Newegg is frustrating at times

I find it increasingly difficult to access Newegg. I realize that they are probably getting a lot of extra traffic due to the holiday season, but even so I often have to muddle through a slow site. On rare occasion, their site is fast and responsive.

I managed to get one order in today after a few efforts. I later went back to look at a digital camera, but again I had to wade through a painfully slow site. An hour later I went to purchase the camera, but I was not able to get back in. For now, I've given up in frustration.

I love Newegg, their service and selection, as well as their prices. But I really wish they'd beef up their servers.

I did experience long delays over the Thanksgiving holiday, but it's been ok since then. I put in an order a little while ago and all was good.

It's sporadic. I tested my connection at speedtest.net, and my connection is solid and fast. I'm not having problems accessing any other sites, other than newegg.

It's probably one of those things where they see your Cookies, and recognize you.  I've gotta figure they know it's you coming in, and that's when they react.

I'll try it; see what the price is for that second video card I was thinking of adding.  Of course, if you've given up on your computer or reputation and just want to send your card, to me, that's fine too.  You have my address.  I haven't moved or anything.

Well, I went from the bedroom, down to the kitchen for my muffin.  And, then, back up to the den.  So not like I'm dormant, or stagnant, or whatever the term is.

Ace; NewEgg will probably be glad to see me.  Unlike some people.
Ring bells for service.
