** NEW LG MONITORS - INCLUDING 2 EXCLUSIVE TO OCUK!!! **

[NikTheSHNIK]

Hi all,

I've spent this morning setting up some new LG monitors for pre-order on OCUK. Two of which will be UK exclusives at OCUK!

The two exclusives will be landing at OCUK around the 16th July (27GL850) and 13th August (34GL750). Stock is fairly limited so pre-order soon to guarantee one at launch. Second waves of stock should be around a month after each date.

Check out the exclusives and the other LG monitors added to the range below!

Just placed my order earlier for the 27GL850, does that mean if stock lands on the 16th I would get it on the 17th?

Yes, as long as you are mainland UK but those dates aren't firm yet.

Once I have a date firmed up I'll post it here

Well that's mucked up my plans.... I've been saving 'rainforest' vouchers people have given me for gifts up and got a buyer lined up to buy my old monitor, all especially for the 27GL850 and now it's exclusive .

I know you accept amazon payments as a payment option, but that doesn't work with gift vouchers. Wish you sold your gift vouchers on their store as you have a storefront over there, gonna be hard trying to shift £300 vouchers, to a friend. Anyone got any other ideas, I would normally just wack it on my credit card, but it's not a purchase a I can justify without using the gift card balance.

I'll ask sales if there is anything they can do but I can't promise anything.

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

Thanks, why would the ruin such a good monitor which such a stupid move. For me that's gone from a must buy to a complete turn off. Same for the LG 34GL750-B 34 the price is far better then I expected but the curve has completely put me off it.

If you blow hot air from it from a hair dryer should come off leaving no residue

27GL850-B

can be ordererd from Germany?

It's UK Exclusive to Overclockers UK. Edited the post to reflect it.

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

UPDATE

27GL850 should be in stock next week.

34GL750 August

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

Im waiting on reviews for the 27GL850 , had my eye on it for a while now and want to make sure its a good un.

TFT Central should have a review up possibly next week but probably the week after.

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

ow, now you're committing me to some pretty fast reviewing i will work hard to get the review completed and up as quickly as possible, but will depend on the date it arrives with me of course, and will need some time to get all the testing done. 2 weeks is my norm, among everything else but will keep everyone posted and if i can do it quicker, i will

HAHA I thought you'd like that!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

haha yeah cheers

right everyone, Nik said if you order it today he will hand-deliver them to you yesterday

(i am of course joking)

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

They said that they will have the monitor next week, not the review. We'll need to wait for that.

I know, I was just trying to wind up @Baddass

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

@NikTheSHNIK What are the current stock levels like for pre-orders? I assume they are still due next week?

Now all allocated! Stock ETA unchanged.

@NikTheSHNIK I gather Daniel has now left LG, can you possibly get his replacement to register on this forum when he/she can at all? It was quite handy having an LG rep here for the odd bit of useful info

thanks

Already done. Just waiting on IT to upgrade her account - @Alice Gibbs!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

@NikTheSHNIK Can I confirm my order will be covered you need me to trust you the order no?

Unless you ordered today you are OK!

Any timeline on the second set of stock?
I am still thinking about the 27" IPS 144Hz monitor.

Not yet @Alice Gibbs may have more info!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

This morning when I posted the ETA was unchanged. Sadly speaking to Alice this afternoon the ETA has changed

Unfortunately these things happen sometime with air and ship-freight. There is a myriad of reasons that things can be delayed which are unfortunately out of OCUK hands.

If anybody wishes to cancel their pre-order then please contact sales who will process that for you.

As Alice says current ETA is w/c 29th July. Fingers crossed there are no more delays!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

@NikTheSHNIK, am I in the first wave of stock? If not, am I looking at the 29th of August or later for the second batch?

Regards

What date did you order on?

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

The hubs are in the Netherlands for shipping companys bringing in freight over the water. Not surprising really that those geographically closest with no transport bottlenecks, like more ports/airports or swapping the goods between freight companies, see their stock first.

That mainland Europe have them now is a great sign they'll be with us next week!

The ETA I've had hasn't changed since the last update from LG. So fingers crossed they are on the water to us.

