** BLACK FRIDAY / CYBER MONDAY STARTS AROUND 9AM THURSDAY!! **
- Thread starter Gibbo
- Start date
Same thing there....
I had around 3.8k to spend but there were no real deals for me.
I was looking for Platinum/Titanium PSUS, MOBO's GPU's, PCI SSD's,
Had to buy something from competitors....
Kinda sad cuz OcUK are my all time favorite..
Still thinking of 2x 980Ti Lightning, but Coil Whine scares me (Have sent 6 980Ti's back to sellers for that reason) plus no WC Block yet
But no problem, saved money is not the worst scenario
OcUK You Still are the best!

Swings and roundabouts guys.

The thing with OcUK is, can you find stuff cheaper elsewhere? often yes. However OcUK have the buying power to ensure they have items which are in stock for these kind of sales.
Look at the amount of the people who jumped for the amazing EVGA deal that was listed elsewhere. And look how that retailer baited people in with stock levels which just didnt reflect the reality of what they held. So much so that they had to issue emails to people saying they couldnt fulfil their order and are now on waiting lists.
Id rather spend a little more to guarantee i get my product when it says "in stock", know the service of OcUK and value a bit of loyalty over waiting weeks for an item which i bought on black friday to actually be in stock.

Spot on quote, shop around.
OcUK has some of the best deals, so do some competitors, but no one single reseller is better than everyone else on price.
OcUK's 390's deals were unbeatable but even better we have well over 500 of them which meant everybody got one and our website is also done very well at keep stock status correct even during the mad rushes.
Our 8 Pack bundle absolute smash hit, but hey at nearly £300 of the regular price no wonder, it is like getting the CPU for FREE.
Our 32GB DDR4 Quad kit on the homepage for £139.99 is selling like crazy.
Then the major surprise our DELL G-SYNC, we knew it would be popular, but wow over 300 sold now.
Were doing around 1million GBP revenue per day at the moment, way way above normal business levels and even our expected forecast for Black Friday.
Our deals have being very well received, the numbers are proof of that and what most of our customers realise is our level of service is the best out there.
True, we are also often the cheapest on certain items as well, we even have several US customers buying from us, so it says something when USA customers are buying from us because typically US prices are better.
Also on one of our items which did over-sell so fast the AOC 25" monitor which again we destroyed competition on, like £50 cheaper than anywhere else on a £200 monitor is an achievement, but even better we fulfilled those over-sold orders as we got AOC to support the additional sales.

Good thing with OcUk is the reliable stock control. If it says x amount in stock then you can guarantee it is in stock!! Some places have terrible stock control!

Some awesome deals on the site this year! .
I was wondering, do Amazon Payments tend to get processed fairly fast? I ordered myself a Corsair K70 RGB yesterday, just before 9am... but I haven't received any dispatch information D: just an order confirmation

same, don't think it's anything to do with payment, because I used debit card not amazon.
Our warehouse is hammered, they are working all day today and tomorrow to get people's orders out to them.

One thing I can get with you guys, above all else, is peace of mind that if something does go wrong or an RMA needed down the line with something faulty - you just don't mess about. I can't get that with any of your competitors, being completely honest.
I don't mind paying the little extra for that peace of mind, even if the Sterling to Euro exchange rate is woeful at the moment.
So in that regards, much respect due and never change that service please, it puts you head and shoulders above the rest (my opinion anyway).

Must have missed the 750W and 1000W platinum deals then... Or were you looking higher/lower? Impossible to cover everyone.

I was probably to late for party
Can not sit by monitor waiting, started searching after my day business.
I still remember buying Two Antec High Current Pro's 1300W on daily deal for 149 pounds each - Epic
You Always do Amaizing offers!
Currently i was after EVGA/SuperFlower 1600w Platinum/Titanium. Seasonic 1200w paltinum. I just noticed that they are on Low stock anyway and you can't really do deal on those
Still can not put my mind together about 980Ti lightnings.....

I'm intrigued, Gibbo, I think you should take some photos of the empty warehouse shelves after this weekend. 
Surely there are a few?!
