Man if it really bases selections on previous Newegg purchases that is wack af. Wonder how far back the purchases go..

I like the idea of the shuffle, but I wish they would stop pairing junk motherboards from last gen with $2000+ GPUs.

Re: Newegg Shuffle Tuesday, May 18, 2021 10:09 PM (permalink)
i entered about 47 times so far and nothing. About mid way (after 20 or so entries) i read somewhere about higher chances if you are a Newegg customer with recent purchases. So i bought some RAM and a Be quiet cooler that i needed, and an office chair (it was a good deal and it's comfy). However, i still wasn't selected in the next 20 shuffles (including yesterday, and, most likely today). So i'm not sure that the theory of purchasing something to get a better chance is real...i doubt it.
PS: i also read that the sheer statiscal chances of winning a shuffle are like 1 in a million or so

I wouldn't be surprised to hear people creating hundreds of accounts to increase their odds.

I wonder how much is determined by their suppliers.  Most bundles are low volume parts from the same manufacturer.  My bet is that the majority of the bundles aren't not Newegg's decision.

Not sure if you meant to state a double negative, thereby actually saying that it is Newegg's decision on bundles.

In any case, I for one believe the bundles are absolutely at the discretion of Newegg.

Sorry about the bad grammar.  Meant to say they are not Newegg's decision.

Ita vs 100k people, so chances still low, but still there

Haven't scored anything from Newegg shuffle. I've been entering in shuffle since past two months but no luck. I just need a GPU to complete my build but they sell out almost instantly everywhere.

No Newegg luck for me either. They have been my go to source since Fry's started to decline a few years ago.

No luck here either.  Another day another shuffle and no movement in the EVGA queue.

That's a lot of EVGA RTX 3070s.  They seem to be the only AIB not massively inflating their prices on Newegg.

Definitely more in line with MSRP than Gygabyte or Zotec

I read the odds are really really low! and that's just a chance at winning to pay for overpriced products. However, I've been playing for months and still no luck.

I think of the shuffle as a "why not" enter, but I don't expect to win.  I got exited for them at first, but after about 50 "you weren't selected" emails, I try not to get my hopes up.

Feeling the same. Doesn't cost you anything to enter and it has become one of the things i do everyday without much thought of a possible win. Linda like Powerball and MegaMillions...but free to enter

Yeah, and you end up losing money if you win, not gaining.

Very accurate depiction of the sad feels when that email rolls in. I've got many of them. It's rough. But for some reason I keep throwing my hat in the ring, playing the free anti-lotto.

I won once out of about 50 tries. In the end didn't want what they were giving me. A 6700XT and a overpriced motherboard. After that I stopped just picking everything on the list.

Yeah, I've been entering when EVGA products come in for the past several weeks.  Even if it's a 3090, I'll throw my hat in even if it's more than I want to spend.  And since they come with PSUs (so far), and I'm planning a whole new build from scratch so it makes sense to get 2 products.  So far, nothing so I feel the pain, too.
