The first pre-order price isn't available anymore. Stock was extremely limited with most retailers selling out on the first day alone so plenty more people will be wanting to order.

I checked our pricing against our competitors a few minutes ago and we were pretty keen. Post in the pre-sales forum of where you've found it cheaper and I'll have a look.

OEM will be out eventually but Microsoft are not giving us any pricing at the moment.
 
Good job OCUK, competitor beating price (on the Home) as usual :) If the price goes up before it ships what price do we pay on a preorder? and when is it deducted from the bank account?

Question is...when will they have Ultimate available? I have pre-ordered this elsewhere and its the only place I have found it at so far...but already pre-ordered Pro too for under £90 so I am ok there...

In fact Slackworth mentioned there will be OEM versions...I thought M$ said they weren't doing any OEMs? Or did I hear wrong?
 
Does this mean OCUK lose out on a tenner on every order then?

No? MS have only just set the pricing. The "first wave" was just speculators - not using official pricing. That's why they're more expensive as they had to make damn sure they weren't going to make a loss.
