I had always assumed that they out-sourced their warehousing.

It is interesting. It really makes me appreciate buying from them even more. I like how they explained the Fedex vs. UPS issue as well.Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice. -
I had wondered about that too.Originally posted by Helevitia

Anadtech is running really slow for me.
The pages wouldn't load at first and I had to refresh quite often.
What's the explanation of the Fedex vs. UPS issue? I'm curious.P.S. You've been Spanked!Comment

They said FedEx dramatically raised the price on the 2 (3?) day sevice NewEgg defaulted to.
FedEx said they were losing money on it.Chuck

Which is why UPS is the default now. So if you still want Fedex 3-day, you will have to pay for it. Personally, I'd rather pay extra money and get the package through Fedex than get anything from UPS (Ultimate Package Smashers).Originally posted by cjolleyLadies and gentlemen, take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice.Comment

The only thing I hate about newegg is that they have a Warehouse in Jersey now, and I get hit up for Sales tax
Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them?Comment

I have a new HD for Becky's laptop from NewEgg out for delivery by UPS even as we speak.

For Shame, GT98, for shame...
Technically, even in those states where they don't charge you sales tax, you are obligated to pay the tax to your state of residence...
