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 states does Amazon charge sales tax?
Items sold by Amazon.com LLC, or its subsidiaries, and shipped to destinations in the following states are subject to tax:

Arizona
California
Connecticut

Florida
Georgia
Indiana
Kansas
Kentucky
Massachusetts
Nevada
New Jersey
New York
North Carolina
North Dakota
Pennsylvania
Tennessee
Texas
Virginia
Washington
West Virginia
Wisconsin

Note: No sales tax is charged when purchasing gift cards; however, purchases paid for with gift cards may be subject to 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".

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

I just finished Danganronpa, such an addicting game. And you can even "revisit" it by watching the anime.[/quote]that's exactly why its not for me lol

I don't like RPGs or tactical games so basically it doesn't offer much for me.

Sadly, I think it's a Catch 22. Without a big install base, it's not worth it for devs to really make games for the Vita. But without the games, the Vita isn't going to sell a ton. And yes, before people come in and cite to 4 or 5 good vita games, the vita does have good games. But it doesn't have enough must have games to really drive people to drop $200 on a system.

It doesn't have retail games and specifically ones that have name recognition and appeal to the mass market. The games that could be retail releases don't get them because no one barely even carries Vita games any more because they don't sell and take up space. They don't sell because not enough people have the system and a lot of gamers even don't understand the value in it so publisher's don't make the risky big budget retail titles. They don't make the retail games so no one sells Vita games. And on and on in a circle.

How many people with vitas are disappointed with their purchase? Haven't met one. It's such an incredible and underrated handheld...sadly they don't market it for anything. As for the too expensive thing, should be moot as the 3DS XL is $200 but sells like hot cakes.

I've bought an AWD Vita twice and sold it within a month or two of having it.

That being said, I am looking to give it another shot. Third time's the charm, yeah?

 
I was fairly disappointed with my PSP, even though I still have it eight years later or so. I sold my first DS. I'm wondering if I would enjoy the PSP more of it wasn't a 1000 series. Frigging slow as molasses. Games didn't look that appealing, at least to me. Fairly expensive, too.

i dont think its that they dont have the big name retail games, its just that they all have been mediocre. resistance, killzone, assassins creed, little big planet, madden, call of duty, batman, silent hill. actually sony has released a game from just about all their ip's, but if they arent good games, no one will buy them. hell the jak and daxter and god of war collections both have problems on the vita.

The Killzone Vita game is great.

I know it's not saying much, but it's the best handheld FPS ever made.

the vita is only good for persona 4 golden.  That's it.  The 3DS is a vastly superior handheld by virtue of third party support alone and I am not even taking into account the vast number of DS and nintendo titles.  PS3 owners have very little incentive to buy a vita unless they strongly prefer to play on a smaller screen seeing as how most vita titles are just ports.  The 3DS has games that are developed to utilize the unique features of the handheld and has a wider birth of titles.

Before you skewer me, realize that this is coming from a sony fanboy who bought a vita first and only bought a 3ds because it was $140 new during xmas and I wanted it for smt 4.  But it's pretty obvious why the vita is tanking.

Comparing Vita to 3ds is like comparing a firecracker to an atom bomb. You just don't do it. Vita will be dead in a year. Hoping to compete with the 3DSXL is the least of their problems.

 
I totally slept on the PSP and paid no attention to it until I bought a refurb PSP Go last week. Wow, the game library is massive and I've already added dozens of PSP games to my backlog/wishlist. I have owned a Vita for a year and can't figure out how the PSP got so many good games/franchises and why the Vita didn't turn out to be more of the same but with better graphics. Either way, I've now got months worth of PSP games to play through while I wait for the Vita to get some more support.

I've found plenty to keep me occupied with my Vita. (Shinobido 2, Silent Hill: Book Of Memories, Gravity Rush, Rayman Origins, Hot Shots Golf, Uncharted Golden Abyss, Persona 4 Golden and Dynasty Warriors NEXT) I've played other games but I didn't like them as much to keep them. I am interested in Conception II, Valhalla Knights 3 and YS: Memories of Celceta. It depends highly on your preferences but I think people can find more than P4: Golden if they're an owner of a Vita. Tales Of Heart R, Sword Art Online and FF-X/X2 might be a reason for others to take the plunge who're interested in the niche aspect.

Even I'll admit it's not doing well, but it's getting games slowly, but surely. Even the Vita has games that utilize it's tech. Uncharted: Golden Abyss, AC: Liberation, Gravity Rush, Little Deviants, Mortal Kombat and others. (Gyroscope. Augmented/Virtual Reality, Touch Controls etc.) The Vita reminds of the Wii U, in the way of Marketing I always see 3DS/2DS commercials but hardly for Wii U if any. The only Wii U commercials I've ever seen were on YouTube and even those only advertise first-party games. Where are my RPG's/JRPG's? At least the Vita still has the region-free aspect going for it.

