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

Yeah, I saw that G for $38 and almost got it. However, I think I'd rather pay the $10 and get the free game. If the code was guaranteed inside and unused, I'd have bought it 10 minutes ago.

 
I keep checking, but I honestly don't even know what I'm willing to buy. GCU has made games hard to take as a good deal, for starters. I could look for another Wii U or One controller, but I don't need them. I don't want to spend money on a console after all the money spent on my golf clubs and Target flips this past month.

I'm just going to keep watching and complaining. That seems good for now.

 
New stuff added, so far not seeing any deals though. Will keep checking

OVERPRICED RESTOCK HAS ARRIVEDZ!!!

Kinda thought about NFS: Rivals on The Bone for $27, just because I could get it for about $5 after Amazon credit, then flip it to Best Buy for almost what I paid--meaning I could move undesirable Amazon credit to Best Buy credit.

 
Sony just sent me a Destiny Pre Alpha beta code, will be playing Destiny in 35 min once the download finishes, check ur emails!

wooo hoo! I just got my MK8 at the door, case is messed up a little but not major. The code was showing when I opened it as the case was missing shrink wrap. But I tested the code and it worked!! So stoked! MK8 and Zelda HD for the used price of one  :D/

 
Cancelled a VG roku 3 for $40, in case anyone's looking for one.

So far I feel like the odd one out with my MK8's lack of code :c

Btw is it just me or does mobile update faster then the actual website? Because last time I was on my iPhone and I saw the consoles come got one, then still saw ghost listings. On my PC I didn't even see that, I feel like my internet is behind like 5 years :/

I noticed that too. I don't know what gives but yeah the deals popping up on the website on my pc compared to mobile lagged comparatively. I remember a fellow cag mentioning how they were able to snag a cheap console on a vita of all devices while browsing, before debating if he wanted it for a minute, and meanwhile we were still looking at the ghost listing on the pc.

 
My (G) Xbone came in today. Wasn't a dinger but headset and hdmi cable were sealed, console and controller in A+ condition. Do these systems typically come with a play and charge kit? Battery pack and USB cable were in the box.
 
Hmm looks like the prices today stink. Feel like I should ask anyways though, anyone see any non-kinect xbox ones today? Seeing that one yesterday for 276 or whatever got me wanting one!!
 
Found it it was actually
Sony gold wireless headset acceptable
May be missing packaging manual cover art and dlc may be used

Hmm hourly is good was 63.35
