Does NewEgg suck eggs (fertilized or not)?

I placed an order for a GF2Pro and RAM from NewEgg on 5/29. The order status is still stuck on "being prepared in the Warehouse" 5 days later. Anyone knows if this vendor is reliable? Maybe I'm just impatient.

Speaking of fertilized eggs, has anyone ever eaten the Asian delicacy of duck eggs that have an almost fully-developed baby duck (inside the egg)? I'm adventurous when it comes to cuisine, but could not stomach this item.

I don't think their website reflects where the order is in the process very well.

OK--I called NewEgg and spoke to a rather curt customer service rep. She looked up my order and does not know why it's delayed and has not been prepped. The rep will "look into it." Also, she said the shipping will be upgraded. I guess it will now be FedEx minus-1 day shipping ;)

The rep also confirmed that my credit card has been charged. I was wishing NewEgg would not do that until the order shipped, but oh well. Will give update if I hear back from the vendor.

Have a friend that has ordered 2 Kyro II vid cards from them.

So far he's 1-2. The second was just ordered last Friday. :)

Update:
My NewEgg order was shipped 6 days after I placed the order. The video card (MSI GF2 Pro) and RAM arrived after another 2 days. They were in perfect condition and work great. I am happy with NewEgg except for

1. Unexplained delay in shipping
2. Charged my credit card long before order was shipped

Happy shopping!

Newegg is a great vendor. My #1 buying place for computer components online.

Don't know what the problem was with your order. I have never had any kind of problem.

1YellowPeril, SendTrash is refering to eggs fertilixed or not. balut is not just a fertilixed egg, but one ready to hatch that is eaten. It's Philipines soul food.
