Newegg's Eggxpert Review Program

[Aldakoopa]

Same. I requested I stay in, of course.

 

[Joe88]

Same thing for me

 

[balroger]

Yup same here.

 

[Goathead]

and here too...

I assume they will review some of the reviews and crop out a good number of the low end performers

I of course opted to stay as well. My last review was for a pretty decent laptop which I had to sell. But would of loved to keep it.

So here's a real bummer. I got an email from Newegg Eggxpert Reviews today which gets me all excited for a new review sample. However I open the message it's an email saying I have not posted a review for a Seagate drive.

I haven't had a review sample since May. It was a Seagate drive but my review is posted (I checked).

I'm not sure if their system is messed up for the last sample I received or they think they sent me a different Seagate drive more recently. I've had zero review offers since May.

Anybody else have this happen?

 

[Goathead]

just point them to the review and ask them if this is the review they were looking for..... There have been issues in the past where I posted a review and it was not tagged an a eggxpert review. happens

 

[Joe88]

Been quiet here since I was asked if I wanted to stay in a month and a half ago. Havnt gotten an item to review since january, 2 pick what you wants in between but never gotten anything from them.

 

[Goathead]

got an email yesterday that NewEgg flash is being discontinued next month. obvious that Newegg is reworking their company a little so I would hope we'll see some movement on the review program. If they intended to kill it they wouldn't have asked people if they wanted to stay in it I assume.

it lives but...

Going to decline it even though its been almost a year since my last review item, I am never going to use this software, I don't even do photo editing other than copy, paste, and crop.

 

[S_I_N]

I emailed them sometime back asking about status but never received a response.

 

[balroger]

Program is still going, just received a review offer for a midprice thinbook.

 

[rwpritchett]

Same here. Offered a laptop for review. Good to see the program is still running, if only on life support.

 

[S_I_N]

Nothing on my side ��

 

[Goathead]

program appears to still be running. I just got an invite to review a PC tower case. I declined, since I need a case that supports an internal blu-ray player

Yep, I got something today too for the first time in a long time.

Looks like a cheap, ugly case from a brand I never heard of. Was yours the same, or same brand at least?

I accepted. Don't know what I'm going to do with it. Maybe put it out of it's misery after reviewing it.

 

[Goathead]

No, my invite was for this:

https://www.newegg.com/p/3C6-00CH-000N2

and on top of no 5.25 bay I needed support for an E-aTX motherboard

and I prefer black cases anyhow....




yeah, same case as yours

$3,000+ wow. Must be one hell of a case. LOL

I'll never understand why they put 3D images of the case and not real ones from Alda's link.

 

[Joe88]

Its on aliexpress for $150 https://www.aliexpress.com/i/4000013523708.html

Doesn't look that great tbh, unless you like cleaning dust out of your pc constantly, no glass either
But I would probably take it just because I havnt done anything in a long time

Same item offered this morning. Will probably use it for one of the Grandsons builds.
