Summary: I have bought probably 40 items over the last 5 years from Newegg. I won't even consider anywhere else except Frys or Best Buy if they have a super great deal on occasion. Newegg is the one online site I totally trust. |

| | Beware -- they will charge you for multiple ship without permission |
| Review By: jcmartin on Aug. 25, 2008 |
Summary: NewEgg will charge you for shipping multiple times by splitting up the order without your permission. They will charge you $10 to ship a $2 cable and then basically fight you with the credit card company. And you can forget about help from their customer service on this issue. |

Summary: Experience similiar to one dated January 08. I returned one item for exchange and one for refund in the same package following the instructions to indicate two rma's in package. After receiving 2 emails indicating both items received and sent to department for inspection, they claimed the refund item was not received. CR wanted me to put in insurance claim with USPS that product was lost in transit. So now I should commit mail fraud by claiming the package that was delivered was not??? No refund and since first contact with newegg they haven't bothered to reply to email. |

Summary: I shop here all the time. every single time it's the same thing-get the order in 2 days after ordering. It's amazing and i've never had any problems, must have bought 30+ things so far. Think I had to return something once long ago, don't recall any problems.

| | Newegg Rocks |
| Review By: docdave on Apr. 23, 2008 |
Summary: Newegg has always had the best selection and price for many years now with faultless customer service and support. I've had a few items over the years DOA and they have ALWAYS made things right quickly. I even had an incident where the rebate listed was not the correct one for the item shown, and they refunded that money too. And fast to boot. Shipping for me is scary fast to Santa Barbara, CA. Most of the time if I order an item in the afternoon, it's there next morning. And that's with free shipping! I don't know why these other guys have listed these problems, maybe just 'tards!! I don't think you can go wrong with Newegg. |

Summary: If you know what you want and don't need help, save some money. My order was shipped the next day and arrived as fast as any other ups ground package. Shipping was half of ANY other online store that had the same thing. Also the item cost less. Never tried to return anything but that part sounds dismal from others here. |

| | RMA not refunded, product not sent |
| Review By: whiteka on Jan. 30, 2008 |
Summary: I purchased three items from NewEgg: a video card and two memory upgrade kits.
(1) video card (item#14-130-286) VGA EVGA 512-P2-N773-AR 8600GTS 512
(2) 1Gx2 memory (item#20-148-076) MEM 1Gx2|CRUCIA BL2KIT12864AL804
The video card was DOA on arrival. The memory was not the correct product for my computer (my error). I requested a replacement RMA for the video card, which was granted. I requested a refund RMA for the memory, which was granted (minus a restocking fee).
I sent all items to NewEgg, which they received (and for which they signed). They did send me a new video card, which works.
They did not refund the cost of the memory. After two weeks, they claimed that I only sent back one of the memory kits. A few days later, they claimed that I did not send back either kit. They now refuse to send me the memory, or to provide any refund.
I now do not have either the merchandise or the money.
The prices at NewEgg are quite reasonable. Be aware that their handling of returned items or refunds is unacceptable.
I will not order from NewEgg again. |

Summary: I order a new hard drive on 1/1/08. My credit card was
immediately charged, and I immedately received an
order confirmation. On 1/8/08 I was notified that the product
I ordered was not in stock, and they would credit my
account in the next day or two. I LiveChat'ed to try
to purchase a replacement for the item I ordered, asking
them to verify inventory prior to ordering another item,
then getting charged. The salesperson was no help, only
telling me "it happens". By the way, my credit card
still has not been credited. Don't Shop newegg!!!!!!!!! |

| | Worst Customer Service Ever |
| Review By: mricks01 on Dec. 21, 2007 |
Summary: Pros - good selection of merchandise at seemingly good prices
Cons - Quite slow to ship, and incredibly poor and inefficient customer service both online and on the phone.
I ordered a wireless access point at a very good price and received an invoice for that. After a longer time than usual for this kind of transaction, I received a package that contained a PCI graphics card instead of what I ordered. After sending an E-mail and receiving no response after a day or so, I phoned and told them the issue. The guy put me on hold, and then the call ended. I called again, and had to explain to an entirely different person the same problem. They E-mailed me a return authorization, and then separately a UPS label in order to send it back. I did so, and when they finally received it, I got five E-mails within the space of two minutes, the first three of which seemed to say that I had sent the video card back for repair, the fourth finally getting it right, and the last one saying what I had ordered was unavailable and they were going to refund my money. The next day I get an invoice showing the refund, but they did not refund the shipping!!!
BOTTOM LINE - TWO WEEKS + WASTED, AND $6.14 OUT OF POCKET, AND STILL NO ACCESS POINT.
Shop there at your own risk. I had no problem the first time I dealt with them. |

