5.Placing an order
5.1. Orders
5.1.1. Orders
Your order is an offer to Newegg to buy the product(s) and services listed in your order. When you place an order to purchase a product and/or service from Newegg, we will send you an email confirming receipt of your order and containing the details of your order along with a sales order number (the “Order Confirmation”). Your receipt of the Order Confirmation only confirms that we have received your order; it does not constitute Newegg’s acceptance of your order or Newegg’s confirmation of our offer to sell. An order is not binding upon Newegg until it is accepted; Newegg must receive payment before it will accept an order. Payment for product(s) ordered is due prior to shipment. Once payment is received and an order is accepted, Newegg will issue an invoice to you and a contract will come into existence between you and us.
Newegg may, in its sole discretion, at any time after receiving your order, accept or decline your order for any reason. In addition, Newegg may, in its sole discretion, cancel your order and limit order quantity. Where your order is declined, cancelled or limited, we will inform you of this by appropriate means and you will not be charged. However if your order is limited or canceled after your credit card has been charged for the purchase, Newegg will issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount of the charge.
We may process payment for and ship parts of your order separately.
You consent to receive sales invoices electronically. Electronic invoices will be made available in pdf format in the “your account” area of the Site.
5.1.2. MARKETPLACE ORDERS
Marketplace: For an order for an item that is listed on the Site as “Sold and Shipped by a [third-party seller]” through Newegg’s Marketplace platform (“Marketplace Seller”) and not “Sold and Shipped by Newegg” (“Marketplace Item”), Newegg is the seller of record and the order processing is as set out at section “5.1.1. Orders” above and a contract is formed between you and Newegg.
However, although Newegg is the seller of record, the Marketplace Seller and not Newegg is solely responsible for fulfilling and delivering the order to you.
When you place an order for a Marketplace Item, we will provide the Marketplace Seller with the information necessary to process and fulfill the order, in accordance with the terms of Newegg’s Privacy Policy. Please note that Marketplace Sellers may have policies that differ from Newegg’s policies; therefore, for orders for Marketplace Items, please review the applicable Marketplace Seller’s policies for any other terms and conditions that may apply to your order for such items. The Marketplace Seller’s posted policies will control to the extent of any inconsistency between Newegg’s policies and the Marketplace Seller’s posted policies.
5.1.3. Pre-orders
Click the Pre-order button in the item description and checkout as you normally would. A sales order number will be issued at the Order Confirmation screen just as if you were placing a conventional order, but your credit/debit card will not be charged until your pre-ordered item is in stock and ready to ship. If you purchase an in-stock item with a pre-order item, you will be charged accordingly for the in-stock product and the difference when your pre-ordered item is in stock and ready for shipment. In this instance, two sales order numbers will be issued; one for the in-stock merchandise and one for the pre-ordered merchandise. You will be kept up-to-date via the Site and through standard Order Status emails to your account.
5.1.4. Backorders
We will sometimes allow you to backorder an item that is out of stock. However, these items will be clearly marked with a Backorder button. Click the Backorder button in the item description and checkout as you normally would. A sales order number will be issued at the Order Confirmation screen just as if you were placing a conventional order, but your credit/debit card will not be charged until your backordered item is in stock and ready to ship. If you purchase an in-stock item with a backorder item, you will be charged accordingly for the available product and the difference when your backordered item is in stock and ready for shipment. In this instance, two sales order numbers will be issued; one for the in-stock merchandise and one for the backordered merchandise. You will be kept up-to-date via the Site and through standard “Order Status” emails to your account.
Marketplace: Backordering is not currently available for Marketplace Items.
5.2. Payment
In order to place an order with Newegg, you must provide us with your name, shipping address, billing address, telephone number, and payment information, such as your credit card number, billing address, credit card expiration date, and credit card security code. You represent and warrant to Newegg that the credit card information or other payment method information you provide to Newegg is accurate and complete; and you are authorized to use such credit card or payment method for the purchase.
Terms of payment are within our sole discretion and we must receive payment before our acceptance of an order. Payment methods may vary by location. To learn about international payment methods, please click here. Depending on your location, we may accept any of the following payment methods:
- American Express
- Bitpay
- MasterCard
- Newegg Gift Card
- PayPal
- Visa
5.3. Shipping
Your total cost for the purchase of any product will include the shipping and handling charges shown on your Newegg invoice. Your original shipping fees are non-refundable in the case of a returned product. Those fees are paid for the services provided by and to the original carrier, and will not be refunded to you if your item is returned for a refund to Newegg.
