Frequently asked questions

Must I return entire bundle for refund?
Yes. Bundle purchases require returning the ENTIRE BUNDLE for refund per Newegg policy. Individual bundle products may return for replacement only, not partial bundle refund.
Combo kit — return one RAM stick for refund?
Individual combo products may return for replacement within policy. Refund on single combo line deducts combo discount from refund amount. If discount exceeds unit price, return all combo items or add value to receive refund.
Some combos restrict individual refund — where listed?
Combo product page states if individual refund restricted. Must return entire combo in those cases. Screenshot restrictions at purchase.
GPU combo — keep PSU return GPU?
Calculate clawback: combo discount applied across items. Returning GPU alone may yield zero or negative refund math — return both or consult CS calculator.
Free game code bundle — return hardware without code?
Promotional software value deducts if code redeemed. Unredeemed code must return with hardware for full refund.
Bundle one item DOA — return whole bundle?
DOA one line may replacement single item. Full bundle refund for one DOA part unnecessary unless discount math blocks single replacement — ask CS.
Partial bundle shipment — refund timing?
Refund processes only after all required bundle components for that RMA type are received. Staggered shipments delay clock.
Black Friday bundle GPU + game — game opened?
Opened physical game non-returnable. Deduction applies for opened game when returning bundle hardware.
Newegg bundle vs marketplace bundle?
Marketplace bundle rules follow seller terms plus Newegg combo policy overlay. Read both.
Misleading bundle compatibility — full refund?
SNAD on combo listing promises may justify full bundle return without discount clawback. Document false compatibility claims.
Return bundle to different warehouses?
Single RMA should include all items. Multiple labels on one RMA — ship all boxes.
Restocking on opened bundle GPU only?
Opened VGA in bundle still triggers 15% on that line’s calculated refund after discount clawback.
Gift bundle — store credit only?
Gift purchases refund as store credit per policy. Bundle same rule.
Canceled bundle line before ship?
Unshipped lines cancel without return. Shipped bundle may need full return for refund math integrity.
Bundle price protection after partial return?
No price protection standard. Return and repurchase if sale ended.
