So I was told that Newegg.ca doesn't price match... Anyone know why? I thought Newegg does price matching.

Ya... Got a blob answer from the CSR. Something about marketing.. I asked on RFD and it seems like they don't price match. Sucks.

If newegg price matched they'd have to pad all of their prices to make up for the local uncertainty in revenue. To cater to the sharks they'd have to screw the majority.
I prefer consistently low prices. It's just more efficient.

Newegg already has plenty of turnover and dissatisfied former workers who don't like pay there. It's on glassdoor.

Newegg.ca is rarely the best pricing. NCIX.ca or Canadacomputers.com are often better, with both also having retail stores (though sparse). Both pricematch too.

Newegg.ca sucks.

Exactly. I support them politely ignoring the price match grifters.

Pretty much why I was asking if they price match... NCIX's prices are way better. Memory Express has the best price matching policy though.
