Newegg won't price match themselves

Would it even count as a price match if it's from themselves? I've been able to get a price adjustment on an unshipped item from Newegg by contacting customer service after the price dropped, but that was via customer service contact rather than pricematch.

This doesn't sound like a price match. It's more of a price protection thing.

If the price was a fair deal for you to buy, why would you expect them to give you a further discount if you found the earlier price to be a fair deal?

try contacting c/s see if they will adjust it if they say no just refuse delivery and re order at the lower price.

Hello,

First of all, sorry to bump an old thread but I wanted to share my experience here since this is one of the first match when searching for "newegg price drop after order". On 2018-12-25 I ordered a graphic card that was 24% off. On 2018-12-27, the price of this graphic card dropped to 30% off for a few hours (not entirely sure how long exactly, but maximum 6 hours). While it was lower, I contacted their customer service via their live chat and they issued a refund for the $40 difference no questions asked.



Today I've received a confirmation email:



I'm not sure if their policy changed since, but I was expecting my request to be declined after seeing that thread so I just wanted to post here in case someone else find this thread. Just to clarify, the item was not included in the "Price Match Guaranteed", was already on sale when I purchased, was shipped but not delivered and they issued a refund for the difference regardless.

Thanks for reading,

Jordan

Interesting. I just bought an SSD drive and haven't received it yet and it has gone even lower (by $20). Wonder how often that happens. I'm going to ask they refund the difference too!

Yep that was easy. $20 refunded just for asking and waiting 5 minutes for the process.

Awesome!

Amazon does the same thing. They try to say that I need to return the item and reorder. I told them that's stupid. After complaining a lot of about it they finally did give me the difference in price.
