    Question NewEgg Banners and AMDMB stealing hexus money?

    Hi Guys, noticed the New Egg Banners - they're a good company but i didnt think they traded or shipped to the uk? Have they Expanded or is this simply a sign that the quality of Hexus has been noticed over in the american empire. If 'tis the Latter then - very well done !!

    Second - trying to find out the answer to the above question myself i clicked on the banner. Looking in the url i saw to my Horror -

    We spotted this too - but the trouble is the way their referer system works...

    I have passed this to the guy in charge of it

    We have tracking on it anyway

    Newegg is a great company if you live in the US, users at a forum I am a regular at use them a lot and they are highly recommended, but I have to say I was very suprised when I just spotted the banner as most of the Hexus users are from the UK and i'm pretty sure newegg does not ship to the UK and if they did it would not be worth it.

    Way back when I got my Radeon 8500 from New Egg, all things considered, currency conversion fee and shipping, I still saved over £120.00 at the time. It does help if you know somebody in The States though