Newegg will advise you of estimated shipping dates, but Newegg will, under no circumstances, be responsible for delays in delivery, and associated damages, due to events beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of God or public enemy, acts of federal, state or local government, fire, floods, civil disobedience, strikes, lockouts, and freight embargoes.
To learn more about shipping, please review our International Shipping Policy. The International Shipping Policy is incorporated into these Terms in its entirety.
5.4. Risk of Loss and passing of Title
Newegg will arrange for shipment of ordered product(s) to you, Free Carrier (F.C.A.) meaning risk of loss passes to you upon delivery to the carrier. Title to the product(s) – excluding software – will also pass to you upon delivery to the carrier. Title to software will remain with the licensor(s). All software is provided subject to the license agreement of the software maker. You agree to be bound by any software license agreement once the seal on the package is broken.
5.5. Customs, duties & taxes
When ordering products from Newegg for delivery from outside of your jurisdiction, you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the package reaches the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges. Contact your local customs office for further information. Additionally, please note that when ordering from Newegg, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the products. Your privacy is important to us and we would like our customers to be aware that cross-border deliveries are subject to opening and inspection by customs authorities.
When ordering from Newegg, you’re responsible for assuring the product can be lawfully imported to the destination country.
Customs policies vary widely from country to country; you should contact your local customs office for more information. When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates.
Please note that the Customs offices in some countries, including Brazil, Chile, China, Ecuador, India, Israel, South Africa, South Korea, and Turkey, require the importer of record to provide a particular form of identification before releasing a shipment. For those countries, you may be required to provide an identification number such as a Unique Identification Number, CPF, or Tax ID.
5.6. Estimated VAT/GST & Duty
Newegg offers customers customs duties, taxes and fees (“VAT/GST & Duty”) estimation during checkout and customs clearance on your behalf for certain eligible countries.
When Newegg products are shipped to eligible countries, an estimate of the estimated VAT/GST & Duty will be levied on the items in your order for shipment to countries outside of the U.S. With your authorization, these funds are used by the carrier or another agent to pay the import fees on your behalf (or the recipient’s behalf) to the appropriate authorities of the destination country. The payment of import fees is the responsibility of the importer and is levied based on the laws of the country into which the products are being shipped.
The Estimated VAT/GST & Duty is an estimation of the taxes and duties that may apply and isn’t an actual calculation. Customs regulations and tax rates applicable to certain goods may change between the date the taxes and duties were estimated and the applicable taxes and duties on the date of import into the destination country. The duty or tax rate is often determined by the classification of a good, which varies by country and region.
Duties and taxes are calculated based on the market value (actual price before any promotions) of the product and not the price after Newegg promotions. This allows destination country customs authorities to obtain the accurate import duties and taxes owed to them based on the actual value of the goods.
You won’t be charged additional fees if the actual Import Fees exceed the VAT/GST & Duty we estimated.
5.7. Order processing
5.7.1. Order status
Newegg will keep you informed of your order status via email. All tracking information will be emailed to your Newegg ID once your order has shipped. You may also acquire your order status and other live updates by logging in to your account on the Site.
5.7.2. Order processing
Once you have placed your order, you can expect your order to be processed within approximately 1-2 business days, provided the items are in stock and there are no problems with payment verification. Newegg does not guarantee same day-shipping. Orders are not processed on U.S. holidays.
Marketplace: If you purchase a Marketplace Item from a Marketplace Seller, that Marketplace Seller is responsible for shipping the item to you. While Newegg does not guarantee processing times for Marketplace Items, in general Marketplace Sellers should process orders within 1-2 business days of order verification.
5.8. Canceling orders
You may cancel your order for a product at no cost any time before the order has been processed and shipped (i.e. before an invoice has been issued to you), provided Newegg has sufficient time to cancel the order.
Nothing in this section limits your rights to cancel your order under any law.
5.9. Returns
To learn about returns, please review our Return Policy. The Return Policy is incorporated into these Terms in its entirety.
Nothing in the Return Policy limits your rights and remedies under any law.
5.10. Newegg Marketplace Guarantee

With that in mind, we offer the Newegg Marketplace Guarantee for purchases of Marketplace Items. With the Newegg Marketplace Guarantee, if you meet certain requirements, you may be eligible for reimbursement of the purchase price for most Marketplace Items.

Hardware is classified as any component that will be used when assembling a computer system (a hard drive, motherboard, processor and a floppy drive are all examples of merchandise that will qualify).

If you purchase certain products through the Site, you may be able to purchase an optional service plan, warranty, or protection plan (the “Plans”) for the product.

