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

Depends on the use case, but almost definitely yes. It'll be better at multitasking and overall run smoother. And at that price it's basically a perfect HTPC or media center in everything but form factor

Yes they do sell on ebay from around $40 to $60. BIN around those prices if you want it to sell it. There is one around $47 auction that is getting bids as of today. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Xbox-One-Kinect-2-0-Sensor-Only-Model-1520-will-be-200-new-on-July-15th-/261529033850?pt=US_Video_Game_Motion_Sensors_Cameras&hash=item3ce4585c7a Definitely a market for them, might not be huge but should sell if you give it time.

 
Ordered that Stick of Truth CE, came brand new. Everything sealed, box wasn't even damaged. Good stuff. Need to follow this thread more.

So I got my 320gb ps3 slim & move bundle from AWD today after just 2 days with free shipping which is awesome. Set up everything and obviously had some issues with HDMI flickering and for some reason my ps3 doesnt' like my HDMI 2 slot but all I had to do was switch it to HDMI 1 and I was good to go. The system came in 3 different boxes so I was confident it was well protected. It came with everything, the controller, micro usb cable, ps move camera & wand thingy and even the game. 

The system came in great shape, besides some marks here and there and some dust but I can easily wipe all that off so no permanent cosmetic damage. My only complaint would be that my controller's pause and select buttons aren't the greatest as you have to press them firmly otherwise it's hit and miss when you press them whether or not they'll respond. Overall I'm very happy with this product and this is my first deal from AWD on this thread so I just wanted to share my first time reactions. I know no one really cares but I just had to get this out somewhere lol.

Thanks to DS2U for listing this bundle it was well worth the money and I'll definitely stick around to try and get some more deals!

I bet you could open it up pretty easy, order the bad part off the internet, and replace it pretty easy if you don't want to splurge for a whole new controller. Otherwise you can use the Cartwheel app on Sunday or Monday to get 15% off one at Target and they should stack a PM on top of that if you can find someone they match selling it cheaper.

It wouldn't be worth the effort to me unless all I had to do upon opening it was clean it a little, but even then I'm just too lazy/paranoid with stuff like that to get around to it :p

I'm pretty much a noob when it comes to opening pretty much anything electrical so I would be afraid of breaking something accidentally lol. Is it pretty easy to clean one? If worst comes to worst I can always get a cheap DS3 on black friday or something.

 
Welp, the Wii U pro controller (VG) I ordered had a defective battery. Guess this'll be my first return: how much do they charge me for the return shipment?

That my friend, is the bonus of Amazon. If it's a problem with the product, they should pay for the return shipping.

 
ritchardf said:
and another bonus, you should have your money back in time to get in on the deal at best buy for $30
Click to expand...
Better yet if you ordered it with a credit card you can get a refund right away, even before you return the product. AWD might be hit and miss in terms of their products but no one i've ever experienced matches their return policy.

 
I ordered call of duty black ops harden edition. Read all the description. Said it was complete but downloadable stuff might have been used. Got package yesterday and all it had was regular case for the game.
Makes me worried about gta iv and batman collector editions I have coming.

Glad you got a good deal and you are more than welcome to share in your success as do others and I encourage it since it allows us to know which batch of deals are good and which ones to ignore for future since AWD is notorious for recirculating games and consoles that could have been bad and their may be a small chance one of us may end up with that bad egg.

See what I mean:

That has happened to someone else here before but hopefully it is an isolated incident and the rest of the CEs / LEs you ordered are intact. In case you are still interested while you return yours:

:ps3: Call of Duty: Black Ops Hardened Edition (G) $13.23 (LN) $14.88

DS2U wasn't the first, though most explicit, and is the only one who didn't get permanently ignored because he didn't spoil it intentionally like so many others did in straight deal threads.

Mine will be here Tuesday. Yeah these portable drives are small because they're 2.5" drives and USB powered.

Only complaint about mine (one I already have, haven't got this one yet) is that it will randomly kick off after being unused for so long, so I constantly have to unplug it and plug it back in to be recognized. My older one with "wall power" didn't do that ever. But not a big deal really, especially if you turn your PC off all the time, I just keep mine running most of the time.

Which is the case with all of these portable drives as a power saving feature.

Sorry bud for ruining it for you, I didn't realize until it was too late that you were still watching it. :oops: Spoiler proofed my original post even though it is too little too late for you.

It's fine, like I said you weren't the first. Others in threads that aren't permanent fixtures and filled with OT talk were dropping spoilers all day and doing it intentionally. That's why I ignored all of them and not you. So I had an idea already. Yours was all hidden in a normal post though so it snuck up on me. ;)

That was nothing compared to the guy who made the WC thread and decided it would be a good idea at times to put spoilers in the title when the game hadn't even friggin finished.
 
That LEGO Undercover Wii U game can drop down to the $20-25 range from the $30-35 range any time it wants. That game is never cheap/on sale.
 
EldritchOnRye said:
Nope, that's why you should have gotten it from the recent B2G1 sale on WiiU games at Target. I paid like $18 for it.

Almost responded with the same, since I did that too (I believe I owe you some thanks for outlining how it would work, so thanks). Almost all the Lego games drop pretty quickly, but Undercover is an anomoly, since it isn't cross-platform and doesn't tie in with another property.

No shit dude, I don't even check the WWE thread until I watched all the shows I am interested in for the week.

The worst was we used to watch hockey on ESPN2 most every night. Back then they showed a game almost every night, and they played them a few hours later, 2 am or so, and we would always watch the game after we got out of work, around 2 am. Luckily once we were watching a good game, and the score went across the bottom line thing...ruined the whole damn game. After that, we would put something over that part of the TV to not ruin the game.

Apparently I should have been paying more attention. Like all games though it has to drop eventually.
 
Welp, I was sorting through some piles of games and getting rid of some boxes tonight. Found a box of Skylanders I had ordered and completely forgotten about. Was only like three months ago.