@Alice Gibbs may have more info than me!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

I was told Monday by staff that they would be here this week also Alice said they have landed in the UK

Good news then, won't be long!

I'll chase the distributor and make sure they ship them to us as soon as they receive them!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

@NikTheSHNIK Did you manage to get in touch with the distributor? Just curious whether there's a chance we could actually get our monitors this week.

At 14:51 he told me "Nothing has landed yet"

I requested a priority booking slot at their end and that he keeps an eye out and ships them his end ASAP!

Our Goods In guys know to watch for the stock and book them in as soon as they arrive.

As seems to be so often the case, in the modern era, our fortunes are in the hands of couriers!

I would ask everyone to be patient as its out of our hands for now, but DAMN, if I had one of these badboys pre-ordered I'd be excited too!

Can't say I share your same pessimism, but seeing as my graphics card got delayed too the wait has been easier on me. With Dan he did used to say it would take up to a week from when it arrived at their warehouse to get through distributors to reach OcUK, so I can't see it reaching OcUK later than Monday next week.

The LG warehouse is in The Netherlands, or at least mainland Europe AFAIK. So if they've been arriving at EU resellers earlier this week... there is a chance!

And we still.dont know the quantity coming, or, the amount of pre-orders, or, when the next batch will come either!?

The quantity coming is not enough to fulfill all pre-orders. If you pre-ordered on the 11th July or before you should receive one in the first batch!

Everyone else currently with a pre-order will be fulfilled when the next production run lands, ETA: September.

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

Thanks Nik!
Would you be able to explain what you mean by "priority booking slot"? And what sort of time frame are we looking at between being shipped from the distributor to being sent out from OcUK?

Distributors, like ourselves, have multiple shipments arriving daily from different vendors, who use different couriers. When they deliver it's X boxes or X pallets of goods. These boxes or pallets need to be broken down and each item counted and given a unique identifier before it is "booked in" to the inventory. We accept X boxes or X pallets and then book the stock in in turn, usually by date received but each SKU could be prioritised due to pre-orders, value etc.

By requesting a priority booking slot I'm hoping this SKU can jump the queue!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

Any updates today?

Haven't heard anything from disty or vendor today.

If they do land with us tomorrow I'll ask sales to upgrade all the orders to Saturday delivery for free.

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

Ahoy there. I'm wondering - if I preorder now, how likely is it I'll actually get a monitor in the "second wave" delivery come September-ish? Don't want to tie up 400+ quid if I end up just waiting until they're in regular supply anyway.

All being well, and the next wave is what is promised numbers wise, we'll have enough to cover.

Also best to get your pre-order on sooner rather than later. If the dollar drops much further I'll have to increase the price.

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

WOAH, this thread has gone crazy!

First I'd like to apologise on behalf of OCUK and LG for anyone whose expectations haven't been met, and we will always try to learn and improve to deliver the best customer service possible.

Then I'd like to remind everyone to be courteous on our forums, that we are all trying our best, for you guys and that we try to keep you as informed as we can. That includes @Alice Gibbs from LG, as well as OCUK staff.

In this instance there was a delay in transit to the EU, and at the UK distributor, which meant the ETA given initially wasn't met. I can assure you that at every stage LG and OCUK tried to speed things up as much as we could.

The first tranche of stock has now been shipped and I hope all the early pre-order guys really enjoy this monitor and it lives up to the hype! Please let us know your feedback!

I don't know why the first quantity of stock into the UK/EU was so small. I can only imagine they had to satisfy all territories with what they could produce in their initial run. The availability of the panel, I'd hope, should pick up moving forward. We have hundreds more on back order with LG.

Everyone else currently with a pre-order, I'll find out an update when I get back from annual leave next week (camping in N. Wales with the wife and kids... ), and post here as to the ETA of the next load of stock in to the UK.

That is unless @Alice Gibbs beats me to it!

 

[NikTheSHNIK]

I ordered mine on July 15th and I am still waiting

@Alice Gibbs @NikTheSHNIK Do you have any more updates or are these still due W/C 23rd September?

Sorry for the long wait for a response. Had to take some time off to look after the kids in the Summer hols!

Should have some more info for you next week. I'll post here as soon as i have it!
