Hi,
Well not always only sold and shipped by amazon or fulfilled by amazon are ezpz
Newegg always has best price on memory so that's pretty much all I've gotten from them in the past

Amazon free returns really gets weird on unsealed boxes lol these newer boards with asus seals on them is a welcome change seeing amazon you never know what is being sent new or open box without a seal

True but the Egg is loosing it's grip ,Microcenter is a 20 minute drive from me so i would just do that other items i really want i can do Prime next day no big deal

Ask newegg lol they give you two day ship that ends up being a week and a half ship with excessive delays
ups is way better than USPS but they all seem like the same right now Amazon by far the fastest /that's why Amazon has a Billionaire owner no BS just get it done

Hi,
Depends on the issue Amazon does not control or attempt to control price gougers on amazon or price match when you catch one gouging only amazon customers
Not until just recently with covid19 gouging did they do a little to prevent it
Before they were just wanting the sells fee.

Micro center is changing in store warranty terms
They finally figured out people were using it as upgrade insurance lol no kidding
Found that out on x299 mark 2 return they made me wait to confirm dimm sticks were dropping off after the psu and cpu were fried so yeah that took an extra hour and a half before I could get out of there.

I don't blame Microcenter because you have a lot of first time builders killing product because they're trying to learn

On the other hand they treat brand new sealed returns as damaged product and mark it down how you think i got my X73 Kraken was returned brand new sealed and got a $45 dollar price drop i took it and ran out of there like a backstage NWO brawl lol

Hi,
No you misunderstand what I was saying maybe
These items being returned have nothing wrong with them

People use the warranty to swap out for new items like gpu's most common returned item likely
I did that once myself 1080 classified for the 1080ti ftw3 when it was instock lol

But as I told the MC rep, you guys sell open box discounted items all the time "1080 classified was one" what's the problem you offered a warranty and people use it lol
Whether you can duplicate an issue or not is irrelevant to the warranty can you duplicate exactly every bodies exact hardware = no.

Last i noticed in store warranties doubled

No ,I understood some people have Buyers remorse and that is a real thing

Many don't research product anyway which in return this kinds of stuff happens just like i thought i got a bum pump but after reading a couple trouble shoot guides got it going without taking it back sometimes were to quick to want those results

HI,
Yeah I'm prime now but I'm canceling here pretty soon started when the formula was purchased
They don't have near enough movies to entertain keeping it and I don't buy enough to pay 100.00 a year for free shipping on some items.

Hi,
Not a lot of stuff qualifies for prime discounts seems that I do buy lol
