Title: Newegg.ca Post by: fuser on October 01, 2008, 03:07:38 PM Launch day deals (http://promotions.newegg.ca/Welcome/index.html?cm_sp=HomepageLB-_-Welcome-_-http%3a%2f%2fpromotions.newegg.ca%2fWelcome%2f620x130.jpg)
It opened today, so far the pricing and launch promo's are Terrrrrrrrrrrrrrible Pricing is still above ncix/directcanada on a few quick comparison items and heck shipping is more then booth sites. If you do bother to find a good deal, there's a $10 off promo code for first 4000 orders over $49. CANGRANDOP Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Oban on October 01, 2008, 04:02:59 PM Yawn, pricing is nothing special. I had high hopes for this too.
Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: NiX on October 01, 2008, 05:39:33 PM We all did. The problem is they're shipping it in from the states. They won't hold up against NCIX, TigerDirect or CanadaComputers
Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Fordel on October 02, 2008, 03:03:14 AM NCIX always sounded like some kind of government agency to me.
Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Reg on October 02, 2008, 04:51:10 AM I took a quick look and their prices on old DDR memory are the best I've seen anywhere in Canada.
Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Oban on October 02, 2008, 05:52:31 AM I took a quick look and their prices on old DDR memory are the best I've seen anywhere in Canada. Did you see the shipping charge though? Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: fuser on October 02, 2008, 06:05:49 AM The problem is they're shipping it in from the states. WHAT?! If they do that, we would get GST/PST + shipping + duty/brokerage charges? Oh well back to NCIX, and price matching with shopbot.ca ;) Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Oban on October 02, 2008, 06:30:55 AM Yeah, odd that they are charging PST and shipping from the States.
NCIX is still the way to go. Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Reg on October 02, 2008, 07:44:54 AM Ahh, I didn't look at the shipping. Oh well.
Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Bunk on October 02, 2008, 11:00:31 AM Yea, I'll stick to driving down the street to NCIX, thanks.
Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Miasma on October 02, 2008, 03:24:55 PM If they are shipping from the States anyway then why didn't they let us buy stuff from them before? Why bother rebranding, they could have just added international shipping options to the checkout...
I have to assume there is some stupid law I don't know about. Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: Teleku on October 02, 2008, 04:44:44 PM You'd think NAFTA would stop most stupid laws that keep them from shipping across the border....
Oh hey, I'm posting in a Canadia thread. Title: Re: Newegg.ca Post by: FatuousTwat on October 02, 2008, 04:46:45 PM I think I'm part candanian.
