Are these still on track for arriving next week?
i really doubt it. Asus UK don't have an ETA on when they are expecting a sample in, so i cant imagine actual retail stock will be ahead of that!
Nooooooooooooooooooooo
I would edit out that link before you get a holiday
Sorry, I didn't realise it wasn't allowed, I have removed it now. I'm not interested in buying from them, I was just wondering how they had it in stock so fast. Can you still mention shops by their name?

I don't think this monitor will be available until first week in May at the earliest
Does their stance even matter though? I bought a Benq 1440p screen recently from another site and it has less backlight bleed than the monitor in your screenshot but i'm still going to return it and get a replacement because i still think its at an unacceptable level.
Whether or not the site would agree that the monitor has a fault is almost a moot point since i'm within my rights to return it for any reason I like. Is the same not true with OCUK?
If ocuk find that to be within acceptable levels then it means you have to return the monitor under CCR or whatever the new term is but this will be at your own cost and you will have to arrange the shipping/courier yourself too, which can be a right faff and expensive if you have to do it more than once. Also, if you go down the CCR route, you have to wait until you get your refund (or you could just go ahead with another order if you don't mind a sizeable lump sum missing from your account 
). Where as if it is just a RMA (under 14 days), ocuk arrange for dpd to collect the monitor, test it themselves and if they decide that isn't acceptable, then they send a new monitor out straight away so you don't have to wait around for 3+ days. If it is over 14 days, then they try to repair the monitor first.

Are we working on the assumption that this monitor wont be in stock on the stated date?
OCUK and Asus seem to be pretty quiet on the subject, please correct me if im wrg...
Very eager to pull the trigger on this but would like some solid information before taking the plunge

I've had no firm ideas from Asus on dates, and no idea yet of when a sample might arrive with them. so i can't imagine retail stock will arrive before that
Same here. Trying to decide on a build for a new computer and can't decide whether to order what's in my basked and just hope it's released soon or to find an alternative monitor and potentially change the GPU.
