Is new egg back to being a good site to buy from? Felt like they got pretty crappy for awhile
Just built a server and a PC and they were fine. I had a couple of delivery issues and they sent replacements no questions asked. Even ended up with an extra 4 TB HDD because UPS fucked up, they sent me another, then UPS came by with the original.
Only issue now is a backordered SSD that they keep pushing the release date back on, but $180 for a 2TB nvme pcie Gen5 x4 ssd is worth the wait, I think.
I still order from them although it’s definitely gotten worse and the website feels like It was designed exclusively by the marketing team and high-up executives instead of web engineers.
Honestly, I typically gravitate towards Amazon over Newegg these days, but Newegg does have a lot more options for computer hardware, so I still order from them. I just ordered an ITX motherboard and SFX power supply from newegg yesterday actually because amazom didn’t have the products I wanted.
