Honestly can't believe a) how greedy OCUK have been in taking irresponsible amounts of preorders for the 3080 and b) how poor their communication is, especially considering the excellent and transparent handling of the stock situations by other competitors.
Once I cancelled my preorder from OCUK I found a small Jurassic based company who were not only friendly, but their stock estimates were accurate, they are flexible for you to jump around the brands if others come into stock, and they have not taken ridiculous levels of orders so the queue is perfectly reasonable. In the end though, I managed to nab an FE yesterday from (the also excellent communicating) sc @ n who are obviously a far more meaningful partner to Nvidia as THEY were chosen to handle the FE sales! The absolute BS about OCUK being a preferred and biggest partner is incredible.
Yes, supply has been difficult for everyone, but the way OCUK have handled this has been the worst I've ever experienced from a customer service standpoint and means they have lost one more customer for good and it's back to the main competitor for me!
