Anyone bought from them before? From what I gathered they are owned by NewEgg and seem to have good reviews. They have the same DVD Burner that NewEgg does, but with free shipping rather than $4.99.

Where did you hear they are affiliated with NewEgg?

NewEgg owns the domain name.

Several reviews mention getting their purchases in NewEgg boxes. They use the same warehouses.

I have ordered a few times from ChiefValue. It is a part of NewEgg. No complaints yet.

Ordered Sunday night. Email saying it shipped today. Tracking number is no good yet, but hoping it shipped out of TN or NJ so I'll get it in a day.

Well, I checked 'em out today, but I absolutely hated the layout of the site and ended up leaving before I could get the info I needed on the products I was looking for.

Ended up ordering from The Egg, so now worries.

Got my drive last night. The layout is horrible, searching is horrible. I just find what I want on Newegg, then check there for it as well by searching by specific name.

My drive came in a Newegg box, the label said from Newegg. Heck it was packaged better than some stuff I get from Newegg. Plus, I saved $4.99 on shipping.

Pretty happy.
