+1 on Newegg customer service. I had an issue where I paid $3 for rush processing (I'm impatient) but the item did not ship for another 24hrs. I called thinking I was going to have to be a dick about it to get the refund on the rush, but the lady was real nice, and explained some BS that it was not their fault, but UPS's. Now here I was, about to launch into a tirade about how it didn't matter when she said, "But we'll credit you back the rush fee plus a dollar (???) for the trouble."Newegg is not just the best online retailer of electronics I've dealt with, they are the best business, period, I've dealt with. I love them.
the bomb!
Mail-in rebates, how I hate thee so. These things seemed to start popping-up first in computer sales, but now they've multiplied and spread into almost everything you can think about buying. Car salesmen love rebates, and you? Well, you get to pay taxes on the full amount, not the "discounted price."
In the six months it takes for me to see my money returned, what is it being used for? My guess is it's funding some terrorist cell. <jk>
...and another thing...What's with all the damn arts and crafts involved with mail-in rebates? Oh gee, let me find my scissors, tape, and maybe some paste to eat while I'm at it. What am I five?! Is this the 70's? Envelopes? Stamps? What are those? I'm buying something that can pump-out 11,000 MPixels/sec and I can't handle the rebate for it online using this fancy Internet thing? No, we're sorry, you're gonna have to run your tongue over this saliva activated seal to get any money back from us.

I found out just last week that my HIS 3870 has a problem. It gives me that "Display driver has stopped responding" message. Since rebate has been cut/sent due to time restrictions, and HIS's warranty policy requires one to pay shipping to AND return shipping, So beware before cutting out your rebates (look up RMA/Warranty and support policies before you do it. And test out your cards as much as you can before doing so).
Dear HIS Customer,
You recently participated in one of our mail-in rebate promotions and your
check has been sent to you on behalf of HIS by a third party mail in rebate
firm. We have received information that the third party mail in rebate firm
that we have contracted to process our rebates is experiencing financial
difficulties and your check therefore may bounce even though we have already
paid sufficient funds to our contractor.
We ask you not to deposit any mail-in rebate check dated prior to November 13.
We are working to take corrective action to get your check to you as soon as
possible. We will update you as soon as we have the proper procedures in
place how to obtain your rebate.
In the meantime, please hold onto the check you have received and do not
deposit it.
Should you have any question, please send any inquiry to
[email protected]
Please accept our apology for this inconvenience and be assured we are
working diligently to address the situation.
Warm regards,
HIS customer service
I say dont bash HIS because of the MIR company is not doing the job correctly and is going down the tube, HIS just needs to get a different MIR division to handle it

HIS is still responsible for the actions of its subcontractors. When those Ford SUVs had faulty tires from Bridgestone (several years ago, I think), Ford still deserved some of the blame, not just Bridgetone.
Yeah but if i bought that ford i would have put 95% of the blame on bridgestone not ford, same in this case if the company was going down and thought that maybe HIS could help them out and take on their business, and HIS knowing absolutely nothing about the problem than its not their fault.
wow you have pretty strong feelings my friend need a psychiatrist?

All rebates are scams. They are inticing you to buy at a low price, but then hoping you dont send in the paperwork to claim the rebate. If they just took the rebate off at the register, there would never be a rebate again.
