Got my codes in about 30 minutes...

I picked up two codes even though New Egg charges tax on digital items in TN. There are a couple XBLA games currently on sale that I want to pick up so not a bad deal.

Fellaz don't panic. It took a while for them to email the codes.If by any chance you didn't receive any email with the codes, they will be in your "recent orders" list right next to the product listing,once they thru charging your CC.

Hey guys, in my instance they came half an hour after payment was verified. If you can, search your order status and it should be there if you didn't get an email, but was supposed to. If it took money for the order and did not send you a verification email, you should contact newegg support. Again, thanks for all the support on my first ever topic!

My GS charges tax on them too... :/

Also, when I bought a year of XBL from Newegg it took maybe an hour to get the code.

Is it just me or is Newegg.com not working? My internet is working everywhere but Newegg, it's pissing me off right now because I'm trying to see when they shipped an order of mine.

$2.25 savings is not much, but it's better than nothing, I suppose.

Thanks OP.

Yeah for some damn reason a made a mistake without paying any attention,thought these were 2000pts for $19.99 so I was like that's a good deal for $12. Grabbed 2.

You take any savings you can with MS Points. Besides, the savings is basically the price of one of the Model 2 Fighters this week so... that's a free game essentially.

In for the limit of 2. Thanks, OP. Sales on these darn things are few and far between.

Interestingly, I had a reply ready-to-go yesterday to remind everyone about the Points & Subscriptions "watercooler" thread that I try to keep updated, yet it seems to have disappeared

Also, it's been nearly-24 hours since I placed an order and NewEgg says it's currently "packaging" my codes; how exactly does one do this with a pair of digital items??

Process Info Status: Packaging - Your payment has been successfully processed and has passed Order Verification. Products are being collected in the warehouse and boxed for shipment or pick up. Please note that you may no longer make changes to your order. No Memo in SO#xxxxxxxxx

^Lol

UPDATE: Apparently "Packaging" a digital code is the equivalant of opening an email form because two minutes after posting, I got my codes. Oh, timing, you're so silly.
