It comes down to this: UPS sucks, and newegg doubly so for switching to them.

I thought they offered a choice of shippers.

Trick is to move closer. I get everything that comes from Newegg in CA the next day.

there has always been sales tax, you've just been avoiding it.

Bought all my computer components from them. Got it by 9am on the third day. Not bad considering I am at least a 20 hr drive from the closet warehouse

I never have any problems with Newegg. It takes 2 days to get to my house once they ship what ever I order.

Newegg rocks. They got my new processor to me in under 24 hours from clicking commit with GROUND shipping this week. I've ordered thousands already and will order thousands more...

They ROCK.

You must be hated or something :p

I routinely order as late as 2PM CST (noon PST) and I get the goods the next morning (FedEx).

fast shipping, poor shipping. My last order was for 3 things, all ordered at the same time. 2 of the boxes were tiny. Yet, I was charged shipping on all three things and FedEx delivered 3 boxes. I will go out on a limb and say all 3 would have fit in 1 oversized shoebox. But I had to pay over 11 bucks to ship what basically came out to weight about 1 lb.

did get the shipment next day which is a +++ no combined shipping --- it evens out. I wanna try ZZF. Would go with Mwave more but I don't like finding stuff on their web site.

They're still fast here. Ordered 5 DVD drives, and got them two days later. That's with the cheap UPS shipping as well.

My latest Newegg order was a pleasent surprise.. I ordered parts for a super-cheap A64 system for a friend & it all arrived in 2 box's in 2 days via 3-day UPS.. even more impressive considering it was UPS, nothing was damaged!

Wow! Ours is 7.25% and I thought that was high.

Ours went up from 6.5% to 7% in Florida.

We're here and ready to help. Let us know what the exact problem is and maybe we can offer a resolution or explination. If you want, send us a PM with your Sales Order Number (SO#), so that we can investigate in more detail.

We hope to hear from you soon.

wow, last time I talked to your support about an issue I got some cranky bitch on the phone, glad things have changed. You replaced the parts but you weren't nice about it.
