flipper812002 is on a distinguished road
Its not that i dont like newegg just some of what they do needs to be addressed and changed or made known to a person during checkout and the option given if you want to change to ground shipping or not. They just do it without a by your leave at all. If i didnt like newegg i wouldnt of already placed another order tonight to finish up my daughters computer but i have so it is something that does need to change. I prefer to know exactly what im paying for and if something or anything at all changes during checkout i want to be fully informed and given an option to leave it as they changed it or even if it raises the cost to leave it AS I WANT IT. Seems to me that should be a consumer right.

I chose 3 day shipping on the 19th of december for a reason i wanted it before christmas. I also wanted to take advantage of free shipping up to 20. for an order as i ordered almost a whole computer at one time. So by splitting the order into 2 or 3 of them i paid very little shipping.

Would i of bought it right now if they did not offer free shipping and before christmas delivery, probably not, my thought was to save my daughter some little amount of money and myself. When i first placed the order i talked to jason and he honestly tried and according to ups tracking all was going to be here by friday. So i checked that thursday night said was on track so i pulled my motherboard out and put in my daughters case along with hte ram and processor which i just bought it all within the last 5 months at newegg a amd 62x2 4400 sckt 939. I got a 5200 amd dual core from the egg just a day before and the motherboard so i installed it all in my puter all i needed was the ram.
So the monitor and printer and a couple drives showed up but the package with the ram and win xp and video card and hard drive didnt make it. Was shipped ground so that on friday ups as busy as they are b4 christmas delayed mine for the more important garanteed items mine was ground so is how they work.

Why i picked 3 day garanteed so it was garanteed. Is it wrong to want to know what is happening every step of the way when you are the one paying for it even though it was free shipping i still could of made smaller orders and picked next day air on it all or 2nd day air but i chose to just do 3 day garanteed. Any way enough ranting i hope that this helps to change it but not up to me. All i can say is thank god i talked my daughter out of ordering a digital camera and all right now. So i can wait till it changes.
