ASUS ROG STRIX 6800XT BREXIT EDITION. 1 piece will be released in the UK in Q1 2022.

Not really if you think about it. If a retailer openly said I have no stock of the 6000 series then that reduces the number of visits to that website. Better for them to say nowt and there traffic will probably increase and they then have the chance that someone visiting may buy something else. Even if they have 1000 visits and 2 people out of the 1000 buy something thats better than nowt.
It makes sense business wise. To the general public its annoying.

That is not true. That was not units shipped.
Gibbo posted on the 26th of Oct what they had shipped in the month since launch, so including launch day with the 3070 not yet released.

And almost all of his updates in the thread are low end double digit shipments. His hints of stock before the launch were also in the low hundreds.
~edit~
Competitor with 4 letters released backlog numbers and they shipped a similar number in the whole month (500 ish) with several thousand backorders. Asus doing the best shipping 100 3090's in that time period.
Those figures covers two of the largest UK retailers. Over the first month of filling back orders, not even launch day figures. Back orders are only seriously being filled in the tail end of Oct and the start of Nov, with 3090's doing the best (due to lower total orders generally)

Agree, business wise it's...not, for us though it would be nice....
One thing i find funny with all of this is the forum is super active! I'm guessing the next hot topic will be 4k freesync monitors...
to date though, 2 months later. anyway all the numbers are just people taking a round guess

My quote was supposed to be a way they could have put a positive spin on the supply vs demand issues.

The best thing for business long term is to be good to your customer, and make the experience as pleasant as possible
Take all the goodwill over the 'reserve in cart' mechanism some people use
you had multiple waves of 3070s,3080s and 3090s on day 1?
My PS5 is no longer day 1 thanks to Shop To, but you can have it when it turns up if you’ve not managed to source one by then.
Yes.
I mean had you gone PS5 I would not have said that, but on PC you can pretty much play all the Xbox games anyway
Just kidding get whatever pleases you
No, did have multiple stores with 3070s, 3080s and 3090s day one though and more waves afterwards since.
No, 6800/XT non AIB only.
Yes.
