Between March 17, 2006 and April 27, 2006 Newegg will be honoring a checkout code for free shipping. The code is PCG10406. I know some of you order from them as do I so I thought I would pass this along.
The code appeared in the April issue of PC Gamer. If there are any restrictions they didn't list them in the magazine. Have to wait until tomorrow to see if Newegg decides to limit the free shipping deal. Hopefully not. Amazon doesn't. Got a 21 inch monitor from them a few years ago that would have cost $60 to ship - shipped free.
lol coursedesign ;.. and thx John, for the code... good time to order heavy stuff agree :p
fwiw I've been very pleased w/newegg, have orderd a lot from them this past year, a lot cheaper than bestbuy/compusa locally, and dependable/fast re mail order.. they're my favorite pc hardware vendor, like bhp is for video stuff..
I have some bad news. I tried this Promo Code on a $40 item and it was rejected. I e-mailed them and this was their response:
"We just wanted to clear up a misunderstanding about the promo code found in the latest issue of PCGamer.
The promo code that was advertised in PCGamer is intended for free shipping on select AMD processors. The promo code does not apply to any other items other than the ones in the advertisement. Please review the AD for specifics on which AMD cpu’s qualify for this offer.
Thank you all for your attention to this matter and we apologize for the confusion. Please feel free to PM us if you have any further questions or concerns."
Sincerely,
Newegg Customer Support

Sorry guys. I thought the deal was legit. There wasn't anything in the ad that said that.
