And more importantly what makes you think the verified customers are not scalping it. Whether some bot is hoovering it up or some forum member getting it from Ocuk and then slinging it on Ebay/marketplace whatever. They may be verified for these forums but that doesn't change the fact.
Cos the people who buy them are fanatical hardcore Asus fans and don't care about Asus tax. The only other group which is even more fanatical are the Corsair Fanboi's
Congratulations on the Suprim! Was it from here and what did you pay for it if don't mind me asking?And more importantly what makes you think the verified customers are not scalping it.

I need an Astral to complete my collection
But on the plus side my first Suprim 5090 has arrived
Okay so it was from here however this was not my order. Another forum member I am good friends with on here ordered 3 5090's. One from each major competitor including the one he ordered from OCUK. He already got this 5090 quite a few weeks ago. So his suprim shipped the day before and he knew I couldn't get hold of a 5090 or even the pre order queue at any retailer (I did mange to order in the end but it was so behind everyone else I will be one of the last I am guessing and it was from OCUK). So he offered it to me so I paid what they go for on the OCUK website which is 2774 I do believe. Then I paid the shipping costs so it will be around 2794 all in.
This makes me so happy the forum is a thing! I am really chuffed for you! What a weekend you have in store! Enjoy mate.
Well the commuinity forum where members look after another if they can is still very much alive. Along the way you will meet various forum members who are the backbone of this community. I know the GPU section can be heated and frustrations flair especially with launch day and stuff. But some of the members whether it be 9800x3d launch or 5xxx series launch give an opportunity to members who were not fortunate to get them at a good price not that we can say anything about any 5xxx series card is a good price.
£3099.99
Just under £3100
Expensive indeed but not as bad as i imagined considering this is the 1st Astral I know of that's actually been available for sale... much cheaper than the Palit non OC card for £3500 by that other scumbag competitor earlier in the morning 
Gibbo mentioned yesterday that he is expecting a huge amount of 5090 Astral next week and will be interesting to see what happens with the price for them on this site considering they are £300 more expensive than elsewhere as is ....And those are actually selling, as well. They started with 5 and were down to 2 a minute or so ago.
Did they not even offer to let you use the card until they get replacements later?
Seen it for £2850 today but why are MSI refusing the return, the card is missing ROPs ffs
any luck with Steve from GN ? What are they expecting you to do with it considering its not what you paid for!
