My best guess is they merged so Newegg could have a shipping location on the East Coast. Didn't Chief Value used to list their address as New Jersey?

Newegg bought New Jersey, and it came along with the package.

another way to screw the unsuspecting customer no doubt! :|

don't get me wrong...I like them, but why a 2nd site?!

www.newegg.com/Oldversion makes 2.5

Never used Chief. Their site and selection sux but they apparently get it done with a 9.47 rating over the last 6 months.

I don't get it

You see, when you reach a certain % of market share, you can't efficiently increase it. By starting a shell company with another name, you can take up market share with that.

you're right...newegg has screwed over people before, and it has been documented. I still use them, but I have read the bad stories....

so, they know they can't get those customers back. That's why they created a new company so that others will buy from them without knowing they're buying from them....genius! ethically, sux though :|
