*** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

This is not true as i recently purchased an Asus tuf monitor with no outer box from OCuK

I posted about that above

Never had a monitor delivered with an outer box, not from ocuk or any other major retailer.

 

[robaczek]

I didn't get one. I'll tell you something better. Back in the 1080 launch days, I didn't get one with my evga 1080 either.

That's pretty rough, that.

Exactly

...on the other hand, I had my motherboard delivered from OCUK in an outer box a while back and it's retail box looked like it was well kicked around the whole warehouse before it was boxed up so...what does it matter?

Not many things beat the anxiety of seeing the delivery guy carrying your new monitor on his shoulders on his way to your door...

Its what happened to it BEFORE it gets to your front door that you should be worried about!

my son has a 49inch Samsung superwide monitor. Looked like the delivery guy was carrying a canoe when that showed up.

I had a delivery guy drop a brand new Google Nexus 4 on the floor in front of me once. Literally as he delivered it to me.

Phone was built like a brick though and suffered no damage.

will be quite interesting seeing our longed-for graphics cards, left on doorsteps in the pouring rain as no signatures are required these days.

My experience with DPD so far is that they have to take the photo of the parcel with the door open, thus implying that someone has accepted it.

Same here

Well that annoys me. There is an international shortage of 3080 cards and thousands of punters waiting to get one but just seen on the bay of fleas that a competitor has loads and loads of prebuilds all with a 3080 card. They all say delivery within a week or two. I’m almost tempted to get one, strip out the card and sell the bits left over, but somewhat worried I’d not make my money back.

At least you got to see the driver deliver it!

So rumours are full lockdown from Thursday. That means my mail room will close - so either I get my TUF on Wednesday, or December - assuming it's included in the "small amount of most" which @Gibbo still couldn't be bothered to take 5 minutes and clarify on. Coz y'know, browsing the car forums is always infinitely more important than a forum full of angry customers asking for a tiny piece of information.

any people waiting on a EAGLE OC 3080, or any other GIGABYTE card. https://twitter.com/TheBristolBoy88/status/1322604152623636482 please give this a RT if you can... cheers

Can you not call and change the address?

sadly though this will now happen during a lockdown on the build-up to Christmas, so I suspect delivery drivers will be somewhat stretched and will probably take shortcuts. Must say, i had a parcel delivered by Amazon on Thursday in the pouring rain and they put it in a thick clear plastic bag to keep it dry, which was nice. Not sure if that’s a new policy.

 

[Mr.J]

Has anyone who ordered the EVGA 3080 XC3 Ultra from the Rainforest on Wednesday heard anything?

There's no 'contact seller' option available
