r/Newegg

Any idea or ETA on when shipping will return to the middle east? kuwait in particular

I got back in touch with Newegg, and this time we were able to work things out in a way that worked well for both sides. The issue has been resolved, so there’s no need for me to pursue this any further.

I’ve also made a few adjustments to the original post after the resolution, mainly to remove some unnecessary details for privacy and other concerns.

Looking back, I think my friend’s recommendation was the right one after all. I appreciate Newegg taking the time to work with me and help bring this matter to a good resolution.

And thank you everyone for your thoughtful comments and advice. I really appreciate it.

Looking at the bundle options and appreciate that they give us choices and let us pick the parts we want, but why is everything all MSI? Pick your motherboard but only MSI, Case is only MSI, monitor, peripherals, everything you can bundle is MSI only unless MSI doesn't make it, like RAM or SSD.

I enjoy MSI stuff, my current board and GPU are MSI, but it's a bit crazy that, at least right now, the only option you have with these bundles is MSI. Between the limited options at Microcenter and Newegg deciding what we can and can't bundle, it's almost not worth the savings in some cases.

Yo guys, first time building a PC from scratch here (Ryzen 7 7700X + RTX 5070), and I'm trying to figure out the smartest way to actually buy this stuff without getting screwed.

Basically the GPU, RAM, and SSD I want seem to be in stock way more consistently on Newegg (and sometimes cheaper too), while the mobo, CPU, PSU, and AIO I picked out are easier to find on Amazon. So my plan right now is:

- *Newegg:* GPU, RAM, SSD

- *Amazon:* Mobo, CPU, PSU, AIO

Is splitting it up like this actually a problem, or am I overthinking it? Couple things I'm wondering:

1. Any downside to buying from two different sites instead of just doing everything on one? Like does it mess with RMAs or anything if something's DOA?

2. How do you guys weed out sketchy third-party sellers, especially for stuff like GPUs and PSUs where a fake/damaged unit could actually wreck other parts?

3. Does it even matter warranty-wise if I buy from Newegg vs Amazon, or does that stuff just go through the manufacturer anyway regardless of where you bought it?

Don't wanna get halfway through this build and realize I messed something up. Any advice appreciated, thanks 🙏

I just recently bought a zalman cubix g in white and it arrived with both the glass panels in shambles. I sent out a replacement request but they want me to ship it back. Should I remove the broken glass and ship it without it or put the broken glass in a safe container and ship it with the case?

Is my first time buying here and I bought a Corsair Ram some days ago still processing but the money still in my Bank is it normal? The order is confirmed and everyhting was accepted.
