Newegg is a leading online retailer specializing in computer hardware, consumer electronics, and technology products. Founded in 2001 by Fred Chang and headquartered in the City of Industry, California, the company has grown from a niche PC components seller into a comprehensive technology marketplace. Newegg serves customers across the globe and is particularly popular among PC builders, tech enthusiasts, and IT professionals.
The platform is renowned for its detailed product specifications, verified customer reviews, and competitive pricing on components such as CPUs, GPUs, motherboards, RAM, storage drives, and power supplies. Newegg's PC Builder tool allows customers to check component compatibility before purchasing, reducing the risk of incompatible parts. The company also operates Newegg Business, a dedicated B2B platform offering volume pricing and net payment terms for commercial customers.
Newegg frequently runs promotional events including its signature "Newegg Shuffle" for high-demand products and seasonal sales events. The Newegg Marketplace allows third-party sellers to list products alongside Newegg's own inventory, significantly expanding the available product selection. The company also offers Newegg Premier, a membership program providing free expedited shipping, extended return windows, and dedicated customer service.
