Compare Newegg.com (USA) vs Micro Center

"Josh and Danny did a great job helping me with a few of the items I purchased for my new PC build. Josh explained how the incompatible ECC error correction memory I accidentally purchased was for server applications that require reliability and motherboards with the same compliance. They usually have perforations and an extra chip-set found at the center of the module sticks. Gaming memory is usually listed as un-buffered. Danny helped with recommendations regarding CPU cooling. He also explained that the ARGB fans I picked out don't necessarily require embedded motherboard control, and that they are usually controlled via separate module and software."

"I made a couple orders and apparently they broke them up into several more. My card confirmed purchase with me, which was a "decline" at Newegg. They didn't show that in their cart though - after the card succeeded, I got a success message. Then the orders got cancelled because of a "decline" and now they are out of stock for Christmas. I can't believe how screwed over I am after doing everything right."

"On 3/23 my wife went to do a return , basically returning a gaming labtop that I purchased from microcenter . I have indeed purchased 4 labtops within the last 30 days , and have exchanged them either due to thermals , performance not what it was advertised or reviewed or defective unit . Last purchase was a msi Titan 18hx , when spending 5k on gaming labtop , which is a very expensive investment you have to be 100 percent about the product your buying . My biggest concern today isn’t the fact they were upset because I swapped the device , my two major concerns are one the way the General manager approached her asking her what happened ?? And his tone and his approach , he stated that he wouldn’t be able to do any more returns due his loss of money from a financial side , which we did anyways because it was within the return period , as a general manager he should have greeted her first asked what is the reason her husband keeps returning labtops , as a leader running his building where all his associates are watching him and how he offers customer service in a time where every dollar spent could be detrimental to his business survival he actually doesn’t care . I hope this review reaches as many people as possible to understand that customer service and how you are treated is very important because people now have options , and where to shop . Their listed specs don’t match what their vendors send them and that is a problem . For example the MSI titan was advertised and listed that it will run the 64 Gig ram configuration at 5600MHZ which it doesn’t not . Out the box it runs at 4000MHZ and once you manually set the timings to anything above 5200 it becomes unstable and crashes . That isn’t the consumer fault that’s their fault . Also their open box items are stated that they are open box , meaning that a customer purchased them and returned them which now is an open box which isn’t the case for their open box policy . Their open box could mean they opened the unit for repair , or faulty screen which in that case should be listed as refurbished or reconditioned . I’m already in touch with with their corporate office and will be also filing a BBB complaint against this location for how they treated my wife . This is by far the most poor service I have ever acknowledged in my entire retail career ."
