What? They had 3090 in stock on the 25th.
He's referring to those customers who are still waiting because they ordered before the prices increases kicked in. The chances of finding a non-FE card for anywhere close to those prices now are pretty much zero.
Also, please don't blame us for the current pricing. I really don't want to go over it again, but we're not the primary source of the rises.
The only reason that FE card prices have remained stable is because Nvidia can sell a less than their usual 65% margin...
Nobody else in the supply chain for board partner cards makes anywhere near that sort of money.

You must be close to losing money on the cards when it comes to customers who bought before the increases

So what's with all the 'cloud fire' checks I'm getting every time I come the main page?
protect the server from being pulled down by bots and also manage traffic as well as verification of IP addresses i would imagine
Just a thought, but how about 2FA? Send a code to the buyer's mobile phone.

Check Gibbo’s update thread to give you an idea
On some brands we've been losing money since before Xmas.
It varies massively from brand to brand, model to model. For brands who deliver 'weekly' through distribution such as MSI, Gigabyte, Asus it can be as little as one at a time.
And no Caseking has it's own supply issues. Our stock is from UK sources or in the case of guys like Zotac/KFa etc direct from the manufacturer

No need, just advertise 10min or so in advance will be sufficient I think

The new AMD card out Wednesday is looking very expensive for a 192 bit bus card looks like they are making hay while the sun shines.

If you look at the Gibbo posts on the sticky's it tells you.

What makes you think it will be in stock and can buy one. We've not seen 6xxx cards for weeks nay months.
Just gonna say that even the idea of excluding some people here from whatever, for whatever purpose or reason (not necessarily GPU drop related), based on the number of posts they've accrued, is a wholly narrow minded idea. 
Some of us who have been around for 10 plus years and patronized OCUK for longer than that, lurk continuously within the forum, but are not the "posting frequently" type.
Just because we are not vociferous nor interactive, does not make us or our custom invalid.

Have great a great day and good luck in procuring a GPU if you're trying!
