TIL That Newegg is a Chinese company.
> PC retailer Newegg’s stock price declined sharply last week after its majority owner disclosed that its chairman, He Zhitao, was reportedly detained by the Haibei Prefecture Supervisory Commission.
The article is a bit hard to make sense of, but the current majority owner is a conglomerate company (not a person ) and they released the news about the chairman being investigated.
Their stock price is already back to their last week level
Are you telling me they arrest corrupt executives in China? Sign me up for that shit how do we get that program here?
TIL that it still exists.
Thought they closed up shop ages ago.
wtf has been going on with this companies stock over the last 15 years?
I remember the cool video of their warehouse in California before the fall. It was cool automation
Sad to see. I built my first computer from parts ordered off the OG Newegg. Now I’ve heard its kind of a scam company, even if this company would tell you otherwise. Clearly something drastically changed along the way, because I have not heard good things for years now. Seems like the name is pretty tarnished now.
Operating normally, sure, just with a 17% discount on trust.
I’ve gotten some pretty decent MSI computers and laptops from them and their monitors are still solid
Haven’t thought about Newegg in years, will continue to forget they exist. Once a staple of enthusiast hardware needs is now no better than the scummier parts of Amazon (which under the hood are one in the same, really.)
So the company insist the owner is doing some purely personal corruption does not impact the company at all 😕
Considering how many scam shipments come from there, it’s not a surprise. They’ve been terrible since China bought them out years ago.
