was in the process of buying a b grade item, wanted to use paypal, started processing the order, no paypal option, pressed back to see what was going on and the item had disappeared.

ok, fair enough, someone else had nabbed it.

Just checked my account now and my order history is showing the order is in progress, even though i never completed the order.

Even my email shows nothing. Teething problems with new site no doubt.
 
Interesting bug in the B-Grade GPU section. Looking at the list view it shows:

Click on the item to view it and it shows a difference price
bug1_2.png

Seems to be the only one its doing them on.
 
The BB code seems to be off - it's missing the 'http:' from the image links.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

Total: £309.89

On the plus side, i ordered what was still in my basket and the price had gone down by £10 when i finally paid for it, so i am happy that the site threw a wobbly of sorts. Result ;D
 
Yep we are XD, not my design but about two years of work went in to making it work :)

Purely out of interest, why did it take so long? Especially so because the site is now using pre built ecommerce software - www.shopware.de - that takes a huge amount of work away. Granted, you probably have other systems that the site needs to talk to, but even so, 2 years is a huge amount of time.

Was it a case of lots of different parties having their say for example?
 
The BBCode feature still isn't working for me and several other people from what I have seen. The basket comes up correctly but just the text comes up instead of the thumbnails. It's been like this for almost two weeks now.

Yup. Only displays if we manually enter "http:" wherever it's missing in the BBCode text.

Searching for low-profile air coolers only brings up a fraction of the low-profile products available on the website, too. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/air-cooling/coolers/cpu/low-profile-and-stock-heatsinks No Noctuas, Xigmatek, Scythe and others.
