to deliver - they got it OK, if that makes you feel any better.

Did any of you ever have anything delivered by Prestige? My first experience with them years ago is surprisingly similar to the Lasership story here; I bought something with Prime and a couple of days later, when it's supposed to be delivered, I check the tracking through Amazon and it says it's in transit, but checking it out through Prestige's site gave me a "Item sent to wrong facility" as the latest update.

Of course, emailing Amazon about it got me another one sent through a reliable courier (never had the Prestige one arrive), but I had to go through a year or two where I was always worrying if they were going to use Prestige for what I was ordering. Many of the times they did, it would either be late or never show up at all, plus everything was delivered by people wearing everyday clothes in what looked like their own personal vehicles. Haven't seen anything shipped by them in probably a couple of years now, so I hope they're gone for good.

Yep, Prestige served this area and it was always a shit show.

 

[whoknows]

I've always enjoyed the excitement Ontrac provided of will it show up at 7:59pm the day it's supposed to be delivered or will it show up some other day?

Spoiler

The answer is at 7:59pm on some other day

Like the external HD I ordered last year from rakuten on ebay ;_;

My dad worked for them for a brief while in this area. And yep, they were definitely a shit show.

Guess he needed a reminder of what much better jobs wouldn't be like, with working at Prestige?

 

[Olengie]

Never had a problem with Ontrac. When I do get screwed over, its usually FedEx or USPS

 

[shadowharold]

I have fallen, Amazon closed my account  , thanks to a couple of PS3's that I bought that came console only, and after some chats they gave me a return less refund on both of them and that pissed them off.So now I have to open one on behalf of my wife  .

I'm pretty sure that won't work. You're really really screwed now and forever.

Were those console only ps3s listed as (A)? Also, you can let us know if your wife's account works, but the stories I've heard is that Amazon basically burns you to the ground and salts the earth afterward...but let us know.

 

[Gedemer]

Hope you didnt have your wife's CC on your account....

 

[CocheseUGA]

Just for those two PS3s? Something isn't adding up.

 

[shadowysea07]

My luck sucks with AWD. I was prepping up the ps3 i got 2 months ago to trade into gamestop.. Freaking yellow light of death... UGH!!!!

Thing worked perfect before this. Only LN for me from now on.. Even then im going to be hesitant.

ooh that makes me worried about mine.

Yes they were (A) but I also got refunds on a WIIU, a Tablet that came with a dead battery, and for a 2DS that had a faulty game card slot, but yeah so far my wife's account is working it has a week or so and I already bought some PSN codes, also I used a different address( since I am from out of the US and the shipping company that I use, is located in several states) but yeah well see and what happens, also my wife CC wasn't on my account so that's something.

 

[billyrox]

So 5 complaints/returns in what time span? 

 

[Kotor15]

I contacted Amazon about the LaserShip issue. As usual they tried to throw free stuff at me but I declined. I don't want to use up my requests on a delayed package. They said they'd contact them and try to get it to me asap.

I guess a different name and different address would do it especially since the second address was never associated with the previous account. Just curious, the other stuff you mentioned, were they all return less refunds? I'm guessing they were since shipping back to Amazon would be a pain if you were using a forwarding service. Yeah, that would make sense you got banned if that was the case.
