Amazon has announced the return of its 10-day Second Chance Deal Days event, where shoppers can buy second-hand products with discounts of up to 50 per cent off. The online event runs from Tuesday, September 1, to Thursday, September 10, and features returned and refurbished items.
What's in the sale
The event, which first launched in 2025, covers technology, gaming, fitness, beauty, toys and home appliances. Brands include Apple, Google, Samsung, LEGO, Ninja, PlayStation and Xbox. Unlike a conventional Amazon sale, the products may not be brand new - some may have been previously returned, opened or used, while others have been professionally refurbished.
Amazon has reassured customers that returned products are inspected before being put back on sale. Items meeting its standards are tested, cleaned and repaired where necessary, with the price reflecting their condition.
How it works
Shoppers can find the products through Amazon's Second Chance section. Customers will be able to return second-hand purchases under Amazon's usual returns policy. Discounts will reach up to 50 per cent off the recommended retail price of the equivalent new item, although savings will vary according to condition.
For the first time, pre-owned bags and accessories from Amazon Luxury seller Luxclusif will also be included, with an additional 15 per cent discount during the event. Amazon currently lists more than 30 million second-hand products in the UK, with tens of thousands selected for the September promotion.
