Is it just me or is there something wrong with Newegg?

Sorry if this seems like a stupid post but is anyone else having problems loading Newegg.com this cold Xmas day?

I can't even get it to load anything. Mozilla just sites there saying its loading the page but nothing comes up. I thought at first there site was down but I never get a timed out error. I thought maybe my ISP was having some routing problems.

No, there is a post in Off Topic about this.

Newegg is having some problems today.

This sucks, I want to order my new system parts but unfortunately the bulk of them are coming from Newegg. Guess I get to play the waiting game...Sits while money burns hole in pocket

I thought they just shut everything down over the holidays so they could meet their two day shipping requirements.

I might note in passing that on Pricewatch's OWN user reviews of Newegg, they are at 77% satisfaction rating. If you click on the reviews (last column in anything sold by Newegg) there are some angry people.
Rather surprising.

You can find the places that are highly regarded by friends, family, or forum users but on reseller ratings or pricewatch they have a botched up review %. There are some real idiots that give reviews on there, actually read the reviews don't just go by the %. There are exceptions though, I mean some places really are bad...

There are people that have legitimate complaints but there are people that can't spell and will post a review: "NEWEGG SUCKS I INSTALLED A VIDEEO CARD I GOT FROM THERE AND I SPILLED MY BEER ON IT AND NOW THEY WON'T REPLACE IT. DO NAWT DO BUSSINESS WITH THIS PLACE"


I mean I just see ridiculous reviews like that all the time. If you want to see what a really piss poor place is like go to yahoo and type in ADOSYSTEM reseller ratings, you can tell that is a bad place. When people threaten physical attacks, lawsuits, FBI reports, Postal inspectors, BBB, etc... stay FAR AWAY
