Is OCUK now using the term pre order for items that are just out of stock? I’m doing a refresh on my 2nd PC in the bedroom, basically just new motherboard and CPU as what I have ATM won’t run Win 11. Shopping for stuff for this build, I see the term pre order being used on OCUK on products that have already been released. An example would be the wooden front panel for the Lian Li A3 mATX case. I decided that as well as mobo and cpu, I’d get a cheap case as the one I have currently is a POS. I bought the wrong version of the case and can’t be bothered sending it back and spotted that you can buy the front panel separately, when I went to checkout I saw that it was pre order.
Pre Order.

What do you mean 'just'?
I know, the case is like 60 and the wood panel is 20, but you need to realise, I’m very lazy, and kind of bad with money, lol. TBH my health isn’t the best and I don’t have a car, so it’s the thought of getting it to the post office too. That being said they may pick up.
They do pick up.
Think it should be less than £10 with up to £150 compensation if anything goes wrong.
