    i've to do a bit of research, but i think it may be too good a deal to send it back - used price was £720, so with the discount was £504. For a hp gaming laptop, that seems great value.

    One of the few advantages of buying from Amazon Warehouse is free returns for any reason.

    With an item like you laptop I would ensure that you are getting exactly what you paid for. It wouldn't be that unusual for components to be swapped out and returned, so straight away I'd check the memory and hard drive is what it should be.

    At a much lower level of product I bought a set of sockets from Amazon Warehouse where all the brand names ones had been replaced with cheap Chinese substitutes.

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    Just wondering, did you have to actually press Buy Now for the 30% to be applied [I'm looking at an ASUS TUF laptop ("Used - Acceptable")]?

    not sure if you're still looking, but this ASUS TUF is eligible for the discount - used very good

    Is it a free return though? Do Amazon actually pay postage?

    Yes....You print off a label which states free postage and bring to post office....they scan and give you receipt.

    Is there a certain time of day that stock tends to get added to the warehouse or is it luck of the draw?

    Luck of the draw, I though logging on at midnight would mean changes but quickly realised not to be. Just seem to add stuff randomly throughout the day so unless someone knows differently it's the luck of the draw!

    Also items reduce over time so they're added close to retail price, depending on condition obviously, and will slowly decrease the longer they go unbought.

    Oh really?
    Was looking at something but by the time I checked the reviews on it it was gone - was a good price with the reduction but still ended up getting 23% off for Cyber Monday for it brand new (considering what it was probably the best route)

    Prices are high before the 30%, nothing like previous sales

    Can you search for a specific item in the Warehouse Department ?

    I can only see options to search by category which is time consuming.

    If I search from the search tab on the main site page will it bring up warehouse products as well?

    I've noticed that the warehouse deals don't show up on some products.

    There is an open box Oral B 2500 toothbrush deal in the warehouse which doesn't show up under open box like new when searching the product.

    It will show up here if you search for it. However, it will only show up from searching on this different page if it's eligible for the 30% off.
