*** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3090 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***
- Thread starter Feek
- Start date
I was wondering - how do you get access to the members market if you want to sell something?
I think it's based on post count or somesuch
I have a monitor I'd much rather try and sell here than on ebay but I still don't have access
Same - have a Asus 2080Ti I want to sell and would prefer to sell to someone here than on the 'bay...
Based on what? A lot of the updates don't get posted until literally the day before the stock arrives
Based on here and 3 other sites who do give the customer advanced orders.
Other shops have 3090 EVGA\MSI and another brand coming in this week.
Just got to do your home work.
Have these sites had the exact same deliveries as OCUK so far? I really don't want to do any more work than I do already
I mean at least one other site with a big table has it as TBC and a post above the table from yesterday saying they are working to confirm the TBCs for this week.
"Of course, very popular cards from the bigger brands such as Asus, EVGA, Gigabyte and MSI will take longer for backorders to be fulfilled and presently those manufacturers cannot give us shipping info far enough in advance to know if they can clear all our backorders off in 2020"

Well that's crap.

Well that's crap.
It literally just means that cards that had more orders will be harder to clear the backlog of. This isn't news
And yet you can still preorder

Yeah I think they should probably just close pre orders once they reach a certain amount. So keep it open for less popular cards but stop taking preorders for the more popular.
I mean OC say they have fulfilled 500 3080’s the 3080 Strix oc wait list on its own is at least 1000 and the 3090 Strix oc is at least 500 so their delivered numbers are drops in a ocean.
If you do give them your money there's no pretense that there's no supply issue. It's 100% on you
True it doesn't help anyone, but the way you say "well that's crap" sounds like it's some sort of revelation

I get what your saying but I ordered on launch knowing it was going to be a wait as it was already known Asus was late to the party but I didn't realise it would be THIS long when I ordered.
If you ordered after launch then yeah you probably already knew, especially if you read how many roughly were on a list on here something like the 3090 Strix OC was in the 500's before any had been sent.
I think when there's possibly a 3 month wait for someone to receive a product that they pay for today and there's no obvious communication or warning when they place said order then we are bordering on some dodgy possibly unethical business practices here. Not everyone frequents the OC forums, many people just order from the website in good faith, as far as I know there are no warnings there saying you will be looking at a very long wait.
Personally, I'm number 2 for the 3090 Strix so mine will be here sooner than most. I just feel sorry for the poor people ordering today or recently.
