If this were in their policy, I would sort of agree. A return policy is not a warranty, and therefore a policy that disallowed returns after a major OS modification could potentially be reasonable.

The problem here is that Newegg is not stating this up front.

I've never had an issue with a mfg warranty in a case like this (most recommend not including the HD with returns anyway). I'm still a little confused as to why the customer didn't approach the mfg first.

> I don't think any Linux vendors(Dell, System76,etc) will happily accept returns after you installed Windows on it.

Citation, please? I am not aware of any other vendor with this limitation.
