I ordered a compactflash card from newegg wednesday night at about 7pm. I got it shipped regular mail, whatever the cheapest one was. Well, I came home today and it was already there! I've never had anything arrive so quickly before, and I've ordered quite a bit of stuff. I'm going to try to order from newegg whenever I can from now on. Not to mention it was pretty cheap ($30 for a 512mb cf).

I've also used newegg and their amazing, good prices and fast.

I haven't heard 1 complaint from anyone who has used them.

I've spent thousands of dollars there, they really are a great site to deal with. Especially when it comes to RMA's and the ease of setting one up. Its alll done online, you just type in the reason, they give you a number and you send it off to them. This can all be done in a matter of minutes.

Have ordered from them at least 20 times and have not had one problem with them.

I order ALL of my PC parts from them ( CD/DVD media as well )

Speaking of cheap & fast shipping, www.zappos.com has the best return policy...you have...365 days to do it (or longer, don't remember) and they have FREE shipping to you, FREE shipping back to them, and back to you...indefinetely until you get the pair you like...o.O!! Their stuff usually ships the next day and gets to your house in like 2-3 days and sometimes they upgrade it for free

. Seriously, it is the best shop on the internet although their prices are kinda high their service is awesome, so I think it's worth it.

Here's a complaint against newegg: I live a couple miles from them but they have no will call service. I had to ship a set of multimedia speakers back to them for RMA and they made me spend $35 to mail it to them...down the street. That really pissed me off.

IIRC that's a Federal offense.

That was on top of having to spend $35 to have them ship a faulty set of speakers to me in the first place...I mean...how was that my fault? $70!

Another small one from me... they recently had a "free shipping on everything" sale, and raised the price of all their PC cases and some of their other stuff to compensate. I lost a little respect for them after that, but will still be buying from 'em.

no complains from me. fast shipping, cheap prices, and good customer service.

but once in a while, i receive broken items and have to wait for a replacement. recently brought a 6800GT video card from them, and found a piece of circuit chip loose inside the packaging.

I recently ordered a DVD burner from them, and I got it in about 3 days with standard shipping. I also ordered an iRiver iMP-550 from them awhile back and that came in about 4 days. I'll definately be looking at them first whenever I'm going to order something online.
