Dang when did Newegg become the problem? I’ve been buying stuff from them for decades.
They got bought out, and the new owners do less of their own selling and more pass-through for shadier vendors as I understand it.

A decade ago.
A Chinese conglomerate bought a majority stake in 2016. They immediately started going downhill. Then in 2020 they merged with another Chinese company.
Newegg used to be good. I bought a lot from them, too. Even had a shirt. They haven’t been good for a while. I don’t know all the details.
Real ones — computer builders, I mean — would just use PCPartPicker and buy from whoever had the best prices. Even if you didn’t need their tools to tell you what was compatible with what, the site was fun and free and it saved you money. Used to be, Newegg had the best prices, but they started getting undercut by Amazon and others. But there was some other drama with them, too.
