How to find the best deals on Amazon Resale

This week, I saved $300 on a monitor. How? I bought a used one in very good condition instead of a new one.
If you shop on Amazon, there’s a secret section you need to know about: Amazon Resale (formerly Amazon Warehouse). Think of it as Amazon’s clearance rack, but better. It’s where returned, overstocked or slightly used products go to get deeply discounted.
Don’t worry, these aren’t haunted typewriters or coffee makers that brew regret. They’re inspected by Amazon and labeled with conditions. Yes, most of the time you still get Prime shipping and easy returns.
Know the labels
On the product pages, you’ll see these various conditions.
- Used – Like New: Nearly perfect. Packaging may be damaged or missing, but the item works like it just came off the shelf.
- Used – Very Good: Item has minor cosmetic blemishes but is fully functional. It might be missing small parts like a manual or original packaging.
- Used – Good: Noticeable signs of use, scratches or wear, but the product works properly.
- Used – Acceptable: It’s functional but well-worn. Great if you care more about performance than looks.
- Used – As Is: Still works, but might be missing some key parts. Check the pics to see the condition before you decide to buy.
