I've taken the plunge on occasion to save money on Amazon's warehouse deals. Generally I've had good luck. The best deal was over this summer buying a home treadmill. All sorts of exercise equipment has been backordered for months due to Covid. The model I wanted was then $350 and backordered 6 weeks. I took a chance on a warehouse deal with torn up packaging for $215 - immediate shipping. The outer corrugated box was torn up some but the unit inside was new and undamaged.
Another time I bought an Arris SB6183 cable modem for $30, advertised as open box. Normal price was $70. It came in the original box with undisturbed original packaging inside. It's been up and running 24/7 for a few years now.
Is this typical? Or do most people regret such purchases?
