# Amazon sells used or pre-owned products alongside brand new gear in its marketplace.

*business · news · 2026-04-07 · BGR*

## Key points

- Amazon Resale, formerly Amazon Warehouse, sells used items directly with specific condition labels.
- Amazon's 'used—like new' items may have minor box damage but are in perfect working condition.
- Amazon does not separate reviews for used and new items, making buyer feedback harder to assess.
- Returned Amazon items do not go to Amazon Resale but are handled elsewhere.
- Amazon Resale items lack manufacturer warranties but are covered by Amazon's 30-day return policy.

**Companies:** Amazon
**Countries:** United States
