That's the whole idea of "a clue"

 

[muon]

Just has this from one place

"we are awaiting a credit back from HP for the price we've paid for stock. Once this is received the goods can be lowered to the new price"

Tell em HP are good for it.

Just give a clue, it's fine.

A big orange electronic shop has removed their stock completely, they had 19 32GB and 10 16GB....all gone.

 

[Cosimo]

No wonder there aren't any for anyone else...

Don't blame me, everyone here was reserving lots of them last night.

I refer thee all to my earlier post:
Ok, so what's the odds the delay is because they're working out what price they can charge in ripoff britain. So $99 in the US, thats £60. So they'll probably charge us nearly triple at £150 or something

To be honest that is the case for all resellers I assume.

Too boring
will a q6600 bottle neck 560ti ?

I currently have one reserved at Argos, unfortunately I'm thinking if the price goes down between now and thursday when it is supposed to be in stock it will go "missing"... Haven't been able to order one for my dad yet who has atually been wanting one for a while...

A friend just called HP:

"they said due to the extreme success in the states
they are revising their pricing policy
its going to happen in 1 hour!
he said prices will be revised between 4.30 and 5pm
today!
BUT also that hp may charge higher prices here in the uk than anywhere else....."

As expected TBH, we ALWAYS have to pay more in UK

 

[DarkShadow]

Just wondering really. I've got a few reserved but not holding any hopes up. So I may retire!

 

[lay-z-boy]

Just rip us off and give every other country a great deal. Fantastic.

*Shock as the UK is apparently going to get shafted*