| | Memory RMA kills relationship with customer |
| Review By: Mason on May. 10, 2007 |
Summary: In brief:
- a) purchased premium memory in January; memory carries a lifetime manufacturer's warranty
- b) received memory and used until May
- c) memory started exhibiting failures under testing
- d) returned memory following RMA procedure
- e) was told that the replacement item was out of stock, I could accept another brand replacement, or a refund of the "market value" of the memory
- f) "market value" of the memory is 40% of the original purchase price
- g) "market value" of the memory is $40 less than the selling price (at newegg) of the alternate brand, offered item
- h) I pointed out that the RMA'd item was identical to 2 pieces of the "single stick" of same brand of memory that they had in stock. (RMA'd memory was a "kit" consisting of two memory sticks)
- i) was told that they could not replace 1 item with 2
- j) I told the customer service rep to return the RMA'd memory to me and that I would pursue the warranty through the manufacturer (Crucial)
- k) was told that the memory was already returned to the manufacturer
Clearly, newegg will receive a replacement or a refund from Crucial
for MY memory that they RMA'd to Crucial. In the meantime,
they want to use me to offload some inventory of the 2nd tier brand.
I've been a customer of Newegg since 2001.
This is my first RMA experience with Newegg.
I will not be a future customer of Newegg.

| Review By: Raptorwashere on Nov. 26, 2006 |
Summary: For 3 days I was on/off the phone with newegg trying to get my order placed. Newegg kept telling me my order went through, yet i kept getting emails from newegg that it didnt go through. When checkin my order status on neweggs site, it also said that it didn't go through. finnaly after one of the newegg reps told me to try this, i canceled the order and placed it again. the same story repeated itself. Reluctandly, after 2 or 3 days of battle. I canceled the order and orederd it somewhere else where it went through instantly. Later on I got an eamil from newegg that my order went through!? now my bank is locked up, overdrawn and of course with a $50 overdraft fee (chase). I couldn't buy lunch, I got stuck in a cab with no money. I had to borrow money from my boss on my seconed day on the job (very uncomfortable) and newegg wants to charge me to ship it back??!!
I am very dissapointed in newegg who is soppose to have great costumer service everyone is raving about. |

| Review By: andrewma on Nov. 6, 2006 |
Summary: After thousands spent over many years, I've come to rely on newegg to deliver and deliver consistently at great prices. Not always the lowest, but very low still. And rather than incur multiple shipping charges from choosing the lowest prices of everyone out there, one stop shopping at Newegg has been phenomenal.
I've had some issue with broken items and I've always gotten fixes or returns to my satisfaction.
Everyone must realize that mistakes happen and that the consumer is not always right. being polite and fair will usually result in a fair shake for the consumer also.

| Review By: bdc on Sep. 16, 2006 |
Summary: I'm surprised Newegg has this many bad reviews here. I've been shopping with them for a while now and have always been satisfied. They've never got a item wrong,they always ship the item quickly,and their prices are great! Sure,they don't always have the lowest price,but it usually isn't far. I did save about $70 buying a video card from Newegg,with free shipping too. I have ordered many things from them and they've always been right on. They even sent me some gifts at their expense for me doing business with them. I know that people will have bad experiences with every store,no matter how popular it is. Sometimes you do get a bad experience,but don't let that automatically decide that this store is horrible. Give it another shot and see what happpens then. Anyway,I give Newegg 5 eggs out of 5! |

| Review By: jordan on Sep. 3, 2006 |
Summary: NewEgg is the best for the type of products they offer. Customer Service: Excellent!!! Had ordered a combo package, they forgot to ship part of the combo, sent an email and they sent my missing item no questions asked. In all the years of ordering from NewEgg this is the one time they made a MINOR mistake. Order Processing: Usually same day or next day. Unlike some other companies wich take two or more days to process orders. Pricing: NewEgg is either the best or very competitive. Instant savings on items, Rebates, Combo deals, & Weekend sales or specials from time to time often with free shipping. Shipping: Fast!!! Usually 3 days exactly or the most I have had is 4. Shipping cost is reasonable or FREE! Packaging: Excellent! Especially on fragile items such as hard drives, memory, & optical drives wich come wrapped in protective bubble wrap. Monitor's & PC Case's seem to be in the packaging from the manufacture always. |

| Review By: C_G_K on Sep. 2, 2006 |
Summary: I have ordered dozens and dozens of items worth thousands of dollars and have NEVER had any problems whatsoever. In my opinion, they are the best e-tailer you will ever find. I do not think that the opinions expressed about newegg on this website are really representative of the average experiences people are having when using newegg. I have always found their product descriptions to be very exhaustive and accurate, unlike almost all other online retailers. They do have a restocking fee for returns, so you better be sure that what you are ordering is the correct item, and some items are warrantied by the manufacturers only (but this is clearly stated in the product description). Order with confidence, they are, in my opinion and experience, the best. |

