***OcUK FIRST - OCZ Vertex 3 Available to Pre-Order!***

Ok, but why OcUk don't telling the true about the date?
To make the people to preorder??
REAL release date is same in all e-stores (99% sure - maybe 1 day diference).
It's NOT FAIR...

Hi there

OCZ apologise for the delays and informed me yesterday evening they have now started shipping and we should be taking delivery early next week.

In regards to our ETA's were simply list the ETA the manufacturer gives us and they have delayed it twice now.

OCZ informed me last night they have had some issues with packaging but drives have now started leaving their warehouses to their worldwide destinations. They do apologise for delays but at the same time want to make sure customers get drives which work fine and also arrive correctly packaged and in one piece.

Based on our usual shipping times from OCZ delivery will arrive Wednesday onwards.

Hi there

OCZ are here with me today, the news is good and bad.

The good news is drives did ship last night.

The bad news is were not gonna get that many for the first shipment.

Its not great as we have a lot more backorders. OCZ are ensuring they are doing everything to get more drives into OcUK first simply because we have more backorders than any other etailor resulting in OcUK getting priority allocation.

So those of you who pre-ordered early on should get a drive, but those who have pre-ordered in the last week or so unfortunately you may have to wait another 1-2 weeks.

I have arranged for a conference call with one of OCZ's directors this evening as to how much of a disgrace this is to see if I can battle to get allocation from other countries shipped to OcUK. I shall be doing my best!

sad faces are now attached. I'm sure Gibbo will let OCZ know what we're all thinking. This is something only junk food can make better in the short term - can you ask OCZ to cover the cost of my pizza :P
 
So glad I preordered mine like 3 weeks ago!

edit: Order date and time: 10 Mar, 11, 12:05 pm. - You reckon I could be inline for one of the first to arrive hmm? :D *cross fingers*

Hi there

OCZ are here with me today, the news is good and bad.

The good news is drives did ship last night.

The bad news is OCZ were expecting 14,000 controllers and only recieved 3000 controllers for their whole worldwide allocation.

This means only 1/5th of the expected stock is available resulting in the UK only been allocated 90 of each drive, yes 90 for the whole of the UK. Out of those 90 drives were pushing to get 60 units.

Its not great as we have a lot more backorders. OCZ are ensuring they are doing everything to get more drives into OcUK first simply because we have more backorders than any other etailor resulting in OcUK getting priority allocation.

Poor management by OCZ. How can they go from being on track for delivery at the beginning of the week, to having a sudden shortfall of 80% due to a shortage of a vital component? This means they must have known about this several days ago at least.
Hope the call goes in your favour Gibbo
