Overclockers have upped gpu cost???

[southernorth]

I don't have loyalty for loyalty sake. I do however have loyalty for good customer service (which I always get with OCUK). So will happily pay a couple pounds more to buy from them. (They will nearly always price match the other big players anyway).
The only time I have bought from the Rainforest over OCUK was I needed next day delivery on a Sat and didn't want to pay the extra. But of course it came back to bite me as the GPU arrived in the retail packaging only! (no external box). Obviously dog eared and damaged and more difficult to sell on later for a decent price.

How have you gotten them to price match before? Didn't think it was a policy they had

Yes stick to your guns and you will be fine. I paid £200 for a 6 gig 1060 a few weeks ago

edit: random question here...

but have all electrical appliances bumped up in price due to Brexit/pound frailty? e.g. TVs, Audio systems, projectors, ovens etc

supposedly so. Richer sounds sent out an email to all it's VIP newsletter subs telling them to buy now as they were going to be getting more stock in next month at much higher prices so they would need to then increase prices for everything.

Tbh you never know the real intention of any salesman. Obviously they are looking for increased sales and profits. For a company like Richer Sounds they could be just trying to shift old stock before new models come in and then they have to slash prices of the old models anyway to make them attractive with the new models in stock.

I think you just need to shop around and make your own mind up.

Just asked them on the forum. In the customer service section. It's not a "policy" they have. But they seem eager to help where possible.
