ASUS to Cut Motherboard Prices by 5-10%

[Gibbo]

Thanks for the post Gibbo and I fully understand the reasons, we all know on here that OCUK's prices can be a little higher than other e-tailers and does it put people off?? NO, like me and many others we come to you for your fantastic service, without doubt #1 in the UK.
So with that in mind and knowing that a new platform release will have delays and availability problems wouldn't it of been better to put an extra £10 on the board price at launch, you would still of sold out and your margins would have been higher enabling you to stick to the same price once availability etc had diminished, this in the customers viewpoint would look far better than an considerable increase, in the grand scheme of things a board increase of £25 is peanuts when your looking at at high end £1300+ X99 system(5960etc), but that is not the point!!

Our prices can also be a lot lower as well, we have many examples where this is the case too.

No one etailor can have the very best price on every item all the time.

Very true regarding prices and thanks for clearing up this Asus article, not good news but news regardless.

Prices and stock will always be a top choice but so far Ocuk simply has the bits and bobs I always need while others fail on this.
