  Then post an alternative. Newegg isn’t a good choice: youtu.be/2fnXsmXzphI?si=H2A3652mD73uBRo5

  For keyboards and some other parts you can window shop at Amazon and then go direct to the manufacturer’s website to make a purchase.

  That leaves Microcenter. Which the poster above mentioned.

    I agree. Newegg used to be great but not anymore. Amazon often has what you’re looking for and at the best price. Not everyone has a micro center or equivalent nearby.

    I agree, post an alternative instead of just bitchin!

    Eh. I order hundreds of pieces from them a year and deal with returns. Never had this issue. That being said, this kind of problem can and does happen with other online sellers as well.

      As much as I hear you that this happens with other retailers. It doesn’t happen with Amazon from my experience, and those I’ve known personally. They take what you send back back and refund you, they sometimes say just keep it and we’ll send another to you, do with the old one as you will, they go to bat for you with Manufactures who are trying to weasel out of warranty responsibilities. So I can fully get on with not buying from Amazon for a ton of human reasons, Bezos, employee treatment and such, but when it comes to customer support they are top notch.
