I've ordered from them too and haven't had a problem either. My buddy ordered his last 2 computers from TD and he didn't have a problem either. I just have bad luck

I order a majority of my stuff from Newegg. I've ordered well over 10 times, and everything has been shipped to me superfast.
I now usually compare prices between Newegg and Zipzoomfly, since ZZF has free 2-day shipping. Still, Newegg usually comes out to be cheaper, and the parts get here around the same time, if not sooner than ZZF parts do, because ZZF always waits and extra day before sending them off.

well like I said i had 2 bad experience in a row with newegg.

i've ordered over 10K worth of stuff from zzf and have been using them when they were called googlegear. Never had 1 problem. I simply wont use newegg anymore. The funny thing is they both have warehouse in CA. With zzf, my parts always ship next day and I get them next day 90% of the time. YMMV.
