Could NewEgg simply be wanting to escalate their appeal to a higher court, and thus have their eventual verdict carry more weight? This operates on the gamble that NewEgg believes they would be eventually triumphant and that the cost of a longer fight is less than the damages of a lower court. (Speculation, but perhaps reasonable, given NewEgg's previous victories.)

Don't forget going to a higher court will likely get the case out of that district's court.
