Sadly, mistakes happen. Newegg will bend over backwards getting you a working
part as fast as they can. They're the best at that. I order from them constantly,
as my bills show.

Right now I'm feeling like the one bent over. I would like to call them tomorrow
and have them overnight a new board for tuesday and I will overnight this
board back to them tomorrow so they will have it tuesday. I don't think
they will do this. Their site says once they receive my board they will
ship a new one in 2 to 3 days. That puts me down for a week instead of 1
day.

I also wanted to return this board for refund DOA and buy a new one overnighted
but they won't do this either.

Do you know some other way to get me up on tuesday? Thanks

I've never done this exactly, but I bet if you call them and explain the situation
they will overnight you a new board on Monday. Then might charge you for
it and refund for the first board after they get the return (when is irritating,
but not unreasonable). But the big thing is to call them and explain the
situation, they really are about as good as it gets in the retail computer
racket. You should try getting similar service from Tiger Direct or Fry's.

Ring then and explain the situation, and in my experience they'll make things
happen.

Yes, this is how they can get a new board immediatly out to John.
Basically he will buy it twice but a refund is issued when he returns
the faulty board. He does not have to overnight the return, IIRC.

Cool, I'll let you know how it goes. I don't mind buying it 3 times if I
can get it! hehe
Thanks for the tips.

Degenerate computer folks like Deej and I swear by Newegg. Everyone makes
mistakes, good retailers fix things quickly and with the least amount of
hassle to the customer. That's Newegg for sure.

Yep, I've had nothing but good experiences with them. Fast, cheap,
exceptionally reasonable on shipping.