If you are a consumer, the provisions in these Terms are intended to be only as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the laws of your State of residence. In any event, Newegg reserves all rights, defenses and permissible limitations under the law of your State of residence.
12.5. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
Any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the sales transactions between you and Newegg shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Specifically, the validity, interpretation and performance of these Terms shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods.
The below dispute resolution provisions do not apply to the extent you are a Consumer:
Except for claims for injunctive relief by either party, you and Newegg agree that any dispute or controversy arising out of, in relation to, or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Site including without limitation, any and all disputes, claims (whether in tort, contract, statutory or otherwise) or disagreements concerning the existence, breach, interpretation, application or termination of these Terms, shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act in Los Angeles, California or, at the option of the party seeking relief, by telephone, online, or via written submissions alone, and be administered by JAMS under the then current rules of JAMS (formerly known as Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services) by one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with such rules and such arbitrator shall be independent and impartial. If the parties fail to agree on the arbitrator within twenty (20) calendar days after the initiation of an arbitration hereunder, JAMS shall appoint the arbitrator. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding on the parties. Judgment on any award(s) rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking immediate injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate. The parties undertake to keep confidential all awards in their arbitration, together with all confidential information, all materials in the proceedings created for the purpose of the arbitration and all other documents produced by the other party in the proceedings and not otherwise in the public domain, save and to the extent that disclosure may be required of a party by legal duty, to protect or pursue a legal right or to enforce or challenge an award in legal proceedings before a court or other judicial authority. The arbitrator shall award all fees and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, to the prevailing party. Any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
You may choose to opt out of the agreement to arbitrate by mailing a written opt-out notice (“Notice”) to Newegg. The Notice must be postmarked no later than thirty (30) days after the date you accept these Terms for the first time. The Notice must be mailed to Newegg at 21688 Gateway Center Dr, Diamond Bar, CA 91765 to the attention of Newegg Legal Department. This procedure is the only mechanism by which you can opt out of the agreement to arbitrate. Opting out of the agreement to arbitrate has no effect on any other parts of these Terms, or any previous or future arbitration agreements that you have entered into with Newegg.
ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SALES TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN YOU AND NEWEGG, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, AND YOU AND NEWEGG EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT CLASS ACTION AND REPRESENTATIVE ACTION PROCEDURES SHALL NOT BE ASSERTED IN NOR APPLY TO ANY ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THESE TERMS.
Finally, you also agree not to bring any legal action, based upon any legal theory including contract, tort, equity or otherwise, against Newegg that is more than one year after the date of the applicable invoice.
To the extent you are a Consumer, you can bring legal proceedings in respect of these Terms in the Japanese courts.
Newegg is not authorized to do business in every jurisdiction. Information published on the Site may contain references or cross-references to goods or services that are not available in your state or country.
12.6. Waiver
The failure of either party to require performance by the other party of any provision of these Terms shall not affect in any way the first party’s right to require such performance at any time thereafter. Any waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of these Terms shall not be taken or held by the other party to be a continuing waiver of that provision unless such waiver is made in writing.
12.7. Severability
If any provision contained in these Terms is or becomes invalid, illegal, or for any reason unenforceable in whole or in part, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect the remaining provisions and portions of these Terms, and the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall be deemed modified so as to have the most similar result that is valid and enforceable under applicable California law.
12.8. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with Newegg’s invoice regarding the products and/or services ordered by you, constitute the entire agreement between Newegg and you and supersede all prior or contemporaneous arrangements, proposals, oral or written, understandings, representations, conditions, warranties, and all other communications between Newegg and you relating to the subject matter of any contract to the fullest extent permitted by law. These Terms may not be explained or supplemented by any prior course of dealings or trade by custom or usage.
12.9. Third Party Rights
These Terms are between you and Newegg.
No third party shall have any rights to enforce any of its own terms with the exception of manufacturers and Marketplace Sellers referred to in the Terms. Such manufacturers and Marketplace Sellers will only have rights to enforce its terms against you (and not against Newegg), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, including any limitation or exclusion of liability in favor of Newegg under these Terms.
Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph of this section 12.9, neither you nor Newegg will need to get the agreement of any third party in order to end the contract or make any changes to these Terms.
12.10. Children
We do not sell products for purchase by children. We sell children’s products for purchase by adults. If you are under the age of majority pursuant to applicable law, you may only use Newegg with the involvement of a parent or guardian. If you order a product to which a minimum age requirement applies, by ordering that product you confirm that you and, if different, the recipient of the product, are of the required age necessary to buy that product.