| Review By: alane1313 on Aug. 3, 2006 |
Summary: 25 July 2006:
In the past, my experience with newegg has been wonderful. However, this transaction has been a poor experience.
I placed an order for an item on 23 July 2006 with my Visa card. At the end I was confronted with the "verified by visa" logo. I did not have the password, and was informed that my order could not be processed and my cart was emptied. I located the password and reentered the order. Later I was sent confirmation for two orders.
I understand that the purpose of "verified by visa" is to prevent fraud. I fail to see how effective this is if newegg processes the transaction BEFORE redirecting to "verified by visa".
To be fair, when I realized what was occurring I sent a latenight email to newegg customer service. An hour later I had a reply to simply refuse the package. I was not home when UPS arrived and dropped off identical packages at my apartment complex office.
I would be willing to give newegg the benefit of the doubt. They are not being malicious, just inept. This very same problem was brought to their attention over 6 months ago with a fleeting promise to "perform the appropriate investigation to determine why these orders were processed." (See Fragtopia's review of 8 January 2006)
Obviously it has not. Again newegg has provided me with wonderful service in the past. However, there are simply too many alternatives than to be subjected to this sort of unforgivable mistake.
Update: 3 August 2006.
Although newegg billed my credit card without my authorization, they steadfastly refuse to refund the money without the item they shipped IN ERROR being returned beforehand.
In other words, They charged my card without my knowledge and will "hold" my money for several days while I am subjected to their Byzantine RMA procedure. (At least they were "decent" enough to forgive the 15% restocking fee).
I was willing to do this, if they would credit the $15 promised shipping to my account to pay for returning the item to them. They refuse, stating they "are unable to issue return shipping credit in advance before we received the return."
I was also informed, "the "Verified by Visa" program is generated by Visa. They randomly require customers to put in the security number in order to prevent against fraud. If you have any concerns, please contact Visa for more information. Next time, if the "Verify by Visa" program pops up again, please simply disregard it and continue to check out."
By their own admission they circumvent the very thing that is being promoted to prevent fraud. THEY PROCESS THE ORDER BEFORE VERIFIED BY VISA!
How is this a deterrent to fraud? Read Fragtopia's comment from 8 January 2006, where they were billed THREE times for the same item!
They have promised a $50 credit on future orders, but I fail to see how it would be any less elusive than this fiasco.
My recommendation is to steer clear of any retailer that operates in this manner. At the very least if you insist on using newegg, absolutely do not use a Visa card and check your statements diligently. |

| | Bad - EGG |
| Review By: foobar21 on Dec. 5, 2005 |
Summary: NewEgg shipped me the wrong item. Either their website is wrong or the lowly stock clerk is blind. They are unwilling or unable to exchange for the correct item. NewEgg's Customer Rep suggested I RMA it (15% restocking fee waived) and attempt to re-purchase item again on the off-chance they'll send me the correct item this time. NewEgg refused to pay any shipping costs to return item or on the repurchased item. If by chance they ship the correct item next time I will have paid shipping charges 3-times, if they ship the wrong item AGAIN, I'll have paid shipping 4-times. Ugh! Never again, never again,... |

| Review By: Anonymous Coward on May. 30, 2005 |
Summary: I have shopped at Newegg several times, and have never had a problem with any of the items I ordered. Newegg has an incredibly large inventory, and sometimes they have the same item listed several times, so you have to be sure that you are getting what you want. Very helpful product review database. Great prices. Probably some of the best shipping available from a large online retailer.
And of all the stores on the net, Newegg actually has one of the best reputations for customer service and return policies. I will continue to shop at Newegg in the future. |

| Review By: Socomon on Apr. 7, 2005 |
Summary: I had a bad experience with Newegg. They sent me a product that was different from what was advertised. They told me to send it back. Two weeks later they tell me that it is really the same product afterall but the manufucturer changed the model number, so they are sending me the same one once again. They promised to send the replacement overnight and didn't. The bottom line is that 3 weeks later and I still don't have my product and I am out $25.00 in return shipping costs that have promised to refund but so far haven't. I would stay away from them! |

Summary: These people will say want they will but I have dealt with Newegg for years now. They have the best prices consitantly. The best products always. They always have the latest and greatest Items. It seems that some people just simply do not understand the system.
Possibly by trying to get over on the system, then are upset when they cant. Or possibly lack positive communication skills.
If i ever have a problem it has been solved with a simple email.

Summary: I have ordered many many things from Newegg. Their customer service is excellent. I usually receive the item 2 days after the order, and most of their items are free shipping. I have sent a few items back because they were bad (no fault of Newegg) and the RMA process was very quick and easy. I have ordered alot of stuff online and newegg is by far the best merchant I have ever purchased from. Most of their items have reviews on them that are very helpful, too. Their prices are usually the best on the net. |

| Review By: NewEgg knows Who on Apr. 2, 2004 |
Summary: Purchased a Sony TR3AP3 as specifically listed on NewEggs website ~apparently incorrect... I cancelled and called immediately and they insisted it was a TR3AP3.... wanted to reorder but got a huge run-a-round as they rapidly changed the words on the site to reflect a lesser unit... They would not honor their mistake. I have the initial order number and a copy of the receipt to prove it.
Any other Respectable Internet or brick and mortar business would have honored the price. I feel I was scammed out of the purchase by NewEggs CS Dept... The complaints department responded with a duh thanks, could care less attitude. NewEggs trustworthiness is in a steep decline and I certainly would never purchase anything from a dishonest company who won't honor what is advertised on their website. Buyer beware...
