MSI Radeon RX 570 ARMOR MK2 8G OC 8GB $55+tax after RB

[cheepskate]

Newegg has THE deal! It starts with a sale $174.99 with a $20 rebate. The kicker is the $99 "AMD gift" also gets applied! Sale = $175 - $99 = $74 - $20 rebate = $54
Less than 18 hours left. Oh yeah...MSI also throwing in 2 free games.

I thought the same thing when i bought my 570,they subtract the 99 dollars but you will get a second invoice charging you 99 dollars for the free gift.Just check your credit card and you will see they charged the 175

the AMD free gift is just the two games.. how do you subtract it from the price of the card

Thanks for the heads up. Indeed, checking the account, I've been charged the amount without the discount. I have contacted NE providing a screen shot of the final purchase price, honestly not expecting a satisfactory resolution but worth an email complaint. I've just about stopped shopping at NE altogether because of glitches like this as well as allowing Chinese sellers to sell cheap knockoffs. I can usually find a vendor that will price match and sometimes save me tax. This is the final screen that showed when I clicked the submit button. So to answer killster, see below!

Yeah, that's glitched. Sounds like they didn't add the $99.99 "value" games pack to your invoice, but somehow left the discount for same on there.

Your experience is not typical, that's a pricing mistake.

He is dead right. Trust me, you'll see a second charge on your credit card. The same thing happened to my buddy and after getting all excited, he saw the second charge later on.

 

[Ryland]

Cant you take that up with your CC company since you didnt authorize the second charge?

 

[killster1]

the amd gift is not 99$ off tho.. its 2 games so i dont get how you can subtract it from the price. i tried to buy and it didnt say anything like that for me.

Contacting the card issuer is my next step. I have screen shots of the final payment page clearly showing the agreed upon amount. I'm still waiting on a response from Newegg before contacting them. I can say with 100% confidence... this WILL be my last purchase from Newegg. They are moving the direction of TigerDirect and shady ways. Amazon, Fries, etc can compete. BTW, I work security for a large bank, CC fraud, Newegg has a problem.
