    There was only the one in "good" condition (scratches to stand and back of tv). Maybe more will go in later?

    Any way of setting up a camel * 3 alert for stuff just from the amazon warehouse? A lot of dodgy fake prices on the second hand market for that tv.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,247 ✭✭✭duffman13


    Just pulled the trigger on a 48" Panasonic for 200 quid, great second tv, that warehouse is a bit addictive.

    Is it more or less a sit and wait job till a tv pops up?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 126 ✭✭gymnipities


    So got my Samsung s6 today unlocked , was sold as like new condition. So had a look and the phone is brand new still in sealed box never opened and box in perfect condition. Delighted , have a few more things coming my way so hopefully as good.

    I wasn't as lucky. Ordered an s6 'like new' but it arrived today and has clearly been heavily used. Lots of small scratches on the screen but other parts, like the fingerprint scanner and flash, are scratched to bits. The back is fine, so it must have had a cover on for however many months it was being used.

    I'd get onto Amazon if they said it was like new then there should not be scratches all over the phone

    Agree, and no easy way to report dodgy sellers / listings..
    I've contacted them about it, and they say it will be passed on to the relevant people, for what it's worth..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,273 ✭✭✭UsedToWait


    Works OK for most part. Depends on what you want it for. Only downside to Android TV is the huge lack of apps.

    Can you not just download the apks and install them manually?

    Was that actually from Amazon? Amazon is rife with scammers and has been for a long time, always selling items for 50% retail - TVs, laptops, computers, components, etc.

    They're easy to spot, they ask you to contact them before making the purchase in the description of the item.

    Opinions on this laptop?

    Seems an absolute bargain for around 200 euro.

    Lots of things that look like scams on Amazon lately, when you click on description and it has an email address for you to contact the seller you know to avoid

    same as cronos is talking about

    Yes. Both low offers are scams. Avoid.

    How do you know that?

    Would I not be protected by amazons terms?

    They ask you to email for a reason.

    Place an order if you wish. It'll be cancelled by the seller because you didn't email if I was to guess.

    If you email, they'll try to get you to pay using a different method off-site, again, if I was to guess.

    You won't get either laptop for that price though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,511 ✭✭✭ElNino


    Any offers where they ask you to email them directly are scams. They will try and trick you into paying them directly instead of through Amazon and you will have no comeback when it goes wrong.

    I cant believe that people still come out with these "absolute bargain" comments at this stage in BA.

    The old adage..if its too good....etc... applies

    Received my microwave this evening from Amazon Warehouse.

    In perfect condition apart from the open door button was properly stuck in so the door would not close.
    Had to take the cover off to fix but it is now like new (after 10 mins of fiddling).

    Thanks OP, warehouse is very addictive!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,601 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Should have been watching this thread instead of the lacklustre deals in the Black Friday / Cyber Monday thread.

    Been keeping an eye on this for a while and picked it up for under €20.



    Retails at $100 from Brookstone in the US... great for the Christmas!

    PS - also picked these well-reviewed earphones for under €7.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,390 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    Just picked up an iphone 6s for 420 in the warehouse!

    Beware, you might receive earphones with some nasty surprises in the ear plugs...*vom*

    Its more common than you think.

    Depending when it was made, apple are fixing them if it had a habit of turning itself off, camera lag is a problem on some as well. Mine is going back to Apple in the next few days with both those faults.
    Check your warranty with Apple when it arrives.

    Ordered 3 things 'very good' items from warehouse this week, one was ok.

    The other two were a fiasco; one was ceramic, was unopened in original packaging but even the postman could hear the broken bits rattling around inside. The other was a very badly packed a karaoke machine obviously used, screws missing, microphones were in bits and the accessories were fecked into the box had rattled around and scratched everything. Don't think I'd bother again - prices are higher than ebay and on ebay you usually have pictures of the actual item adn the person packing it has a vested interest in it arriving in one piece. In 16 years buying on ebay, I've never received anything broken or not as described.
