i wish other companies like newegg did this like western digital does for failed hard drives. they send you the replacement item first with a credit card on hold for the amount it's worth, then you can send your defective item back after you receive the new one. you have a month before you get charged.

although i'm sure there is potential for lots of abuse, it's a nice system for the customer and with a valid credit card number and address you could track down whoever it was that abused it usually.

i have to RMA some RAM but i can't go without it in my system so i've got to find like a week where i'm not going to use it or something and send it off to newegg. that's kind of messed up.

It's called cross-shipping, and lots of places do it if you ask.

hmm have you tried it with newegg?

Yeah, I've had newegg do this for me every single time I've had to RMA something. You just have to call and ask.
