Let me tell you about my last order with these charlatans.
Few months back I decided to change to AMD, so I bought the motherboard, CPU, RAM, PSU and waterblock at same time (I already have my 1080ti which has it's own waterblock on it) from these guys.
All arrived fine, but the CPU block was 'Intel'? In fact, it was an Intel block that was much cheaper than the AMD one I had ordered? Called them up about it (now, one would think if I was ordering an AMD system, then why would I need an Intel block?), well, they refused to believe me unless I sent them a pic of the 'unopened' product, of which I did. Few emails back and forth and I got an apology saying it was a 'stock error'. Fair enough, sent back, at my cost first, as they refused to still believe me. All good, refund for postage returned, and replacement on way, guess what? Same block came back!
Yeah. So after going through same process again, I eventually got the block I ordered, bearing in mind it was £149, and the one they sent me, £39 Not soon after (and I should have learned), I had run out of tubing, so I placed an order (per meter) for 4 x 1/2OD. Order arrived next day, and 2 x was what I ordered, aka 1/2OD, the other 2 was 3/4OD, why???!! I gave up and didn't bother complaining as I just had enough to do. Yeah, one gets tired, oh, I'm still waiting on an apology.

lol was wondering when someone would try to turn the thread into a general store bashing dump. Take it elsewhere.
Ordered Gigabyte Eagle 3080 14:40pm 17th Sept. started at position 105. From last week to this week it has gone from 90 to 89. This is despite OC saying a 'OK' amount is coming in mid last week and another shipment on friday last week. This is obviously NOT a demand problem. How can you sell ONE card. This is ridiculous. Pure lies and false promises. I have purchased my entire PC build components from OC in readiness for the 3080. so have a machine i essentially cannot use unless i purchase a different GPU. I have an Index sitting in its box waiting to be played with for 5 weeks so even more gutted. I guess im in an ok position in the Q compared to some people but the nearer you get to the front the slower it goes due to no one cancelling. UK

if you think overclockers need this Madness your insane.
They must be up and shipping early today then
I hope you're not playing lol
The eagle shipments are MIA mate, any time now, people are just concerned that others seemed to receive their shipment and OCUK ain't got theirs yet for some reason, and there has been no official word on what's happened to them, even the gigabyte rep seems to think they should have had them

Well I'm hoping this month is better for bigger shipments than last months small trickles of cards
This launch has been a shambles
It was annoying enough when I got my 1080ti at launch and that took 3-4 weeks

I forgot to mention I ordered via the main competitor. Hopefully OC have had theirs as well. The shipment didn't arrive with the competitor until really late Saturday night
Jesus mate how do you forget to say its from a competitor...