While it's true that the 3DS has far more third-party support than the Vita in the states. If you take the time to look at the full library's of the games in both regions you'd see that the Vita beats the current 3DS library by at least 53 games in Japan. If only they took the time to bring out a lot more of that library then things would get better.

So wait, you have a Vita, which plays most PSP digital games and should look better on an OLED screen, but it took getting a PSPGo to look at the PSP library? Why wouldn't you play them on the Vita? :whistle2:k

I played all the way through Persona 3 Portable on my Vita, PSP games look OK on a Vita but they're scaled up and get a little fuzzy. I prefer playing them at their original native resolution. And I wanted to check out the homebrew/emulation possibilities on the PSP too. For $80, getting a manufacturer refurb PSP Go with 16GB storage built in seemed worth it.

It's true that I shouldn't have waited so long to start playing PSP games though, some of them are already 8 years old at this point.

Honestly? Me. I keep trying and trying but it doesn't do it for me. JRPGs haven't really done it for me since Lost Odyssey (Bravely Default aside) so its strongest point isn't a factor, remote play doesn't work in my apartment (too much interference I suppose?) and the games that have interested me have fallen flat (Uncharted: clunky and repetitive, Gravity Rush: clunky and repetitive, etc...)

I understand there's a market it cater towards I just haven't been able to accept that I'm not in it yet.
 
I continue to lukewarm enjoy my Vita, which I've had for at least a year. That said, I've owned a 3ds xl for 2 months and I've spent more time playing A Link Between Worlds than my entire Vita library.

Killzone is great, though. I have Resistance too but haven't played it yet. Going on a big road trip in a month and hoping to get a lot of use out of it while my wife is driving.

It's a profit and control thing with Sony. The cards are high margin required items on a system with little to no margin and because only Sony makes them they're guaranteed to get their cut instead of you being able to buy any old cheap brand.

problem is that they are priced too high and few retailers even want them because of how high they are and the easy theft issues.

I've logged 600 hours on Pokemon Y, and stopped in between to play A Link Between Words, Phoenix Wright, Dual Destinies, and the occasional round of Mario Kart 7.

On my Vita, I put like 50 hours into Disgaea 3... like, over a year ago... I should really check and see if that thing still turns on.

P4G is a masterpiece but even that is a port of a 2008 ps2 game.

What other vita exclusives are there after that? Dangon ranpa? Loved it but the DS has phoenix wright and professor layton and 999.

Demon Gaze? I'd rather play SMT4 and Strange Journey.

P4G isn't a port. It's a remake of the PS2 game with a lot of added stuff. Get it right at least.

And other vita exclusives? Let's see....

Uncharted GA

Soul Sacrifice/SS Delta

Lumines ES

Touch My Katamari

Street Fighter X Tekken (the definitive version)

Tearaway

Gravity Rush

Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus 1 & 2

Black Ops Declassified

Killzone Mercenary

Resistance Retribution

There are lots of others. That's just off the top of my head. While they may not appeal to you (who knows you may just want waifu games), the vita does have a lot of exclusives. The "vita has no games!" argument died a long time ago.

Valhalla Knights 3

YS: Memories of Celceta

Danganronpa 2

Toukiden (Also on PSP but might as well count)

Ragnarok Odyssey

Tales Of Heart R

And whatever else happens to be in the Wikipedia category for PS Vita exclusives. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:playStation_Vita-only_games

There's no doubt that system has games. It just happens to have games that aren't universally appealing to everyone. There happens to be a difference between 'having no gaemz' and having games that don't appeal to you. Heck, the total amount of the PS Vita's library in Japan beats out the total 3DS library by 65 games. (Region Free) The only systems that I don't see as having worthwhile games happens to currently be the Xbox One and PS4 as I'm only interested in Dead Rising 3 and Second Son.

That would be up to the player since no matter how praised a game has been by a reviewer it's still subjective. Even if a game has been panned by reviewers people will still find fun in it. I've provided a list though and if you don't mind putting each title into Metacritic there's an option for you.

It's an Ubisoft game, so it'll be sub $40 in a month or so.

Not your fault people like to cause drama. (Not excluding myself out of the equation) Since, this is coming from a guy who's purchased all handhelds/consoles from each company and will continue to do so. I never saw the point in limiting your gaming experience. I'm even willing to admit each company has it's pros and con's just like their product. But I'm also willing to come to terms with reality when it concerns a handheld or system.

The reality of things is that most people can't be a Daddy Warbucks like you and buy up everything. Wes regular type folk have to make choices and can only buy a limited amount of stuff. So it makes most sense for us to buy consoles we can be proud of with games that we can be proud of. Playstation Vita fails on both accounts.
