My First Blog Post

Not everyone knows about the savings that can be had by searching Amazon's Warehouse Deals for the items you need. I always check to see if what I am looking for is available through AWD before committing to buying it from Amazon as a regular "New" item. Amazon does a good job of describing what condition the item is in as it compares to a NEW item. AWD contains new returned items as well as gently used or cosmetically damaged items. The pricing is discounted more for items with some cosmetic damage than for those in "Like New" condition. You can find almost any category of items you are looking for in AWD. These items are even eligible with Prime shipping for Amazon Prime members.

Item condition descriptions straight from AWD's website:

Like new:

A "like new" item sold on Amazon Warehouse Deals is in perfect condition, but due to the condition of the packaging, it does not meet Amazon.com standards for new product. Returned items with minor packaging defects are classified as "like new."

Very good:

If an item has cosmetic damage or blemishes, shows slight signs of use, has minor accessories missing, or the packaging has been replaced to better protect the item, we will assign the condition of "very good."

Good:

If an item has large cosmetic damage or blemishes and/or missing accessories, we will assign the condition of "good." It's possible the packaging has been replaced to better protect the item.

Acceptable:

If an item shows signs of wear including scratches, dents, and other aesthetic problems, we will assign the condition of "acceptable." It's possible the packaging has been replaced to better protect the item, manuals may be missing, and the item may contain third-party attachments.
