Newegg sent me an opened motherboard two weeks ago when I had ordered a "retail".

I sent it back to them and they are sending me a replacement "unopened" motherboard. However I had to return it ground and it is out for delivery today. I called to see if they would go ahead and ship my replacement and I was told they will ship it 3 to 5 days after the original gets to them. This is so annoying as I want to build my box and everything else is here waiting to go..

Wish they would just cross ship it..Process a refund for the original when they get it and bill me for a new one.. Just get it here.

They have everybody involved in trying to make up a believable excuse for the PayPal fiasco. There was nobody left to negotiate.

Should have spoken with another CS rep & not taken no for an answer ... unfortunately they do have some people working for them these days that don't care much about providing good customer service, but I always get taken care of.

I'm speaking to someone now (4th person today) who is helping me. She is refunding the previous order. Had me place a new order and is upgrading the shipping to next day. Hopefully it will be here Monday.

I'd be more inclined to say they just simply couldn't keep up.

Grow a pair, march your ass in the bedroom 30 minutes after she goes to bed and take what you want. Treat her like a piece of meat, pound that tang into quivering submission. If you got the cajones be vocal about it as well.

Then go sleep on the couch, but only if you were arguing before she went to bed.

Think I'm kidding give it a shot, you'll get more ass over the next couple of weeks than you have in the past year.

Read your question and went back into my "storage" room, i.e. junk room, and looked at a bunch of old motherboard boxes from various manufacturers, including Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, Intel (and going way back to an Asus CUSL2 box), and none had external seals except an Intel board I bought from a B&M store.....the rest were all from places like Newegg, ZZF, etc., and none were externally sealed.

I think the external seal on the one Intel box was from the store, most likely.

As for sealed plastic bags inside the box......only sealed plastic bags I've ever seen contained things like cables, connectors, etc. The mb themselves are only in anti-static bags....never plastic bags. And the anti-static bags can be sealed with anything from a "Danger Will Robinson....static sensitive junk inside" stickers to simple scotch tape. A couple weren't even sealed at all.
