Amazon has announced the rebranding of its popular Amazon Warehouse to Amazon Resale. The rebranding aims to provide customers with an innovative way to save on a wide range of products. The new feature allows shoppers to purchase used, pre-owned, and open-box items at discounted prices while still enjoying the convenience and customer service Amazon is known for.
What is Amazon Resale?
Amazon Resale, formerly Amazon Warehouse, is a marketplace where customers can find great discounts on quality used, pre-owned, and open-box products. With categories ranging from electronics like computers and tablets to home essentials like furniture and kitchen appliances, Amazon Resale offers a wide selection to meet various needs. On average, customers saved more than 25% on these items last year.
"Customers turn to Amazon for value and low prices, which is why we’re constantly innovating to find new ways to offer products at a variety of price points. That’s where Amazon Resale comes in," Amazon stated in its official announcement.
Why Shop Pre-Owned Items?
Shopping on Amazon Resale offers more than just savings. By purchasing pre-owned items, customers contribute to a circular economy that extends the life of products. Amazon is committed to minimizing waste and giving returned items a second life through resale, repairs, or donations. In 2023, Amazon donated or helped independent sellers donate more than 160 million products worldwide.
How to Find Amazon Resale Discounts
There are two main ways to discover Amazon Resale products. Customers can browse the Amazon Resale homepage by category or search for specific items. Alternatively, they can check the regular product page of an item, where they may find a section labeled "Save with Used" or "Buy Used" if a resale version is available. Pricing will vary based on the condition of the product.

How Does Amazon Resale Evaluate Product Conditions?
Before any item is listed on Amazon Resale, it undergoes a comprehensive inspection to ensure its quality and functionality. Our team thoroughly tests each product, particularly electronic items, which are powered on, tested, and factory reset as part of the evaluation process. After this quality check, the item is categorized into one of four conditions: "Like New," "Very Good," "Good," or "Acceptable."
Used - Like New: The item is in perfect working condition, with all essential accessories included. The packaging may show signs of damage.
Used - Very Good: The item functions flawlessly and has seen minimal use. It may have minor cosmetic imperfections and could arrive in damaged or repackaged packaging. Some non-essential accessories might be missing, as noted in the item description.
Used - Good: The item is fully functional but may exhibit moderate wear, including minor cosmetic damage like small scratches. It may come in damaged or repackaged packaging and could be missing valuable accessories, which must be purchased separately if required.
Used - Acceptable: The item serves its primary function but shows clear signs of usage, such as scratches, dents, or worn edges. It may arrive in damaged or repackaged packaging and could be missing critical accessories or parts, which must be acquired separately to use the product.
Each listing includes a detailed description of the item’s condition, allowing customers to make informed purchasing decisions.
Return Policy
Amazon’s return policy covers resale purchases. However, due to each item's unique nature, replacements may not always be available in the exact same condition. Customers can expect the same reliable service and convenience from Amazon’s return process.
In conclusion, Amazon Resale is a win-win for both customers and sellers. For customers, it provides an opportunity to access high-quality products at significantly reduced prices while enjoying the reliability of Amazon's delivery, customer service, and return policies. For sellers, it offers a platform to give returned or gently used items a second life, helping to reduce waste and reach a broader audience. By choosing Amazon Resale, customers save money and support sustainable shopping practices, making it a valuable addition to Amazon’s offerings.
