how long should i wait to apply for Amex Everyday Card again?

Congrats on the $1K....... 

This is a borderline approval for Amex.... Try to resist the urge to app for another Amex..... So you went for the ED and they approved... did you get a bonus option with the approval?  Sometimes when it's a borderline approval they'll toss the bonus and 0% period off the table.  Either wat good job on waiting it out and putting your toes in the water again today proved to be just enough!!!

looks like I did get one of 0% APR for 12 months and i believe because I did it through the offer on checkout through newegg.com I get 1 year newegg premier and 25 dollars back on first purchase!

I didn't realize you could apply for AMEX through NewEgg.

Yeah there was an offer on the checkout page, but i have to wait till i activate the card to make the purchase because it will limit off 500 until i activate the card!

I'm thinking you got approved for a NewEgg personal line and not an AMEX.  I know Amazon has a page where you can get sign up bonuses like a $50 amazon gift card if you apply from that page but, amex doesn't usually have app pages through other places unless it's a partner site like SPG, Delta, etc.  I guess you'll know for sure when it shows up and you register it.

It is an Amex because I was sent to Amex.com and I already have a Newegg Store Card. I also got and email welcoming me to Amex also.

Well then you're all good!  Now you have a good 6-12 months of gardening to do while thinking of which card will be your next target.  As your EX score goes up you'll see better things coming your way with Amex.  If you go over 700 in the next 60 days then there's a good chance you'll get approved for the 3X CLI bringing it up to $3K with them.  Then 6 months later if things are still going up you might be able to crack $10K on that increase.

That's what I plan on doing and hopefully will get some better limits on this card and a few of my other cards which will be really nice too!
