That is not Newegg's IP address:

  $ dig +short www.newegg.com
  204.14.213.185

  $ dig +short secure.newegg.com
  216.52.208.188

  $ dig +short newegg.com
  204.14.213.187
  216.52.208.187

Try putting "nameserver 8.8.8.8" (one of Google's public DNS servers) at the top of the name server list in "/etc/resolv.conf".  If that fixes it then the problem lies with the DNS servers you were previously using.
