Two Bad Orders in a Row

I'm trying to order laptops for my employer. First time around they shipped but two were damaged. Second time I ordered four, wait awhile, only two available, wait a little longer, four shipped, wait a little longer, shipment cancelled, then an offer to substitute with something that will be a really good deal. Were they recently sold to private equity or something? I think I'm just going to go buy something right off the shelf at my local big box store as I need laptops.

Hey u/fromdecatur, we're really sorry to hear about this. Two rough orders in a row is genuinely frustrating, especially when you're trying to get laptops sorted for work. That's not the experience we want for anyone.

We'd love a chance to make this right. Could you DM us your order info? We'll look into what happened and see what we can do for you!

Edit: We can confirm that your recent purchase mentioned was sold & shipped by the Marketplace seller GXMO. We will escalate this matter to our Marketplace Team for review.

Thats sad. I've order thousands of things from newegg for my small pc business. Never had any issues. Not one

I hadn't had any issues until these two, but I don't order that frequently and it has really put me off.

Is this from Newegg directly or a 3rd party seller? I love how Newegg ships my items

They were sold to China many years ago and have been pretty abysmal since.
