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

90pc MSI 3080 Gaming X Trio have been upgraded to the MSI 3080 Suprim card.

Does anyone know what it's meant by upgraded? who exactly gets the upgrades? i'm not sure i follow how this is done. I don't know if this has been explained before.

The list of banned practices includes the following:
  • Bait advertising Luring the consumer with attractive advertising around special prices when the trader knows that he cannot offer that product, or only has a few in stock at that price.
  • Bait and switch Promoting one product with the intention of selling you something else
  • Limited offers Falsely stating that a product will only be available for a very limited time, or that it will only be available on particular terms for a very limited time, in order to elicit an immediate decision and deprive consumers of sufficient opportunity or time to make an informed choice.

OK, I'm not going to get into a discussion about regulations that you don't appear to fully grasp the intention of, apart from to state that we have done absolutely none of these.

However, since you feel that you have been a victim of these practices I'll refer you to your right to redress, specifically you...

I'll send you a forum PM now and if you reply to me with your name and your order number, I'll cancel your order and issue you a full refund immediately. That way you don't feel further burdened by your choice to place your order with us.

No, I believe you go to the front but into a separate queue for people waiting on RMAs. Gibbo sometimes notes he puts some stock aside for RMAs.

Yeah, I got clarification to that effect today when I queried my Zotac RMA (so very frustrating something as simple as shoddy fans...). Course near front of queue or not doesn't help much when no stock is coming in at all but hey ho is what it is. Would like my PC back up and running tho.
 
@MasterFaustino,@Gibbo posted the other day supplier is expecting Palit stock, imagine find out numbers and models due in early next week, and then has to be shipped to OC and booked in, not for at least a week or two i'd imagine.
 
Gibbo said:
We have been told by all vendors shipments on 3080 this week and next will be close to zero. On Palit we may see upto 5-10 units in next week the majority of incoming stock at the moment is 3090s and 3070s.

Awww unlucky, I was starting to be hopeful that there would be a nice 3080 delivery this month but hey maybe there could be hope
 
Wait a minute!!!
So the 3080 Ventus guys are NOT being upgraded to SUPRIM because they "clearly wanted a budget card" Yet yesterday you have upgraded a bunch of 3090 Ventus orders to SUPRIM!?

Yet again the 3080 Ventus queue hasnt moved at all and the only movement for several months appears to have been cancellations and yet the 3090 Ventus gets upgraded to SUPRIM but screw the 3080 buyers!? This is unbelievable

Gibbo said:
All those who ordered an MSI 3090 Ventus have been upgraded to an MSI 3090 Suprim free of charge.

Gibbo said:
Logic is used, people who ordered Ventus were clearly looking for a more budget-conscious version of the 3080 hence ordering a Ventus and not a Gaming Trio. As such as the Suprim is a high-end OC part and as we have far more back orders on Gaming Trio any upgrades to a Suprim will be for those who ordered Gaming Trio,

Well went down a whole 1 place this week! Asus tuf 3080 OC ordered 17oct 17:57pm now 215 :eek: the saga continues, thought it might have got better by now but sorely disappointed but understand its nvidia that needs a good boot up the jacksy! terrible company. they make good gfx cards but unfortunately don't know how to treat their customers and also they don't understand numbers!! to get this so catastrophically wrong requires a special group of idiots to work together!! at the right time and moment!

Same on the Ventus Queue, I mean at least its more then its been for over a month, at this rate (1 place over the past month) should maybe get the card in 9 years 5 months? Hard to be optimistic at this point I can't lie.
 
Difference in price between
3090 Ventus & SUPRIM: £220
3080 Ventus & SUPRIM: £240

Yet the 3080 guys are BUDGET so no upgrade but those 3090s.... upgrade them all free of charge.
Come on guys wtf is going on here?! Il pay the extra £20 if thats the issue :rolleyes:

just crazy isn't it ! I'm a patient person but the incompetence is epic, they released cards that were more powerful than 2080ti's and half the price! what sort of demand did they think they were going to have? the electronics industry needs to learn a big lesson about supply and demand and this should never happen again in this day and age! - I do like a rant but all done now:)
