I see about 20 different versions on another store, there's actually a huge range of them, doesn't seem to be a cart option for any of them tho...

AMD direct have it listed @ £413 (6700XT)

If that's with VAT its not too bad, still a bit much but not as high as i thought it was going to be.
Soldato
Thats with VAT - ofc, not shipped to the UK, because, Brexit
I get why they wouldn't care. But, given the money they make they could do it as a one off PR exercise
Caporegime
Right.
american company cant ship to the uk because of brexit, riiiiiiiiiiight. guessing the have a euro hub and to hell with the uk market. nice to know.
Ye but it's not big enough. It's a bunch of nerds and miners and a few normal people.
The toilet roll stuff was international and looked bad to everyone, could even say it was threatening health.
Graphic cards... not so much.

- We are temporarily unable to process shipments to the United Kingdom.

Probably not because they get money in fees. If anything, they should be taken down as they don't have the card to sell yet. It could go missing when being delivered to them!

Hi there
OcUK has around 600 units at present, another 600ish en-route.
If we put anything live and that could be today/tomorrow or next week but due to huge demand issues I won't be giving any warning to anybody at present because the 600 we have split across a couple of SKU's would turn into 3000 units sold within 5 minutes landing us in the same 3080 situation on back orders.
As such if I put product live there will be no warning, in the past I have given a heads up on these forums and requested NOBODY mentions we have stock outside our own forum, no HOTUKDEALS, NO DISCORD no nothing but people from these forums still went ahead and did exactly that creating a huge problem with over selling.
As such your gonna have to keep your eyes open guys I am afraid for them appearing on OcUK but we are hopeful for next month we can maybe get 2000-3000 units in stock, but let us pray and keep our fingers crossed.

@Gibbo , 600 seems better than some launches of recent. Will you have any msrp cards?
I understand have a similar issue in my line of work with trailer ecu modules

What's you impressions, if you have any on the stock levels on these? Once again AMD promised high stock levels, either they haven't learned from when they did that with the 6800/6900 series or they have actually made enough of them....
