Escalation ladder

Verify duplicate vs authorization

Day 1–3
  1. Compare merchant transaction IDs — auth vs capture vs refund
  2. Check restocking correction re-charge pattern
  3. Forward refund proof to Affirm or PayPal immediately
  4. Marketplace duplicate — message seller and Newegg

Billing correction

Day 4–7
  1. Call Newegg billing with both charge IDs
  2. Request reversal of erroneous second capture
  3. Tax line should zero on full refund — escalate if not
  4. Canceled RMA but replacement shipped — refuse delivery

Issuer dispute

Day 8+
  1. Unauthorized duplicate charge dispute with refund proof
  2. Avoid double recovery if first refund still pending
  3. Fraudulent charge with no order — password reset and issuer fraud

Frequently asked questions

Newegg charged my card after refund email?
Verify second charge is not original authorization clearing separately from refund credit. Compare transaction IDs and dates. True duplicate charge after Processed email needs billing escalation with both IDs.
