Newegg Gets In On The Early Black Friday Sales With Black November

Just like how Amazon (and it was also brought to my attention, offers.com) has started offering Black Friday sales early, so, too, has Newegg. The site began its Black November promotion today, and while there doesn’t appear to be anything too crazy right now, it’s literally Day One of the sale. I, for one, am waiting for a Blu-ray drive to put into my PC. Not that I need one, but I’ve been… → Read More

Its IPO Still Nowhere In Sight, Newegg CEO Tally Liu Is Out

Last we’d heard from Newegg, the major online electronics retailer, was when the company filed for a $175 million IPO back in September 2009.

Now we hear former President Tally Liu, who took over the CEO role from founder and chairman Fred Chang a little over two years ago, is out. Details are scarce for the moment, but Chang will apparently be resuming his previous role as the global CEO of… → Read More

Just to help you spend your paycheck today, we’ve got another CrunchDeal for you. Let’s say you’re running out of space, so you don’t have enough room to download Left 4 Dead 2. No problem, Newegg.com is selling a Western Digital Caviar Green 1TB drive for $70. This is the SATA 3.0Gb/s version, with the 4kb physical sectors. That makes it perfect for Windows 7, but no so… → Read More

Newegg's Shell Shocker needs many exclamation points: Adobe Photoshop Elements for $49

Newegg has the most ridiculous names for its sales. For example, today we have SHELL SHOCKER, written in some aggressive-looking font, along with a picture of a broken shell, to drive home the theme. As for the deal itself, I spy Adobe Photoshop Elements for $49, a full 44 percent off the regular price. → Read More

CrunchDeals: 4GB Zune + Car accessory pack for $100

Considering the 4GB Zune goes for $100 by itself, I’d say this deal from Newegg is hard to pass up. The 8GB Zune black is also being bundled with the kit at a $10 discount. The rest of the 8GB colors are still $130, but you still get the car accessory kit for free, which is usually sold for $70. Couple that with the new Zune Pass and you’ve got yourself a pretty righteous deal. You better… → Read More

Newegg.com has some ‘Cyber Monday’ deals for you: Draft-N Linksys router for $85

Cyber Monday, online retailers’ version of Black Friday, may be a complete sham, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find a few deals out there. Newegg, which throws the unfortunate phrase “Mega Monday Madness” into the mix, has hundreds of stuff that may interest you. Why, there’s a copy of Call of Duty 4 for $39.99 (the same price I paid last year—some deal!), a 5.1… → Read More

Not content with a mere Black Friday sale, Newegg.com starts pre-Black Friday sale

As you might expect, Newegg.com is having itself one of those Black Friday sales later this week, on Friday, but they’re also having a bit of a pre-sale that might interest you. It’s sorta like pre-gaming. There’s a whole bunch of stuff on sale, but the following items caught my eye. • Intel Core 2 Quad processor for $179 • 100 Verbatim 4.7GB DVD-Rs for $18.99 &bull… → Read More

Newegg stops collecting NY State sales tax

Newegg doesn’t care what the State of New York says about collecting sales tax from NY residents and I’d like to give them a high five. Seriously, NY can take that Amazon tax and shove it. “After careful review and consideration, we are pleased to inform you that we have stopped collecting New York sales tax, effective August 21, 2008,” Newegg spokesman Bernard Luthi wrote… → Read More
