good detective work. Newegg is out then.



One incident withiut much details does not put NewEgg on my list of bad
vendors

I've never had the slightest problem with them,.as a matter of fact I
recvently bought a great printer from them at a good price
and with only a $2 shipping charge

Kind of hard to beat




Also watch out, now that PC chips are starting to "compress" in
performance advantage (meaning, for example, Intel i3 chips are
roughly the same as i5 and i7 in performance, for most users) the scam
where on eBay you get a vendor offering a i7 chip at a much higher
price than an i3, and people rushing to buy it since it's a highe
number.

PC Chips?

That and emachines are two vendors I'll stay away from !

I trust New Egg, but I have had to return a few things over the years.
They have always been good to me. I am going to keep using them.
