No, newegg should also be held accountable. Both parties benefited from the business, end of story. These are corporations that only do things that they can make money off of, not your buddy across the street that you should forgive and forget. It's not even about consumer vs corporate. If you had a grocery store chain and you were offered a deal by your produce supplier. If you agreed to place your next stock order with them and had it shipped using a specific freight corporation they were also doing business with, the freight company would discount you freight charges. This is obviously a ploy to garner business for both parties, because the amount of money discounted from freight is overshadowed by the potential income generated by the incentive advertised by the supplier to all it's customers. At the same time, the supplier has potential to increase business because of discounted freight costs that will be payable after shipment has been made. It's a win win for both of them. Now what would you do if your store received the ordered shipment, but no discount? Obviously the first action would be to talk to the freight company, but if you're talking about hundreds or thousands of dollars that you were supposed to be reimbursed depending on the size of your order, you'd definitely talk to your supplier and have THEM work it out for you as 1. They offered you the deal with specified conditions, 2. They may or may not have gotten your order in the first place.
