Buying Amazon Warehouse groceries?

    Just spotted this, had a look through and seem some things that interest me for really good prices, so what's the catch? Are all the packages ripped open and stuff like that? Or just nearing their sell-by dates?

    I buy a few Groceries things from Amazon when the offers are good,
    They have always been in perfect condition and well within date.
    Just keep an eye on the prices as they go up and down every day.
    Just my experience with them, i'd have no problem recommending people using it,

    And are they the warehouse ones from here? http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=amb_link_177743667_37?ie=UTF8&me=A2OAJ7377F756P&rh=i%3Amerchants%2Cn%3A344155031&pf_rd_m=A2OAJ7377F756P&pf_rd_s=left-0&pf_rd_r=0ZS7GQPZD6HXAXTTM3G7&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=444588547&pf_rd_i=304071031

    I have had a few bits from the warehouse section before but never any that said "open box" or "used", just the new stuff and it was fine with some great prices,
    The open box things are probably returns, i have not bought any of them but i would say someone just opened the box and decided they didn't want the item and returned it, most look like multi packs with only the outer packaging open so they should be fine, depends on the price ?
    What are you looking at and what are your worries..

    Ah, I thought all of the items in the Warehouse section were "open box". Guess I'll give it a go anyway, just some small cheap bits anyway.
