Hi everyone, long time reader, first time complainer.
Just wondering what time pre-orders actually went live as I was under the misguided notion that it would be 5PM. I'm trying to gauge how far back in this queue I might be.
I randomly checked the site and made my pre-order for the 5900X at 15:53PM. No confirmation of shipping yet.
Also, under the giddy assumption that I got lucky and the blasted thing would ship immediately, I allowed myself to get gouged for the Saturday delivery. The point of this particular gripe is that, as others have expressed, with no availability and expected shipping information on the purchase page, I had no way of knowing that it was a pointless extra expense. Not a lot in the grand scheme, but annoying for the customer nonetheless.
I'm not familiar with DPD; does anyone know if Saturday delivery means they'll get it to me any weekday and Saturday, or just Saturday specifically (probably in 2021 at this rate).
