You couldn't have done this at the start of the business day? My morning Cash Back purchase at Newegg was at the old rate ... blah. Sometimes (many times) I hate fatwallet....
leprechanmonkie said:well i dont think Newegg has a profit margin like the companies offering 10-20% CashBack. They would be loosing money if they made it too highThat has nothing to do with Newegg giving only 1% (now 2) CashBack to Fatwallet but more (3%) to the live program. And after all the deals from Newegg that have been posted...
I'll hold out for the rare sale (5-7% CB) or the epic sale (>7% CB). Of course, we may live long enough to see a legendary sale (>10% CB), but I am thinking that would be through MS Live.
I for one am sick and tired of Newegg "adjusting" prices and shipping prices going up every few weeks. For example I was trying to buy 25 usb flash drives 2 days ago, shipping ended up being $53, roughly 40% of the total. Newegg rep offered $20 off, but how do I tell my client that there is $33 shipping charge for 1 lb box. I still love to shop there but bargains are much harder to find these days.
Open your own blog and sign up for these on linkshare or CJ and you should get more. FW is not doing us any favor by giving an extra percent back....we are doing them loyalty by buying through their links so they also make money...but 3% is always better.
