Half the price?? I got half an item!

I was happy to find a brand new KB MS|NATURAL KEYBOARD ELITE for only $17.00! Until it arrived without the USB adapter!

I even called Microsoft and gave them the serial number on the product, they said, it's SUPPOSED come with an adapter! And what's with the box say, "To be sold with new PC only"???
Of course arguing with New Egg got me no where. Never again!

So he point being???????



Those adapters are less than 5 dollars, I think you still got a hell of an deal. I'd still be satified if it was me in your shoes. at least they didnt' give you 1/2 a keyboard. So im not sure why the complaint. I have purchased products before and them missing the electrical adapters and such, those are way more expensive but just missing an adapter. I wouldn't fret over it. But hey that is me.

I think the point is he is unhappy because he ordered a keyboard and it didn't come with a USB adapter. That's what I got from it anyway. Besides the product link that they provide for this item does state PS/2 or USB so I think it's a fair gripe.

"To be sold with a new PC only" means it was intended as an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part. It means the Reseller gets a good buy on the items in bulk without retail packaging. In some cases the manufacturer requires the reseller to only sell the items with hardware or a fully configured PC.
