The queue skipping policy has to be one of the most reprehensible things I've seen. Especially as people who have waited double as long as me are forced to wait when someone else can just waltz around them laughing at them.

I've missed out on two shipments due to this stupid policy. I've now said enough is enough and cancelled it completely. I have a strix oc on preorder with the rainforest and will wait it out. Good news is you've probably jumped a place in the "QUEUE".

I applaud you and also sympathise with you

I took time off for the two ETA for the classifieds(Epic fail) to get some decent play time as i don't get a great deal of free time for long sessions of gaming these days with a heavy workload, so booked another two weeks off starting the 15th Aug, surely the Classifieds will be by the hundreds unless they give them all to the yanks again as they did with the FTW and SC cards.

The KFA2 wait is now beyond a joke.
If you contact CS all you get is ,, the end of the week ,, the end of next week ,, couple of weeks time ,, the end of the month.

Gibbo even has no answer, when he even bothers to answer a KFA2 post.

If you have no clue or don't care when they arrive, just say so.
Don't peddle this week after week crap, which is obviously a lie.

Doubt it. FTW are only drip feeding in at 40 a week and looks like it will be end of August before all pre-orders are caught up with.

Suppose it depnds how many Classified pre-orders they have had but equally i can see them coming in 5 or 10 at a time max.

Aye it's getting a bit daft now, and I've got no option but to wait it out since there are no 1080's being sold within my budget now, so if I cancel my Inno3d order here I'll have to downgrade to a 1070.

And since my current card is knackered, I can't game at all until this catastrofumble gets sorted.

Just Ben says there might be a drop on friday of classifieds, Overclockers should know by now if this is coming or not, as the EVGA rep said people would be in contact whilst he was away on his jolly's seems not the case.
Blimey ordered in may and might not get until Sept, now that is taking the ....:(

You would almost think they do not want to get stock of the loss making pre orders in the hope people will crack with the extended wait time, and buy cards that are now available at the post Brexit prices.

Thought Ben said 2 or 3 Classifieds? The pre-order list will be much longer than that.

A lot of etailers are doing that. My mate "claims" he has had an email from the rainforest saying that if he cancels his Strix pre-order (i think it was around £600 when it was priced wrong) they will give him a £60 credit. :eek:

I was one of the jumpers. I got moved to the first place in the evga ftw queue after the swap from strix. They had 40 cards this week, shipped out but I will not get one for some reason. So dont blame the queue jumpers for everything since there could be others like me who were in good place but will not receive a card for some reason. :(

I would rather they just say there will be no large shipments of pre ordered stock until all pre order customers have cancelled their orders or switched to one of our profit making available cards.
