On a related note, I worry a similar fate may be on Newegg’s doorstep. Over the years, I’ve seen more and more completely unrelated products in their storefront from their core business, and of the components they do sell in their core business, there are too many questionable Chinese brands. I more and more consistently feel like I’m buying from Alibaba Express when I go to that website. And it hasn’t improved much over time either. Why is it so difficult to continually improve how you serve your core demographic for these businesses? I just don’t get it. Sell PC parts. If you can’t compete on price with shipping (Amazon), for goodness’s sake at least make the search experience good enough that when I think “PC parts” I want to go to your website. Anyone who ever took 5 seconds to look at Fry’s website knew, “Oh, these guys are going out of business.” When Newegg is selling coffee machines, I have to ask myself, what moron over there thinks I think “Oh yeah! Electronics! Newegg. Well of course I’d buy my milk frother from them.” No. I wouldn’t.
