F.A.Q's

Spoiler

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!

shhh there's only videogames on AWD nothing else anybody would ever want to look at shhhhhhhh lol  

the stuff in the toy section lasts so long compared to videogames (mainly because people want "mint" boxes and AWD isn't gonna give you that - but you're not gonna get mega bucks off the stuff AWD offers so who cares if the box is dinged)

I never really thought about figures on AWD.

DS2U, do you know if there's anyway to gift yourself Prime with the current sale going on this weekend? I know in the past you had a method for it but can't remember if it still works or not.

DS2U, do you know if there's anyway to gift yourself Prime with the current sale going on this weekend? I know in the past you had a method for it but can't remember if it still works or not.

i gifted myself a year of prime last year, if you are currently a prime member you have to wait until your membership is over and then use the gifted prime code. otherwise they will just offer you a giftcard for $79, or whatever you paid for a year of prime, if you try to redeem while you are still a prime member.

Don't do it If you have grandfathered account that link to 4 family or friend members.

How often do gaming chairs pop up on here or go on sale? I'm hoping to find one like this
http://m.target.com/p/x-rocker/-/A-21460866

Tbh I don't know why I need a gaming chair specifically. I just like that one

 

[headpiece747]

So I have $75 in Amazon credit and Prime is currently $73 so I am in dilemma of blowing it all on Prime and having it for another year and not using it much or just keep waiting for something to pop up that I am waiting for to use the credit on.

 

[billyrox]

Dont buy PRime if you already have netflix.

 

[Miami Flash15]

Dont buy PRime if you already have netflix.

Netflix offers free 2-day shipping?

 

[headpiece747]

Dont buy PRime if you already have netflix.

Yeah I am leaning towards not because I have Netflix and Hulu because I cut cable awhile ago but now I have to always skip little deals under $35 because I am too cheap to pay for shipping.

 

[shadowysea07]

Don't do it If you have grandfathered account that link to 4 family or friend members.

and if one of them get banned all 5 will get nuked killing each of those addresses >.>

 

[shadowysea07]

Do you buy more than 20 little things every year? If you don't then you are better off just paying for the 2-4$ shipping. Not like this matters as free shipping only applies to direct from amazon items that aren't add ons.

Its a shame they increased the free shipping to 35 though since it was alot easier to hit the 25 cap from 3 years ago.

As a current prime member, can you gift yourself a year of prime using credit at the sale price? I thought that was fixed last year.

Prime shipping is awesome, their video service though... Not so much..

Can someone explain the factory sealed description for me please? Haven't seen that one since the last time I used AWD. There's no way they're just brand new right?

 

[DesertLeo]

Can someone explain the factory sealed description for me please? Haven't seen that one since the last time I used AWD. There's no way they're just brand new right?

Sometimes yeah, the package might just have a dented corner or a slit from box cutters. That sort of thing.

 

[tinypoem]

Sometimes yeah, the package might just have a dented corner or a slit from box cutters. That sort of thing.

It could also be a trade on sealed with Amazon's own plastic shrink wrap.

That too. You honestly don't know for sure until you get it.

Can someone explain the factory sealed description for me please? Haven't seen that one since the last time I used AWD. There's no way they're just brand new right?

Nothing on AWD can be explained. Its all random.

Depends. Could be:
A) Factory sealed as in they, AWD, just re-wraps it on their own

or

B) Factory sealed as in brand new, with a little damage to it -- I've received a fair share of each, and with the new ones, the box is damaged, but the seal is still there.

So I have $75 in Amazon credit and Prime is currently $73 so I am in dilemma of blowing it all on Prime and having it for another year and not using it much or just keep waiting for something to pop up that I am waiting for to use the credit on.

I don't think you can pay for prime with Amazon credit.

I get enough use out of Prime to keep it around. I use the Prime music and free book a month all the time and occasionally Prime video or Prime pantry have some good stuff. Plus 2 day shipping for all the little stuff I need but can't find for a decent price in stores. 

I can see where someone wouldn't get a lot of use out of it though. If they didn't use a couple of those features, it wouldn't be worth it. 

You can use Amazon gift cards to buy Prime. Well you could a few months ago anyway.

nice dude! what was the first AWD xbox one you got that I remember being insanely jealous of? was it like $180 or something? I remember thinking at the time that it would be years before the price you got would be commonplace. I guess I could search but then I'd be robbing everybody else of the chance to read about this lol

It was $100.xx for the launch kinect bundle and one of the first next gen consoles to hit that price mark at the time.

DS2U, do you know if there's anyway to gift yourself Prime with the current sale going on this weekend? I know in the past you had a method for it but can't remember if it still works or not.

As a current prime member, can you gift yourself a year of prime using credit at the sale price? I thought that was fixed last year.

Donut is right. You cannot gift yourself Prime at the sale price as of this year. You can still gift Prime to yourself, just not at the discounted rate.

Oddly enough mine came with physical disks as well for the same said bundle.

I think the old bundle that walmart had a while back was the one with physical disks. The newer one has the dlc included but I would still rather have the disks and pay for the dlc if I were getting one now.

It's a real gamble essentially it just means Amazon used their own Shrink wrap on it. Last time I ordered something factory sealed was a "Like New" copy of either Mario Golf or Tennis on the GBA what I got was Mario Golf/Tennis for the GBC cart only with a nice big Inspected sticker on the front lol.

For example the difference between this being rated as "acceptable" or "Good- Factory Resealed" is just an AWD "Inspected" sticker .

The 20% off new games/preorders deal could definitely pay for itself if you buy enough games day 1 through the year, plus it's supposed to be good for LE/CE editions as well

Same here.

Haven't had it since July because Amazon's pretty sucky these days.

 

[shadowysea07]

only problem with prime is the crappy shipping both the wait and the quality ce/le wise is just so inconsistent or consistently bad.  But yeah with the 20% off on preorders that's a decent incentive since all it would take is 7 games a year and its already covering the cost.  Of course I read that not all games qualify though.

 

[amusedtoe]

If Amazon was going to do 20% of all games then it would be a no brainer. There's also the question of if that 20% is going to come off games that are mistakenly below 80% of MSRP which is the main reason to pre-order on Amazon.

of course if it does come off of cheap games they obviously will not be much off.
