Looks like this deal MAY still be available, but NewEgg is jerking me around.

My email to NewEgg:

Why is code CDYG45 being rejected when I try to order item N82E16815327005? The code was supposed to be good until 03/28.

NewEgg's reply:

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. After checking, this promo code is still valid. In this case, you may try again for purchasing this item, if it does not work, you can place the order for this item and then contact us and we will issue the credit in the amount of $25.00 for you. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.

I placed the order and notified them the code still didn't work.
NewEgg's reply:

After checking your account, I noticed that we have charged you for your order # 74696xxx. The next step for the order is to be boxed and scanned at our warehouse. As of this moment since the order has been charged, we can only issue the credit after the order has been fully invoiced and shipped out. Therefore in order to avoid unnecessary troubles, please contact us back with this order number once you have received the package, and then we are able to help you with the credit. Thank you very much for your understanding.

I just had the same experience Wayne. Emailed them, will see what happens.

Well, NewEgg replied and said

Dear Customer,

Thank you for contacting Newegg.

I show this promo code has been voided. I do apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks for your understanding.

Well, now that my order has been invoiced and shipped, I requested the credit, which they claim to have issued, but will take a couple days to appear on my credit card.

BSR, bummer that you got rejected. If you already placed an order, I would complain. Sure sounds like somebody at NewEgg screwed up on this offer.

I emailed them a response back and here is what I got...

Dear Customer,

Thank you for contacting Newegg again.

Please be advised that we can only guarantee the promo codes on our website.

Looks like I'm not going to get this
