NewEgg FTW!!!
A couple of things, first I am sure everyone has seen this by now
![]() http://www.newegg.com/ Their early "Black Friday" deals. The next thing, and this is a little quick story to help anyone that is hesitant to purchase from the Egg! Recently, 11/21/09, purchased a keyboard and mouse combo for $49.99 + $7.56 shipping. Okay fine, no problem, willing to pay that, great Logitech wireless set......Now fast forward 4 fricking days, and find out this exact same set is selling for $34.99 + free shipping ![]() Needless to say, after only 4 days, and haven't even received the package, it is an amazing $22.56 less! Now with the economic state these days, that is a shit load of cash, so I was pretty pissed about this. Got online with a live customer representative, and between her and the NewEgg staff they agreed to reimburse my credit card the $22.56 difference!!!!!!!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() Most companies would just tell ya, "tough shit pal, prices change." Not NewEgg, they are gracious enough to understand that a buck is a buck!!! NewEgg FTW!!!!!

They usually say something along the lines of "Now, we don't normally do this but given the situation we can make an exception this one time." Happened when I bought my HD 4890 and there are countless other stories from members around here. Great customer service for sure.

They have great deals on monitors and I want one soooo bad, but I don't paid till 12am on Friday.
I hope they don't sell out of the good ones.
