Newegg Scammed Us

Episode Title: "Newegg Scammed Us"
Content: Newegg ripped us off when we tried to return a product by claiming it was "damaged," despite being in the same condition as how they sent it. Sponsor: be quiet!'s Silent Base 802 https://geni.us/DaGYu Has Newegg done something similar to you? POST IN THE COMMENTS so you can help other people who have the same problem! Newegg claimed that the pins on our motherboard were bent (even though we never even opened it), then when we called them out, they claimed there was "thermal paste" on the socket. They fought tooth and nail to deny our $500 refund, apparently making up new stories at every corner. Newegg might try this on all motherboards, but has special leeway to do it on open box products. Don't buy them. We will be avoiding Newegg as much as we can for all future motherboard purchases (and purchases in general). It's unacceptable that everything was magically refunded and sent back and resolved after we tweeted publicly, yet we got no support when acting as a normal customer.
