That thought had crossed my mind, hopefully not though.

That is not 100% correct, cases and monitors can be shipped without an outer box but I think that is reasonable

They don't count, they always ship like that from every supplier I've ever used, I meant in relation to anything that is reasonable to box like motherboards, GPUs etc...
Its with DPD, so even if label was faulty, they know where it came from, so why not return it to OC, if they delivered to wrong address, they should know where this is and go get it back.
Sounds very dodgy otherwise.
One or two received them in just the ASUS outer box two days ago from OC I believe, he posted about it as he thought it a bit lacking as anybody could see what it contained and half inch it.

Really, that's a shock if true, never happened before, so not sure what's happened there?

I'm in a discord for stock updates and from what I've seen Germans are getting a lot of cards in different websites...
This is what happens when Argentina doesn't get enough 3080's.
Theres a number for France as well as the odd UK one. I can't say which competitor they are for obvious reasons but its all versions of the same one and.... I've yet to see one that actually has anything in stock despite what the update says. The one that came closest said "Delivery expected in 1 - 3 months" which isn't exactly what I'd describe as "in stock".
All the ones that have come up have been scalper prices
@Illuminist Seen this coming since STUDENTS came back
So thats OCUK closed @Gibbo ??
Thinking now ESSENTIAL shops and OCUK is essential to provide equipment for working from Home
Don't care! This time I have enough champagne in the house to see me through to the new year and beyond!
Here is the list from last time, and storage and distribution facilities are allowed to remain open meaning that mail orders can be fulfilled. The OC shop I believe has not re-opened since the first lockdown.

Thats not true, just got my monitor from ocuk a few weeks back, no outer box just the original retail box with a delivery sticker on it.

Things will take longer but doubtfull OC would fully close. Non contact delivery wont change but staffing may which could cause delays.
Still. With the few cards that currently ship each week. im sure gibbo could take them into stock, pack and send them himself between calls to suppliers- He would then be in a position to know everything and could give the guys who have their cash held here some kind of meaningful update
Didn't close last time don't see why it should close this time? Shop was closed to the street but online business continued as before as did other online retailers. If anything the next lockdown looks much looser than the last i.e. schools unis etc staying open.
I didn't get one. I'll tell you something better. Back in the 1080 launch days, I didn't get one with my evga 1080 either.Where did they put your Haribo?
That's pretty rough, that.
I would send it back if I were you, abysmal service, What's it all coming to if they can't be arsed to put the Harribo in

I am at 1110 as of last Wednesday. Moved 55 places in 5 days probably due to cancellations.
I would appreciate discreet packaging for my expensive electronics, including monitors and certainly graphics cards.
