I ordred a bunch of parts, and today I get an e-mail claiming that only SOME of them have been shipped, even though everything was apparently in stock when I placed the order.

I can't build the PC without the case, plus they didn't ship the monitor.

Anyone else ever deal with this crap?
 
Yeah they don't always process everything at the same time. I bought over 20 things on newegg at one time and it took 3 days for them to ship it all.

most other places do the same type of thing just relax and give it a day or two they'll get it all out.
 
okay. I didn't mean to bash them, I've just never dealt with a company that operated that way,
 
Really? Oh well.

Anyway, newegg has three major warehouses spread among California, New Jersey, Tennessee. Note that not all of the warehouses share the exact same inventory. Newegg will ship from whatever warehouse has the part you bought and is closest to you. Hence the apparent "delay"

But don't worry about it, you'll get your parts.

Oh and yes you can build a PC outside of a case. Just place the mobo on the mobo's box and jump the two power pins with a screwdriver. No case needed.

The majority of online retailers operate that way. Welcome to the internet and online shopping.
 
Having purchased probably $6k worth from Newegg, I can vouch they will fulfill your order and timely.

I'm not a fan boy, but they have had the best service out of the following other vendors I commonly compare/use.

Their prices are usually right in line or just a couple of bucks more and it is well worth it for their customer service and the ability to trust them.
