AMD 9800X3D ETA OFFICIAL THREAD

I don't mean to sound judgemental but is it common for people to use finance to buy computer parts these days?
I've spent a lot the last couple of weeks getting parts for my new build (finally going am5) with money a bit tight at the moment after doing that, I had to use finance to make sure I got the 9800x3d, which is all I'm waiting for to build it.
 
Hi there

As promised the 122 due today arrived a few hours ago and these started to ship hour or so ago with more to go.

Due another 40 next week also.
How many units do you need now before all preorders are cleared? just wondering when I might be able to place an order. Thanks for the updates definitely want to purchase mine through OC

It used to be a thing upto a couple of years ago because the rates were so low (which is understandable, if you couldn't get a fee-free CC), but you really gotta have a screw loose to pay what passes for a finance rate these days!!!

Not necessarily, I had mine on 12months pay later, which means I pay no interest if I clear the cost of the cpu in 12 months.
 
Does your order status change when it's shipping? My confirmation was 14:32 and I haven't had any emails yet, but I did get shipping via Royal Mail so I won't get the DPD notifications. I'm seeing people with shipping notices who ordered after me and I'm getting twitchy.
