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

That's why the FE cards are the ones to buy as they can't overcharge. Kinda feel the OC, extreme etc cards aren't worth the extra cost+ripoff pricing.
 
Oh yeah don't get me started on the price increase.


I had it in my basket when I tried to checkout kicked off site, went to checkout again and it had shot right up in price then got kicked out over and over
Honestly I should have just taken it as a sign to move on then . But then I got a call saying he still had it on screen for MSRP so I caved in
 
The updates ( or lack of ) are literally what's making the blood boil. It's so frustrating. I know nobody could have foreseen this but just ignoring your customers is just wrong .

It is no amount of haribo will sweeten me up . I'm done. I'm not blaming them for Nvidia or MSI's problem . But I will hold them to lack of care and not getting other stock in while competitors can . Oc need a shuffle in staff and the only decent one that I've heard in the last 2 months is Scotti I'm sure there is more but some need to get sacked

Nvidia have a lot to answer for. But I've seen @ScottiB has been trying to reply. but am I right in thinking this isn't his department to manage? Isn't he doing it because the other person isnt even replying to anything?
 
Its been a long wait an it shows no signs of ending. Im like 689 in que now and that movement the past 3 odd weeks just seems to be cancellations.

I dont blame gibbo at all though tbf, as yes be isnt vocal on here but it isnt his fault that this has come just as his moving home. The company should have had more than one person in charge of updates. An a arguement could be made that his not got tied up reasuring us so he could spend more time fighting for more GPU's.

That said if I dont get watchdogs or some free game with my card im gonna be ******

@Gibbo

Your last update was at 14:47 on 30/11/2020
"A small amount of Palit 3080 Gaming Pro and Gaming Pro OC are due to arrive later this week."


So are we all to understand that since then, over a week ago, you have had nothing since and there is nothing due in at all?

TBF Fella, a post even telling us that is better than silence

acording to Scott, they have a shipment coming in from the big 4 but he didnt says how much or when it was due, its both his and gibbs day off today so hopefully we get a update tomorrow fingers crossed
 
They have your money, sadly that is all that seems to matter in my view. This is surely confirmed by the fact so many orders were taken, even although no stock was present or looking likely to arrive in the near future. Add the lack of updates, even if just a holding update and confirms it 100% for me - of course just my opinion as I am entitled to.

Some people complaining and cancelling will not be much in the scheme of things, as most will just put up with it and get their card at some point and OCUK will get far more orders and therefore far more income than they would have got if they had stopped taking orders.

As it stands, from what we have seen other suppliers seem to have far better stock supply coming in.

Talk is cheap when it comes to saying you are the biggest, have great ties with manufacturers etc - the proof is in the pudding as they say!

You have the option to cancel, and that is what I did. I then sourced a card elsewhere, took a bit of work but is possible. At least I was in control of when it would arrive, compared to having no idea and just getting frustrated.

Has been a hard year, and of course the perfect excuse with Covid etc. Sadly the worst part of this is that the staff who are having to deal with the web notes, phone calls and angry customers are the ones who are having a hard time - those with the increased income stream have zero impact of this - just increased income and some bad review which Covid is the perfect excuse for.

Just my view, but you do have a choice here.
