*** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

Do you know what will happen after 31st of December? Will we need to pay import taxes for something we bought months ago?

Import tax and custom charges are possible in the event of no deal.

The OCUK team informed me they just don't know if the order can be fulfilled and the cost of import taxes. They have zero information on what shipping outside the UK looks like until the government informs them.
 
hmm well, ive been without a 2070 super since 4th sept :( felt like a lost sheep idnt know what to do with myself as i couldnt play games , ive been on here and comps for the past 3 months everyday presing f5 in the hope my card would ship, but a friend came to the rescue and lent me his gtx 970 and honistly i dont know why i sold my 2070super and weather i actualy need a 3080 , the gtx 970 is playing my roblox flawlessly on high detail, might cancel the 3080

You bought an item from a UK store, you don't need to pay import duty on that (Overclockers may increase the price if they have to pay import duty but I'd imagine they already do as these cards come from China primarily).
 
Is there anyway to GET ON the pre-order list?

Here's my money - take it

Or better still, the pre-order cancellation list. Wow that sounds so crap, damn you data miners :D
 
Forget about Asus. I ordered TUF 3080 OC. I might get 3090 if I find any in stock (no palit)

6/10 Order placed
8/10 949
14/10 901
23/10 852
29/10 771
6/11 723
13/11 647
20/11 623
27/11 475
04/12 465

Fantastic insight, much appreciated. 3090 it is then I guess. Would rather not be waiting what could be another 2-3 months.
 
How do people feel about OCUK offering a next day PC with a 3000 series GPU in it?

that's kinda ** Please do not disguise swearing ** in my opinion

No, they actually said how many they had initially and stock was quite good. Just numbers of people storming them was orders of magnitude higher. You can search for older Gibo's post where he posted actual numbers.

Must be the first and last time he has ever mentioned actual figures and bet they were incorrect in any case as none of his vague descriptions of quantity match what is dispatched unless you discount at least 25% of the value.

If the numbers of stock available on 17th Sep were in any way above 500 total across all 3000 series, it makes the numbers of dispatched cards since initial stock an even worse state of affairs than it already looks ie 1500 in a bit over 2 months is pitiful.

Considering Competitor has dispatched considerably more in the same timeframe, OC need to take a serious look at their buying contacts and resources.

It's really crap and all these companies are doing giveaways for these cards in competitions etc whilst at the same time not giving people what they paid for months ago is crap too. What a depressing year.

Gigabyte Eagle 3080 now position 7 after last Q update. was 11 the week before. Has anyone actually received any Gigabyte Eagles in the last 3 weeks? Im assuming if you did you wouldnt still be on here! :( oh how i envy you.

If you go back through the forum someone confirmed the card shipped last week. But far more importantly Scott went through the process of checking shipments and there are 22 Eagles due this week, I'm high 20's :(, but you should get your card this or next week by the sounds of that :)
 
Ordered a 3080 aorus xtreme from the world's largest online retailer on nov 18th. Just got an email today saying delivery date is Friday. I've seen the same card for sale on the same site various times since I purchased and it has not been coming up on any of the stock alerts
 
I bought an Inno3D card (3080 x3) and haven’t heard about an Inno3D update for a few weeks now. Do these cards even exist? I’m mid twenties in the queue. Will I retire before I get a card?

(Btw, I know this isn’t OC fault, they’re trying hard to get stock but manufacturers simply aren’t sending the UK, I just want them to be realistic and transparent about what’s happening and when we can except the products that we’ve paid for).
