$10 AMEX Express Checkout Credits from Cancelled Newegg Purchases Not Posting - Time to Buy More Game Codes

Last week, Newegg cancelled many people's purchases, including many of my own purchases.

I was checking my American Express accounts this morning for the Best Buy offers and I saw that the Ticketmaster credits posted.  Hurrah!

The Newegg purchases that were cancelled unfortunately did not post.  I was hopeful that the credits might post anyways, but it looks like I was wrong.

I made a purchase from Newegg for every card.  I made the purchases for Newegg on the 14th and the purchases for TicketMaster on the 15th.

I did receive the $10 credit when I purchased a game code since the order was not cancelled.

I like that every purchase has a credit associated with it!


Ok, time to go back and buy lots of $0.40 game codes.  That's annoying.  Let's hope that the credits will post even though it isn't our first time using AMEX Express Checkout anymore.

Newegg Responds to Cancellations with $5 Coupon Code - With A Suggestion

Update:  I decided to buy a 16GB micro SD which costs $6 with $1 shipping which I needed for my phone anyways.

Earlier today Newegg cancelled many people's $0.30 orders.  They recently responded by giving everyone who bought from there a $5 coupon code.  It's nice to see some good customer service.



The coupon code is attached to your email and can only be used one time and unfortunately does not work on Gift Cards.  If anyone finds anything of value that is $5 or close to it that the coupon code works for, please comment.

Dear OREN,

We are contacting you today regarding your recent purchase of one or more items sold by V-Top Trading, a Marketplace Seller. Unfortunately, there was a system error that caused the item to be listed for sale at an extremely low price along with free shipping from overseas. Due to this inadvertent pricing error, the orders were voided.

Newegg is dedicated to ensuring our customers are notified and provided with all necessary information whenever an error occurs. As a token of our sincere apology for this system error, we have arranged for a $5.00 off personal promo code that will be good for a single use on the account that is associated with this email address.

Promo Code: *****

If you have any questions regarding the information provided in this email, please do not hesitate to contact Newegg Customer Service through one of the convenient contact methods provided here. We value your business and thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,
Newegg Customer Service

AMEX Express Checkout - Newegg Cancel your $0.30 Item? Don't Worry, Yet

The last 2 days have been amazing for American Express cardholders.

With the introduction of AMEX Express Checkout, AMEX was giving out $10 per AMEX card at a number of merchants. 

Newegg and Ticketmaster were real moneymakers.  

You could make a $1 donation at Ticketmaster and earn $10 ($5 mow)  

At Newegg, there were items available for sale at less than $1, some as low as $0.30.

Trouble hit this afternoon with a slew of cancellations from Newegg.  It seems that the seller didn't do a great job of monitoring their inventory and decided to cancel lots of orders. 

It's interesting that the email says that the customer decided to cancel, which I and others most certainly did not.

Now that orders are cancelled, the question is whether the credits will come through.  My prediction is that the credits will come through anyways.  I can't say that for sure but there is nothing to lose here.  Let's wait a week, see if the credits post.  If they don't, we can all go back and buy game codes for $0.40 which don't run out.

I would also recommend contacting newegg customer service asking why it says the orders were cancelled when you didn't cancel the orders.

Lots of Quick Free Money Available from Reselling eGift Cards at Newegg via Amex Express Checkout

HT: Miles to Memories


Update: Many, including Doctor of Credit and Dan's Deals, feel that the $10 statement credit will be triggered by any purchase, not just a purchase of $10 or more.  Based on the language of the T&C, most likely that is correct.  If you want to try it out, you can buy $0.99 Assassin's Creed codes (limit of 5 per 48 hrs) and hopefully pocket $9.01 per account.  HT - reader Corey





Here is a link to a bunch of $10 retail eGift cards being sold by newegg.  See this post where if you checkout with Amex Express checkout you will receive a 1 time $10 credit per account that you use.

Turnover Tuesdays - 2nd Straight Fail on the Sale + a Valuable Amazon Purchurser's Tool

Disclaimer: I receive a referral commission for the following link(s) and I greatly appreciate supporting the site: Amazon


For those who are not familiar, I started a series last week called Turnover Tuesdays.  Every Tuesday I would like to highlight one item that I have resold.  This will include profitable and non profitable sales.  I hope that there is always something to learn.

Week 1 - First attempt at reselling
Week 3 - My iPad mini collection
Week 4 - Bed Bath and Beyond
Week 5 - An iPad Idea for Your Staples Gift Card Collection



My first resale ever resulted in a loss of $10.68 and almost 1,600 southwest miles that have still yet to post.  The most significant point of this sale is actually something I learned to look out for when buying on Amazon.  You can scroll to the bottom for that.

Here comes my second sale:
