I had an issue with a damaged packaged, which really was not properly padded inside, and I had to schedule a call back for 32 minutes later just to report the issue. When someone did finally call me back they told me they would send a replacement. The price has gone up on the item so now they want me to send the damaged memory back to them at my cost for a refund. So of course to finally get my memory I would have to re-purchase at the higher price. This is really bad business. With a retailer like Amazon for instance, this process would have taken 5 minutes and a return shipping label would have been provided at no cost to me. I used to use Newegg.com exclusively for new computer builds but will no longer.
Hi Jason,
I'm saddened to hear about this experience as you shouldn't have to jump through hoops to get a functioning replacement item when the original was defective. I'd love to look into your situation further, please send us an e-mail to wecare@newegg.com with your order number so that we can work with you on ensuring you're getting your working item, a proper refund if needed as well as a price match if needed.
Thank you,
Dakota
