Newegg is now an amazon-style marketplace, with stuff they sell mixed in to the rest same as how AmazonBasics is mixed in to the rest.

Newegg is a shadow of its former self, but it is still possible to turn the 'sold my newegg' knob on relatively easily. It seems impossible to do that with Amazon. Walmart online you can do it but you'll have to watch it like a hawk as it gets aggressively disabled again.

newegg used to be the place to get good stuff, too. i'd go to read the reviews even if it was on sale at microcenter or amazon. more often than not bought stuff there too.

without good reviews and insight it's just amazon with higher pricing.
