Amazon launches Second Chance Deal Days — Sept 3–9, 2025

Amazon has announced its first-ever Second Chance Deal Days, a global event focused on returned, used and refurbished items. Running from September 3–9, 2025, the sale offers discounts of up to 50% off on a wide range of categories, including personal tech, gaming, fitness, home & kitchen, and toys.

Why it matters

The initiative promotes sustainable shopping by extending product lifecycles and reducing waste. Amazon says items sold during the event are inspected, tested and cleaned under its Returns and Renewed programs, and are supported by Amazon’s customer-service and return policies.

Availability

Official announcements have appeared for several markets (including the UK and Germany). For US shoppers, similar deals can be found through Amazon Renewed, which lists certified refurbished and professionally inspected products.

Tips for shoppers

• Check the product condition and any seller guarantees before buying.
• Look for Amazon Renewed and seller ratings to ensure quality.
• Compare prices — some items may have limited stock during the event.
