is Newegg a good place to buy from?

[globe111]

ordered about $4,000 of stuff from them in the past 4 months,

everything came earlier than expected,
everything was the way I expected it,
everything was working out of the box.

never had a bad part, so dont know how rma would of went.

but so far, I'm pleased.


my 2 rubles.

According to the Better Business Bureau it is satisfactory. www.bbb.com

Read the posts... didn't know Newegg has had some scams. Maybe they just made a mistake charging sales tax on a returned order.

The price we pay for capitalism... check out the many ratings on cnetpc.com, I think this company gets poorly manufactured but cheap parts because most users report more failures than usual. The amount of time it takes to settle problems with faulty products and miscommunications averages a 1(if you're lucky)-3 months. They must run the business from an apartment or something.

New Egg is great. I just ordered a new system from them and everything got here super fast. They do charge a bit much when shipping USPS. I ordered a $9 smart media card not to long ago and I was charged $20 for shipping. The actual postage was only $3.50. That kind of sucked, but I believe in playing by the rules.

Why didn't you ship it FedEx?

That is a nice <b><font color=green>Garbage Can</font color=green></b> you have there!

As a man who hates nearly all online PC hardware vendors here lately, NewEgg has proven excellent thus far. I do have one minor complaint: they need to get some more skilled programmers to calculate their shipping costs, as adding a $1 tupe of thermal paste should not cause a $5 increase in shipping, as it tends to do. If they can fix those bugs, their prices and service could finally put the frauds out there outta business.

Now if only someone would through CNETPC in freakin jail, then I couldn't ask for anything more.

I'm currently doing a RMA with newegg right now. They will receive my faulty processor on 6/17 (monday). Shipping takes 3 takes (arrives on the third day) for me, so can anyone here who's done an RMA with them estimate how long it will take?

Update: Got a replacement processor on Friday, 6/22! Fast!<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by cakecake on 06/22/02 03:19 AM.</EM></FONT></P>

LOL, I just worked my way thru the posts by 'ComputerGeek', it's a Friday at work, he provided good entertainment. I was about to comment about how he probably thinks the FBI and CIA are after him, but I think someone already glanced upon the conspriacy theories LOL.

Nothing to worry about. But you better hide.

new egg has ripped me off in the past but the last few things I got from them I had no problems with.

I am yet another user who will praise newegg.com. Although sometimes they are a bit pricey on the DDR RAM and a few other things, by maybe $5 or $10 more (UDS), they are great for most people in the US to order from. Not sure if other countries can order there. I have yet to experience any bad stuff from them.

I even had one of their guys call me on a weekend to let me know the motherboard i ordered was out of stock and if I wanted to get a different one. I went with a Socket A instead (a good thing too!) and a different CPU. Great people!

I just used newegg for the first time to purchase my new case.... everything went smooth and I had it in my hands 2 days later. I just ordered a mobo from them Wednesday and it looks like I just might get it Friday... excellent.

Only thing I noticed is that they have employees log on and review the products, posing as customers that have purchased the products.... you can tell because the same exact reviews will be on the whole list of a type of product and they will compliment newegg in the review too.... pretty cheesy... but not a big deal

 

[DaveP]

They also have some bad reviews.. I always buy from them or googlegear.com. But I shop around also.
