Amazon is the largest Internet-based retailer in the United States. Founded in 1994 by Jeff Bezos, Amazon was originally named "Cadabra" - and made its online debut in 1995. Amazon began as an online bookstore and within its first two months in business, had made sells in all fifty states and 45 countries around the world. (In case you're wondering, the first book ever sold on Amazon.com was Fluid Concepts and Creative Analogies by Douglas Hofstadte.) Amazon has since expanded its product line to include electronics, appliances, household goods, apparel, TV shows, Amazon echo, Amazon video and more. Amazon.com has come a long way from their early days when employees would ring a bell inside the building to celebrate making a sale.
No matter what you purchase, we recommend that you checkout with Amazon Prime to get free 2-day shipping on everything. If you're thinking of getting Amazon Prime, then you should know all the benefits it includes - especially for $99 per year! The original purpose of Amazon Prime was to provide free 2-day shipping on all orders with no minimum purchase. Without physical store locations, offering free shipping was effective in making their vast inventory conveniently available to everyone. Over time, Amazon added more perks and features to Prime giving their customers more for their money.
What are Amazon Warehouse Deals? Amazon Warehouse Deals are discount offers on used, returned or refurbished items that are not able to be sold as "New", but are still in great, usable condition. The Amazon Warehouse return policy is the same as the regular store return policy, in that buyers have 30 days from the date of purchase to return a Warehouse item for an exchange or refund. You can simply request the return online in your orders page, print return labels and someone will pick it up, it's that convenient. You can visit the Amazon website for more information about how Amazon Warehouse deals work.
