I just ordered a Gigabyte 9700 Pro and a SLK800 from Newegg this last weekend and I never did receive any shipping confirmation from them. I checked online at their site Monday evening and saw that my order had shipped, so I didn't worry about not receiving the shipping notification. Today, my package came in and was in good shape and the order was complete. I went online to resellerratings.com to rate them and I put in my comments about Newegg is slipping up a little and no notification of shipping. I did this about 12:00 noon and to my surprise, I received an email from Newegg about 5:00 PM. They stated that they had gone through their latest ratings at resellerrating.com and saw my post and checked into it further. They said that they had a server go down on them last weekend and some email didn't get sent, including my invoice and shipping email. They apoligized profusely and said that they were going to send me a "goodie box" and a T-shirt, either the Newegg T-shirt or the Abit/Newegg T-shirt. I replied back that I wanted the Abit/Newegg T-shirt in size L and Roxanne at Newegg replied by 6:00 PM that it was on the way.
Now that is what I call a premium online retailer; probably the best online retailer I"ve dealt with. Not only do they check to see how people are rating them, they also the extra mile to keep their customers happy. I never complained to Newegg directly, just listed that they never sent me shipping notification. They went the extra mile to see why I didn't receive this notification and also offered up some free goodies to boot, and I never asked for anything as compensation. I'm really curious to see what they wil send me besides the T-shirt. I do know that I will be making plenty of future orders with Newegg.
Newegg rocks!
