11 Best Websites for Discount Electronics

The best websites for discount electronics in 2026 are Amazon Resale for inspected open-box returns, Best Buy's open-box and clearance outlet, Newegg and Micro Center for PC parts, B&H's Deal Zone, Woot for daily deals, and Swappa, Back Market, eBay and OfferUp for used and refurbished devices. Add cash back from Rakuten and a promo code, and you can pay well under retail for a laptop, phone or console. Below is what each site is best for and how to buy safely, checked in November 2026.

1. Amazon Resale

Amazon Resale, formerly Warehouse Deals, sells customer returns, open-box items and warehouse-damaged products at a discount. Amazon inspects and grades each item for functionality, cosmetic damage, accessories and packaging, and the orders get Amazon's usual fulfillment, customer service and returns. Read the condition note carefully: "Used, Like New" and "Used, Acceptable" can be very different. Check the DealHack Amazon page for current promotions.

2. eBay

eBay has the widest choice of used and discontinued electronics, with auctions and Buy It Now listings. Filter by condition (new, open box, refurbished, used), pick sellers with strong feedback and a stated return policy, and compare the total with shipping before you bid. For phones, ask for the IMEI or serial number and check that the device is not reported lost or stolen.

3. Newegg

Newegg is built around PC components, monitors and gaming hardware. During its "Black November" event in 2026 it is posting new daily doorbuster deals at 9 a.m. PT, and some listings show the price after a mail-in or rebate-card offer, so check whether the advertised price depends on a rebate you have to claim. Compare marketplace sellers with items sold by Newegg itself before you buy.

4. Best Buy open-box and clearance

Best Buy's outlet groups open-box, refurbished and clearance items, which is often the cheapest way to buy a TV or laptop from a big-box store. Note that Best Buy's price match guarantee excludes open-box, refurbished and clearance items, so the outlet price is the price. For new items, Best Buy will match its own lower price during the return period, and holiday purchases from October 30 to December 31 can be matched through January 15. See the DealHack Best Buy page for current offers.

5. Rakuten

Rakuten is not a store but a cashback site: start there, click through to an electronics retailer, and a share of what you spend comes back as cash back. Rates change often, so compare them before a big purchase. Rakuten's help center warns that using a coupon code not listed on Rakuten may void the cash back, so check which is worth more.

6. B&H Photo Video

B&H is best known for cameras and audio but also sells laptops, monitors and accessories. Its Deal Zone lists daily and weekly deals, and you can sign up for Deal Zone alerts so you do not have to check every day.

7. Micro Center

Micro Center is a PC-builder favorite with physical stores in a limited number of US cities. If you live near one, check its open-box section and in-store deals on CPUs, motherboards and other parts before buying online.

What happened to TigerDirect?

TigerDirect, once a common stop for computer parts and refurbished PCs, no longer runs its online store: tigerdirect.com now redirects to a closing notice. For the same kinds of deals, use Newegg, Micro Center or Back Market.

8. Woot

Woot, the daily deals site founded in 2004 and now part of Amazon, posts multiple short-term deals every day. Watch for a Woot-Off, a run of rapid-fire deals that lasts until stock sells out. You sign in and pay with your Amazon account through Amazon Pay.

9. Swappa

Swappa is a marketplace for used phones, tablets, laptops and consoles where staff review listings before they go live. Its rule is "no junk": devices must be fully working. Swappa charges a 3% fee to the buyer and to the seller, which is lower than many marketplaces.

10. OfferUp

OfferUp is a local buy-and-sell app, useful for monitors, consoles and TVs that are expensive to ship. Check the seller's profile and ratings, test the device before you pay, and meet in a public place.

11. Back Market

Back Market sells refurbished phones, tablets, laptops and consoles from independent refurbishers. Compare the condition grade and warranty terms on each listing, and price the same model on Swappa and Amazon Resale before you buy.

How to pay less at any of these sites

• Check for a promo code first. Look up the store on DealHack before you pay, then add cash back if the portal allows the code.
• Track the price. Price trackers such as Keepa and Google price tracking show whether a sale price is a real low.
• Buy last year's model. When a new phone, laptop or console launches, the previous model often drops in price, and the difference in features may not matter to you.
• Ask about student and military pricing. Several manufacturers' own stores, including Microsoft's, offer education and military discounts on select devices.
• Read the return terms on open-box and refurbished items. Return windows and warranties vary by seller and condition.
