Well I guess I shouldn't have posted this warning. If all of you are getting your stuff and special perks too, you beat me. I still haven't even heard from Newegg. When I go to their site and look up my order information there is no indication that they are processing or anything, in spite of the promise of their telephone customer service rep.

Well that explains why the last couple orders I've put in were behind. Usually newegg gets the stuff out next day or that day, last one it took like 3 days.

No big deal.

Well fook. Actually, this won't affect my order right anyway. Especially since I haven't ordered the stuff yet. So by the time I get around to it they should have it restocked.

Well!! I finally got my cpu today. It arrived FEDEX Express so they got it here as fast as they could. I still wish they had put a notice prominently on their site. If they had one I didn't see it.

I placed an order Nov.2 (Tuesday) and it shipped out friday.. I should have my stuff by wednesday judging by the tracking. I did find it odd that it took 3 days to ship until I came across this thread. I just wish they would of e-mailed me about the delay. I didnt call and bitch or anything because newegg has been great with all my past orders.

I love NewEgg and they really have taken care of me so far (they should, i've spent more than $10,000 in the past 18 months :p) but I hate their script that bumps the price once an item gets popular. Evil you NewEgg! :evil:

LOL, the cheap silver pen in the brown cardboard sleeve doesn't work. The same type of pens (silver or red) in the "gift box" work great. I've gotten dozens of them and they follow this pattern.

I am still waiting for the FX-55 retail be in stock at Newegg.
The FX-55 and Half Life 2 combo looks pretty enticing at $890, if I could order it.

$890 o_O

just get a 3500 90nm part and wait till the FX comes down in price. You'll save like $500? :)
