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! :)

Agreed, but it also depends on how often you contact amazon. Two times for one item might be a lot, but if you never contact amazon or return things you might be fine. $10 is not an insignificant amount of money, so it might be worth the risk if you don't pester Amazon much.
I agree for this particular item he will be fine if he has no other returns recently.

However, what about in a month when he gets something off AWD that is broken or is the wrong item? He will wish he didn't push for that 2nd credit.
 
"Item may come repackaged. Factory sealed. Small mark on disk."

WUT?

If it doesn't have the original box then I don't really want it. What do you guys think?
That's he one I skipped. It sounds like it's a trade in without a box. The one I grabbed had damaged packaging.

"Factory Sealed" in AWD doesn't mean what you think it means :) It means AWD sealed it.

 
I've failed you.  You have my deepest apologies.  :D/

I held off due to the uncertainty.  My instincts are on point, whereas my cognitive reading skills are somewhat lacking.

I've been up most of the night waiting for PlayStation VR to go on sale.

 
Got my persona Dancing all night edition (Acceptable)

IT WAS A DINGER!!!

still wrapped, just the side is really mucked up.

For some reason, my photo was cut off I'll send better pictures later...

Thanks for the responses. You guvs convinced me to let it go and I think that's a good decision.

My opinion is just not worth it. Getting credit for the same item twice may count bad against you. I think you should leave it fly...
Good point. If I hadn't asked already, it would be one thing, but asking twice seems to be pushing it.

Since you were willing to buy it at the highest price and already received an additional discount, just drop it. It's not worth the risk.
Really good point. Funny thing is that I thought the original price was a steal, and now it's dropped $20. Oh well, could have easily gone up.

Agreed, but it also depends on how often you contact amazon. Two times for one item might be a lot, but if you never contact amazon or return things you might be fine. $10 is not an insignificant amount of money, so it might be worth the risk if you don't pester Amazon much.
I don't pester Amazon much, but there's been a few times - Most recent being ordering Mario Maker for release date delivery and having the item not even ship until a few days afterward, that I don't think I'm in danger territory, but I'm worried about pushing it since I try to keep my complaints legitimate. If it was less of a difference, I wouldn't have even questioned it, but yeah, $10 is not an insignificant amount, so it got me wondering.

I agree for this particular item he will be fine if he has no other returns recently.

However, what about in a month when he gets something off AWD that is broken or is the wrong item? He will wish he didn't push for that 2nd credit.
Really good point. $10 is not a small amount, but I'll definitely wish I would have held off if I run into problems with a more expensive item.

I like how stringycupps1 said when you get "something off AWD that is broken or is the wrong item." So true. It's not an if, it's a when.
Sad but true. But Amazon has made the decision that it's more profitable to send out shoddy products and issue refunds for broken items tp than pay enough in payroll for the staff to properly test things.

 
my new favorite Amazon practice is how they randomly lump the stuff you buy into seperate shipments - that way it's really hard to make it to the $35 it takes for free same day delivery.   Sometimes I go to buy 6 items and Amazon splits it into 4 shipments so that I can't get same day on anything.  

I'm not even mad, really, it's just funny to me.  I've become very zen about the Amazon world - I'm just happy I can still use them so there's a lot of stuff I just let slide (5 days to deliver a video game that's in stock using Prime 2 day!).

 
This isn't a steelbook like ME2 and ME3 were, this is a big metalpack about twice the thickness of a standard steelbook. Cover art looks great compared to the stock release and it's one of the CEs I won't ever sell. Looks like the bottom's out on it if it's on Amazon at less than half MSRP of $79.99, even as a (G).
On top of that, it's a damn good game. Definitely a solid price if someone hasn't played it yet.

Agreed. This and Bioshock were my reasons to buy a 360.

The story IMO is the best out of the three, the game mechanics have their moments of frustration, though it's a great game and hooked me into the ME universe.

The atmosphere and lore are top notch. I actually fell asleep managing my inventory though. I'm told it is vastly improved in the sequels but I was never able to finish the first one for multiple reasons.

ME3, IMO, has the best inventory options between ME2, which simplifies things a little too much from ME1, and ME1, which had options out the wazoo.

I would recommend finishing ME1 if you can and then go through the other two games, to see how the series ended up.

 
UGH I want that Mass Effect CE...I have CE for ME 2 and 3....but at that price im going to guess that CE is beat up to hell or something.... :(

I feel the exact same way. I really want to buy it, but don't want to pay $100 for a mint condition one. This one is likely beat up pretty bad...maybe I'll take the chance and get lucky. If it is beat I can just return it.

 
Whats the return policy? I have never purchased something off of amazon warehouse. I do have some amazon credit i could use but still....if its beat up ugh. :(

 
bit on a happy home designer new 3ds for 153 with this description.  

Condition: Used - Acceptable - May be missing one of the following: manual, cover art, or packaging. Bonus downloadable content may have already been redeemed.

should i take the chance that it's a dinger/in perfect condition with the code still valid? (wanted to give the game download to my gf) or should i cancel and buy it new for 185 instead?

 
thanks for opinions!

the likelihood of getting a working code on something that old and in Acceptable condition is probably about -12.58%

your expectations should be for a loose console in a plain box, visibly used, with one set of cover plates.
anything beyond that count yourself lucky.

but it's AWD, anything can happen.

I ordered a Red 3DS XL a few days ago, and it hasn't seen any movement, despite me having Prime. It's supposed to come Monday, but I feel if it hasn't moved, it's not coming. Should I cancel? I feel that I might as well, considering I do have Best Buy coupons for the weekly ad deal next week.

I picked up a 20th Anniversary PS4 controller about an hour ago.  I was on my phone so I wasn't able to get the description saved.  It was graded acceptable, but the description said something about a scratch on the box but factory sealed.  Seemed weird to be that it would be acceptable but also factory sealed.  

***EDIT***

Here is the wording:

Condition: Used - Acceptable - Downloadable content (DLC) or codes for online play may require additional purchase. Item may come repackaged. Factory Sealed. Large cut / scratch on Cover Art. Large wrinkle / bend on Cover Art.
