Yeah I sold my FE for £1800 this week on a online website in an auction with only £1 fees and shipping paid for and just purchased one for RRP. Made myself £400 off RRP now

i was told last week that mine was upgraded and supposed to ship by the end of that week. then was told that it was gonna be this week and i still havent got any shipping notification when this week is almost over. didnt get a queue update last friday either so it has to be somewhere waiting to be shipped out
The same as me except I'm 101 in the queue. And I ordered the ventus because it said stock will be available the week after (which was obviously a mistake) so it annoys me when I saw someone say 'people ordered the ventus because they want a budget card so we won't upgrade them to the higher editions', this just isn't the case.
I'm very tempted to just get a refund and wait until summer at this rate, although I'm so close that I don't know whether to risk it.
Edit : I ordered mine at 15:30 on release day and was position 288 to begin with, so they had a lot of orders in that 12 minute gap it seems, probably people like me who saw the 'in stock next week' message.

@Gibbo Any news if on Strix 3080's OC are coming in this week?
I second this. im 5 in queue. no info whatsoever on msi 3080 3x ventus. i opened a webnote over a week ago which was never answered @Gibbo
There have been a couple of Ventus updates recently...

Always worth using the search option to find posts by Gibbo or ScottiB in this thread.
As per several posts by Gibbo, don't count on any upgrades for 3080 orders any time soon if ever.
They have been able to upgrade some of the 3070 orders because there is better availability of stock, but that isn't the case for the 3080.

We are on hold. I wonder if we will be back in the queue... or at the end of it?
Same, though wasn't so lucky with the fees and shipping
The 3090FE seems like pretty good value, compared to the premium the AIB cards charge, though some of them probably have better cooling solutions and people could squeeze more performance out of them...

I'm going to bet zero movement on the Gigabyte Gaming OC queue today. No-one is going to cancel in front of 13....
Would love to be proven wrong though

I'm in the same boat, 9 days on from the 3070 Dual None OC to OC upgrade with no sign of shipping.
@Gibbo Do you have any update on shipping times as starting to think these cards have been lost somewhere in the warehouse.
Now I am concerned because my last email informed me that I was 5th in queue for the 3080 ventus...
Just double checked and I'm 4th
What do you mean on hold? I'm 4th in the queue. Do I not get a card when they arrive?

I think he is out of England and DPD have been very dodgy with deliveries crossing borders
