Why don't you go back to your old ways? Whiners don't get much sympathy around here especially when you chum the water like you're doing now.

Of all your post you are telling me that you never posted a rant? Your calling me a whiner and chuming because I not part of this forums clique, that's fine it's been like that since the BBS days. But rest of the clique are chuming as much as you think I am.

Not really sure what this has to do with Newegg. Blame the shipping company not the store you bought it from.....

As others have said, business days - as far as FedEx, UPS, and DHL go, do not include Saturday or Sunday, or the day the item is shipped.

QFT^^^ You ship on a Monday and if it's 5 business days, it's going to get there next Monday. It's always been that way and it still is.

I used to get my stuff from Newegg in two days to the bayarea from LA. Just like clockwork. But since they have this DHL/USPS transfers thing going on, I usually get it the 4th or 5th business day.

With all this new inter-company shipping with Newegg, Amazon (with UPS and USPS), etc, things are horribly slow. I've had UPS just move stuff to as far as Oakland and it sat from Friday to Monday doing squat. On Monday they transferred it to USPS and I received it Tuesday. Four days to go 20 miles. That's why it's still free shipping.

If ya wants it faster, ya hasta pay more.

I did pay for more.. I paid 12.06 for FedEX and the ram did arrive on time. I purchased a CPU/MOBO combo earlier that day which was shipped DHL which I was tracking..... I get the Dumb Ass award for the week. I haven't been home in two weeks, so I haven't been through the stack of mail/packages at the house, ask the wife if the memory for her computer came it and I got not yet. I jumped the gun.



Let the bashing begin. Now I deserve the name calling..

Nah, you don't deserve name calling. But you need to apologize to Newegg. j/k

I just renewed my amazon prime membership. I am an impatient sob just like yourself and I found myself over paying for stuff at B&M stores just so I could have it same day. I figured I can wait a day or two so I am trying amazon again and just got me a year of prime.

Prime is amazing. No tax, free 2 day, and $4 upgrade to next day.

Actually I am.. I don't know if it will go far but I will.. I'm pretty honest person. They sent me two ASUS Crosshair extreme about a month ago. I only paid for one. I had to return it my conscience wouldn't allow me to keep it. I had a friend dying to take it off my hands.. I just couldn't do it.

Newegg itself has gone downhill in terms of customer service and UPS just sucks rocks. I haven't gotten a 3-day ship from UPS in months. It's always 4-5 days and I'm not talking week ends.

I wish I could get FedEX shipping from Newegg, but they don't have that option. I've never had a package arrive late from FedEx.

Newegg gets everything to me in 1-2 days unless it's Eggsaver, then it's 1-2 weeks.

Prime is even better for college students/professors because it's free with a .edu email address.

Wow, I didn't know that. Can someone remind me of that school that gives out .edu addresses to anyone? It was posted in a thread here a while back, and I didn't have a use for it at the time.

This is an exploit and it's not about having just a edu address, but being a student or professor.

It's the same as stealing.

I hope the mods give you some time out to think about this while you are away from work.

I would find the thread with the link to the school, (I think it was somewhere in australia or something) but I wouldn't want to upset you.

I can probably just have my alumni organization set me up with an edu account if I really wanted to "exploit" it, and I'm sure employees at colleges have an edu account too. There are obviously many gray areas with who can use an edu account for a benefit, but if taking the high road makes you feel special, so be it, I'll enjoy my discounts.

I can't complain about them, ordered a dvd burner on Tuesday morning w/ 3 day shipping and it arrived the next day (yesterday) without a hitch (NJ to CT). Did you use 'eggsaver'?
