2020-10-15


In Amazon Prime Day 2020, you may have seen the term "Amazon Certified Frustration-Free Packaging" multiple times. For the same product, you might see two Amazon item listings, each with a different ASIN number.

For example, the hot deal Crucial MX500 1Tb SSD, we can currently see two different deals on Amazon (October 15, 2020). Although they are the same thing, the price of two deals is possible different.

1: Crucial MX500 1Tb SSD CT1000MX500SSD1

2: Crucial MX500 1Tb SSD CT1000MX500SSD1(Z)

(Note: If the above items have expired, you can find similar items on Amazon)

We can see that the information of the two products is basically the same, but there is an extra "(Z)" after the product model number of the second item. it means that the item is packaged in Amazon's FFP (Amazon Certified Frustration-Free Packaging).
