During summer break, I have been researching to build a new computer for my school in the coming Fall 2012. I have ordered from newegg for my previous built about 4 years ago. so im thinking cool, i'll order from them again. I worked the whole summer just to save up for this computer. I finally placed my orders on August 9, 2012 with 10 items. Below is my order list:

when my ordered arrived, i was so excited about this build. i opened the box, however, TWO items were missing, my evga 670gtx ftw $407 and my i7 3770k $350. That's almost $800. Next day I called and filed a claim with Newegg. I received an email from Newegg saying that it'll 7 to 10 business days to process my claim.
It's been three weeks since i heard from them. So i called Newegg today and they told to just wait. I asked them who is in charge of claims. The lady told me The Claims Department. Well how do i get in contact with them? You CAN't because they are in China. ????WTF?????

here is an email of my claim:

I'm an architecture student at ELAC. Now that school started, I don't have a decent computer to work on my design projects. All i have are these computer parts lying around in a box. I asked Newegg for a refund so i can buy my parts at frys.
Will Newegg try to screw me $800? I have been a loyal costumer to Newegg for many years.
After this experience with newegg. i will definitely not order from them again and will advise my friends to beware.

AND still waiting to hear from Newegg...

 
did you get a tracking number for your packages? sometimes items ship from different sources. packages from electronics vendors sometimes get stolen so check with ups as well.

newegg might have sent the package out and it could have been lost or stolen in transport.

not saying this is the case, but you should definitely pursue this as a possible option.

Newegg just approved my claim. I'm just so glad that I didn't lose my hard earn money. Newegg really own up to it on their end. Now, i have confidence in them once more.
