This is an intersting idea. I know Fry's has had certain deals that I wished I could have gotten in on. How do you plan on handling items that are purchased and then the buyer finds out they are defective? I do most of my online computer shopping through NewEgg. I have been very happy with them. Their customer service is top notch.

MMMM.. What happened if someone ordered a part and it got "Lost in Transport" or even just never hear from the person again????

Be a sure good way to get the part that u did want...


(not saying that this is what u do) But be careful on how you present yourself to others... This is borderline of a scam..

Its a great idea theoretically!! But being able to hassle a major parts supplier with a Address and business Number and so on, makes u feel a lil safer buying online...

Good Luck

Hey, I've got an idea. If anybody needs anything from Newegg, let me know. I'll get it for you, and ship it to you. All you have to pay me is cost + tax + shipping + say $10 per item. What a deal!

i would send all reciepts with the produst so if there are no problems .you have proof of purchase. this way you can send back .

thats why they make insurance on shipping .

just trying to help out people that don't have a fry's near them . if you checked my ratting on things i have sold in the past you will see i am a good trader . i understand peoples fears . but a online vendor can burn you just as easy as any . Fry's has super deals on some items that you can't beat ANYWHERE even online . those are the items i am mainly talking about not the run of the mill stuff . last saturday they had an xp 2000 and a motherboard combo , ks75a pro for 69.99. thats not a bad price ffor the cpu alone . so it is like a motherboard for free . you can't get that price anywhere online for new stuff . but hey i was trying to do a good thing guess thats my bad .

Ever heard of the word "jest". I was totally joking, I can't believe anyone would want to do this....

Um... no thanks. $12 per item? That's a ripoff. By the time you add that, most "deals" aren't deals anymore. Maybe if you'd say $2 per item up to a maximum of $25 per trip people would take your offer seriously.

Why on earth would I want to pay $52 + tax ($2.40) + shipping ($5) for a CD burner when I can get one at NewEgg any day of the week for just $49 shipped?

Yeah, I was just kidding Omardeth. That's a nice gesture, but I don't think you'll find many takers.
