No chance for 150£. Its around 200-250 atm if not more. Imo

Ok Cheers Gibbo , I can total understand that, It does suck from a customer point of view thou but when a product gets so much praise its no surprise.

Yes because they now cost us £308 +VAT to buy now as the distributors who have stock are gouging the price, which is fair enough those guys normally make 0.5-1% margin on a processor, so though I do not agree with them charging me more, I fully understand why they take the opportunity to make more money at any opportunity they can.

As such I am not going to make a loss, but to be blunt we are making zero, our business cost us 4% in operations if you pay by credit, amazon or paypal, only debit cost us less due to much lower merchant fee. As such they cost us £308, we charge you £316.66, after any credit card fee's we pay, we break even, I am being more than reasonable with price but were not a charity and nothing is free in life, except the Haribo. :D


Thanks for clearing that up its nice to be told why :)

Just a quick one if my friend orders today when would he be a likely to get i7 8700k ? Do you have enough stock for 1st Nov delivery.
