Guy, we really have no feeling! Often the best friendships start like this, eh eh!Īnd 'The OS is Vista Premium 32bit.' was referred to something that you deleted from your post. You had no way to answer me, as my post had never been posted! 'No answer' was referred to my answer to you, which had disappeared, and not to some answer to me from your side. This is the reason of my 'Hmmm, strange, I am sure to have replied to Therealjobe but no answer is there. So, when I realized that, I posted again. It may have been some server error, no idea.

I do not smoke, drink, or drug myself, so I guess I was not allucinating! It has never been posted, I mean, I wrote it, I sent it, it should have been there, but nope. Let me explain, you wrote the reply nº 38, grue155 the 39, and I had written a n✤0 to answer to something that you were saying, and which is NOT the n✤0 that you read now. w.seagate.Mumble mumble, I smell misunderstanding again. Sometimes it takes a couple of calls to get the 'right' agent on the line.Īs for the data, DBAN: will do the trick (just BE SURE you have selected the right drive!) as will Seagate's SeaTools Zero Fill utility: I called again and politely mentioned that I should not be punished for their poor packing and UPS' bad handling, they agreed and refunded the shipping fees. Since the laptop was now out-of-stock, they had to give me a credit, but I had to buy a more expensive laptop and they still wanted to charge me shipping.both ways for the DOA laptop. The laptop failed to boot, so I immediately called to tell them about the shipping damage. The box had been bounced, dropped, kicked and even looked like it had tire marks on it!

I bought a laptop from them, knowing full well about the policy. Newegg's laptop policy is ridiculously skewed in their favor, I guess to prevent people from buying a laptop and returning it for any reason other than DOA. If the difference in the selling price is small, choose the place with better return options. Many sellers, like, include return shipping labels with the items just for cases like this. This is a case in point, to always pay attention to how refunds/exchanges are handled BEFORE you buy. They are usually easier to deal with than the seller. Most manufacturers will cross-ship as long as you give them a credit card number.
