At least you're getting some kind of Eagle before 2021 mate ;)
 
they supposedly left HK last friday, heard this from a representative at inno but otherwise no no one at ocuk can which is kind of the issue
Annoying how they can't give a quick update. Surely they'd be aware if Inno had shipped.

I saw a post saying that they Apple had booked up all the shipment spaces... I don't know what to believe anymore.
 
I’m lucky that being down 700 quid doesn’t impact me but that isn’t the same for everyone here.

Its reasonable for some people to be upset more then others as not everyone will be in the same boat. No product and 700 quid down will annoy the best of us let’s be honest and more so when basic updates aren’t provided. Of course there are external factors outside of OCUK hands but honestly I think the best and easiest method is just a morning and evening daily updates even it’s it just “sorry we have no more information at the moment” it’s better then being left in the dark. And if there is an external reason to be blamed that is shared and it keeps everyone understanding and not directing angry at OCUK.

I would love my card, but sadly I think we will be awaiting along time before getting decent stock levels to please everyone. Sad times!
If being 700 down impacts then this is not the card those people should be looking at.

I would not say so, some people save up for the 2 years leading up to the new gen, and can afford it without an impact to their daily budget because of that, but it still makes them uneasy to be parted with their savings for nothing in return.
 
They just hang up on you at the best of times. If people bombard them they will turn off the phones lmao

Yes defo. none oc cards from any manufacterer are going to be much more rare than oc so if you get the chance to swap i'd take their arm off :p

I do hope that OCUK do the right thing and contact us non-OC guys to give us the option. Its clear that production on non-OC cards has come to a stop.

How am I still waiting LOL?
 
Things we do know:

1. England is FUBAR’d again and going back into lock down.
2. Christmas is rapidly approaching.
3. 3070’s are coming
4. New AMD stuff is coming
5. The worlds laziest designers at Apple have re-released the same phone they keep releasing and fan-boys will lap them up ( btw, i own an iphone so don’t get grumpy)
6. The UK is about to gum-up all imports from Europe ( which will impact on imports from the rest of the world ) because a lot of grumpy old men didn’t want Polish plumbers coming over and providing an excellent job at a great price.

All of these things will undoubtedly add to delays in getting pretty much anything delivered for at least the rest of this year as couriers will be really busy.

Things we don’t know:

1. how many cards OC have ordered
2. When OC are getting those cards
3. Why OC seem to be unwilling to provide straightforward English updates on stock levels and dates like others are
4. Why OC are so apocalyptically bad at communicating with people ( not a dig at our ferrari driving friend, I’m sure he’s not the only one that works at OC).
5. How OC can not know the exact number of cards being delivered ( it will 100% be in their order paperwork) and roughly when - give or take a week.
6. Why anyone in their right mind thinks Sam Smith sounds like anything other than a whiny teenager when he sings? Ok, that one may not be entirely relevant.

long and short of it, OC have our money, don’t really care how upset we all are and will send out cards as and when ( or if ) they ever get them. They are not crooks, as others have implied, but certainly aren’t coming across as terribly competent. So we all have 2 options; wait or don’t wait. Its extremely annoying but to paraphrase an orange brillo-pad “it is what it is”.

unlikely. Unfortunately competitors dont have thousands of people in their queue so they can do this. OCUK have thousands in oc and non oc queues. Its unfair to offer non-oc customers priority on an oc card at the detriment of others in the oc queue :(

Then they can just cancel and get a refund in that situation and wait for the cards to become readily available.

You think that's bad, my order time is 17th Sept 14:04 with payment clearing at 14:04:37. 4 minutes and 37 seconds after orders went live and I'm still waiting LOL. 6 and a half weeks is an actual joke.
 

I think I know which competitor which is being referenced and I want to say at one point all the gpus were discontinued on that competitors website and when they got stock in or actually had an estimate ship for when they got more they returned it.

So its not discontinued, just they don't know when they're getting more stock in and have unlisted it.
 
LOL, TUF non-OC has been marked as discontinued on competitor's website while OCUK is still selling it :D what a JOKE!
on another competitor they have marked the aorus master as discontinued. I think this just means don't hold your breath lmao :P

At some point they will show. We just don't know when "at some point" is right now :D

Unfortunately you backed the wrong horse but I totally understand your frustration.
