NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - (PRE)ORDER DISCUSSION **NO COMPETITOR HINTING**

[Slam62]

Anyone seen this on the other site?

Price Guarantee on your pre-order price:

• • If the price drops, we'll refund you the difference at the time of shipping.
• • If the price increases, we'll notify you in advance—you can choose to accept or cancel your order.

So, am I reading that right? They can increase the price you paid?

Price isn’t going down is it?

Glad I cancelled, if the 9800x3d is anything to go by, it’ll be several months before you see the launch prices again.
The Fe is the only one that might stay at the same price.

Tbh you can’t blame retailers for maximising profit, it’s the way things work, seems like overclockers latched on quickly.

Bit dissappointing to read that. However, OCUK have already increased the price in advance for your convenience

I was expecting my new mosquito-powered space heater to arrive on Monday but it's out for delivery today.

Same here. I'd never previously not managed to get a card on launch day, was well dejected when everything happened at launch time with buttons not opening up to order, but then it gave me time to actually look at prices and make an informed decision and resigned myself to having to wait a couple of months. Then it gets shipped anyway and with free Saturday delivery to boot. Well impressed.

It's a feature not a bug. Oc uk scalps the price so that you don't have to worry about bots

I noticed when I get an email for the other place about my pre-order that you cannot order another RTX 5000 series if you cancel your pre-order

Better to sit back and let all the craziness pass.

59090 FE cards on eBay for over £3k. I hope no one buys them. Sad state of affairs really.

 

[silvagti]

Some interesting thoughts in the latest Vex Youtube video. I'd agree. There's definitely something off about the supply issues with the 5000 launch. Makes you wonder what's going on behind the scenes at Nvidia....

Some of the scalpers on ebay have multiple 5090' s listed..WTF

One of the last ones scan had today; we needed 6 cards, but managed to get 8 so we've brought the remainder down to London areas.

We have it in hand and you can collect tonight, tomorrow or any time over the weekend

You can collect at any time; if you're travelling far.

We have one open, and several sealed if you want an authentic experience; we do ask that you open it at collection point.

Where did you order the card, in the OC store or in another store, if in another one?

If in another store, then on the website you have a page where tracking is possible, when you enter your order number and email or post code, you should be able to track and there should be a "Live tracking" button, when you press it you should see the card model you ordered, your current position, etc.

When I ordered Astral LC, I didn't have this button for a few hours, only when I received an e-mail with information that I could live track my order of the RTX 5xxx card, this button appeared.

I ordered it on overclockersUK but still no email wrt the queue position. I got a confirmation email for the order though. And that’s it

I understand, unfortunately I can't help here because I ordered from another store

I've never seen manli available in the UK from a retailer... There are a lot of obviously fake listings on eBay like users with 0 feedback, it could be a card is available but then most likely shipping from china so the chances of getting any sort of support on a problem is going to be zero.

Sad that all the impatient idiots are ruining it for everyone.

Yeah reading the description it does say shipped direct from china lol

They are also listing a AX GAMING X3W RTX 5080 16GB which looks quite nice in white.

This is why I still order with OCUK. I've never had to deal with stuff like this. Sure the prices are higher here, but I can't tell you how many times I've had to deal with BS from other retailers.

5080 due to be delivered around 4pm today, so just glad I don't have to deal with this mess anymore.

Call me selfish but when I buy a card I don't fancy paying 300 quid over market price so that other people don't have to pay the difference when they're placed in a queue.

Besides, if the price difference was about securing stock then the 4090 on OCUK wouldn't have been at these mental prices the last couple years.
