I have had bad customer service from NewEgg in the past I'm not surprised by this. Now I buy almost everything off Amazon and only go to Newegg for stuff that can't be DOA (cables and such)
- dsr_ 14y agoCables can certainly be DOA. Miswired jacks, broken strands... these things happen.
- adrr 14y agoWhen wiring our datacenter, buying bulk ethernet cables, you'll find a bad cable every 100 or so cables. Still beats the failure rate of making cables yourself.
- wccrawford 14y agoOn the other hand, if I'm wiring them myself, I can just cut the end off and try again, since I've got a whole pile of ends right there, and the equipment to do it. If I'm relying on the bought cables, it could be quite painful to re-run the wire.
- inportb 14y agoBut that doesn't preclude the possibility of keeping a box of jacks and a crimp tool, just in case.
- sciurus 14y agoI would definitely shop monoprice over newegg for cables.
- teach 14y agoNot that Newegg sells them, but I've had bad luck with Monoprice's analog cables (1/4" or XLR).
