D@mn capitalist economy..

Why can't everything be more expensive then my credit limit? Surely I would be able to buy an $8,000 floppy drive.

I hope Newegg will not be another buy.com or outpost


buy.com in the past has all kinds of coupon like officedepot/staple/officemax

outpost.com in the past provides free overnight shipping with no minimum order

if u want a killer deal on a cdrw... u have to hit hot deals. a lot of them involve waiting for rebates. if rebates dun rub u the right way... then fs/ft is ok sometimes. at least u can haggle there :D

I just made my first purchase from newegg today, ordered the parts for my new Athlon XP system...I ordered it this morning, it already shipped :) I'm satisfied so far with their service, and the prices are great.
