Newegg RMA'd the board to Gigabyte, didn't pay the repair fee, got the broken board back and then put it back to sale. That's either a big fuck up, or fraud.
Gamers Nexus sent the board back without even opening it, Newegg didn't inspect the return to see that there was a giant RMA sticker between Newegg and Gigabyte where they clearly marked the board as broken, complete with inspection date. Again, that's a really big fuck up on Newegg's part, or just outright fraud.
Newegg also sent Gamers Nexus an email detailing how the board had "thermal pate" on it, "meaning that it was installed". And when Gamers Nexus got the board back, no thermal paste was found on the item, which was sold as an open box anyways. That sounds like outright fraud to me if they make false claims about the board's condition.
- BoorishBears 5y agoYour comment is just getting into plain dishonesty. Like 5 seconds into looking they found the speck of thermal paste Newegg is talking about... It's not much at all, but Newegg was (wrongly) under the impression someone was pulling a fast one on them, so it makes sense even that speck of thermal paste is a smoking gun that "no, you did use this thing"
