Lol, Im in the same boat as you guys. The funny part is people will catch on from our mistakes/weren't able to order right away, and will learn to not buy from newegg. I'm just glad Frys can price match and amazon's prices are close as well.
FUCK NEWEGG.
GO AMAZON, or other stores that price match!
I picked up the 840 Pro 256GB. Now I have an 830 256GB that's arriving in the mail today I don't need. Talk about bad timing.

All of the sudden? LOL wake up, if all of these people have been saying fuck newegg there is a reason. This thread alone is proof, the sale started this morning then by the end of the day the coupon is gone, because of reaching a coupon limit... wtf is that?Ha, did you also bite on that $150 830 256GB deal from TigerDirect not long ago?
Also, what's wrong with Newegg again? They've always been awesome for me. So has Amazon, but I really don't get the supposed hate towards Newegg all of a sudden. Is it just because of this whole new Amazon campaign that suddenly we're supposed to not like Newegg? Because that's stupid. Both Newegg and Amazon are top notch companies with excellent customer service.
If you want the 250gb, Tiger still has it for $180 I think... still have to pay shipping but together I think it's roughly the same cost as the newegg promo+free shipping cost

I'm going to admit that I saw the sale this morning when I was getting ready for work, and didn't bite, my fault but the Frys close to me didn't have any in stock so I didn't get it.
I'll continue to wait, been waiting already so checking SD and CL everyday has been worth it for me already.
Also congrats to the people that got in on the deal, but sitting back and saying umad is funny as hell, this drive will go down in price (no shit). The even funnier part is when the price goes LOWER than what was originally posted (at $192.xx), those that got in on the deal are going to call newegg and ask if they can be paid the difference. WOW
I have never done that and never will, dont want to deal with customer support!! Good luck!
This was pretty lame. I was about to order one for a family member's computer, and had it in my cart ready to go and everything. A few minutes on the phone with the said family member to confirm and afterward the code was no longer valid.
Are we at the point now where coupons come out and are only good for a few hours?
I ended up ordering the drive on Amazon. If Newegg did this as a PR stunt, it failed, hard.
Who is being over dramatic? You came in here asking why all the newegg hate when the answer is right in front of you. Also Newegg is anti [H], or doesn't want to deal with them, so once again wake up!Dude, the deal is dead. It's not the end of the world, as that happens with every site. They even let you know the deal is dead. Would you rather they just submit your order and then a day later refund your money and cancel your order without even telling you? Because that's exactly what TigerDirect does. But please, don't let me stop you from being over-dramatic.
Ha, did you also bite on that $150 830 256GB deal from TigerDirect not long ago?

Everyone on the "fuck newegg" band wagon sounds mad haha

AFAIK there isn't a single site that's 100% reliable today... If anyone knows of a site that ships fast, doesnt BS sales, and packs properly, please let me know
I haven't had to use Amazon CS, but I hear it's better than Newegg's also.
I agree that people tend to be over-dramatic regarding Newegg. F*CK Newegg because they ran through their allotment of Samsung discount $$? That is a limit put on by Samsung, and you should blame the person who posted it on SlickDeals. You missed it and too bad. But grow up and stop whining! And get ready and move faster the next time the thing you want is on sale.
I have no idea why everyone is so negative about Newegg.
I have no idea why everyone is so negative about Newegg. I have ONLY had good experiences with the company, and I buy a ton of goods from them.
I guess you missed the part where they continued to advertise the Samsung promo on their front page for an hour or more after the deal was dead
If they had good CS still, and didnt screw Kyle and [H]ardOCP over, they might have a better rep around here.
Pick your poison.
Newegg BS's with promos (and cuts funding for [H]
TigerDirect has sub-par shipping (really TD? 3x two-TB HDDs in 1 box with a single bag of air?)
Amazon sometimes takes upto a week to ship
eBay is best deal but it's a grab-bag and you end up having to get a PayPal Buyer Protection refund around 10% of the time on high-end items...

Even with tax, I find myself paying the additional 3.99 to get SAME DAY delivery for items in my local warehouse.
Just two days ago, I needed a cheap power supply to replace one in a tertiary system (wife's PC). Got on the egg, used [n]ewzon, ordered from azmazon at 11:15 AM and got it at 6:00 PM that SAME evening. Even with tax and the shipping price, the PSU was only 6 bucks more than the Egg price. Same day delivery is worth it.
BB.
I am sure Newegg's promotions are mainly automated, or maybe they had an agreement with Samsung to promote the deal for a certain amount of time in order to get the 20% off discount money? You just don't know why the offer was promoted after it sold out. I don't think they promoted it for long, and I feel confident it wasn't a wicked scheme... There are MANY reasonable explanations that don't involve Newegg being evil or underhanded.
There are so many conspiracy theorists on this board. Relax, be happy!
Huh? Amazon.com is one of the best merchants ever, it is close to perfect like others mentioned. With prime I usually get next day delivery even if I don't ask for it. I'd say 90% of the time if I place a timely order, I get it the next day and I only select two day shipping at checkout - which is free. Additionally, their returns are TRULY no hassle. They will even pay for return shipping on defective items. Heck, these days if I place a 2nd day order on Friday a lot of times i'll get it delivered on saturday by FedEx for free. Amazon.com is awesome.
You're not using 3rd party sellers are you? You should only buy from amazon and not amazon market place sellers. Amazon LLC is certainly one of the best places to buy from, and their CS is amazingly good. They really do put newegg to shame.
If the item is sold by amazon itself then it will never take a week to ship. Usually it is shipped the same day for me and usually delivered a day early. I dont know how they do it, but they do. The reasons for the delay in your case could be, the item wasn't in stock when you ordered, you ordered from third party. If the item is in stock and sold by amazon it ships quickly and I have bought a lot of shit on amazon.
I have no idea. What I know is I ordered some text books for a college course, chose expidited shipping (the fist place I ordered my books from sent the wrong edition) and I was over a week into the course before I got it (roughly two weeks from clicking "place order" to it arriving at my door)
