VOUCHER CODE DEALS CONCEPT PLAN!

CAT-THE-FIFTH · 25 Mar 2021 at 12:28

I missed the deal by 5 minutes. Teaches me to go the toilet!

MCFC_ANDY · 25 Mar 2021 at 12:28

can see why OC have done it this way, and i guess makes sense to see the marketplace, though loyalty shouldnt have to be based on just post count imo, just because folk dont post a lot, surely they just as loyal, loyalty i always thought staying with a company over a length of time determines that, whether you shop/post or dont post.
this isnt a dig, but loyalty can be earnt in many ways, and i wont be buying until the madness ends, maybe 2022 or late 2021, so this doesnt affect me, just a thought.
right off to find a sofa to hide behind

I know tell me about it, you wont hear me complaining though. Now back to praying DPD actually deliver.

I'm guessing all the cards were packed and ready to ship....................all that had to be done was slap the shipping details on them.

Second day in a row I can only really say well done

Selfish folk will never use logic when it's a system for limited resources.

Personally I think it should be capped to members who have been here at least 2 years and have at least 2000 posts.

People who use OCUK do not necessarily participate on the forum. I’ve bought stuff as far back as this account was made..probably, but never felt the need to post in the forum. Why isn’t completely random fair? What you are suggesting is prioritising those who use the forum, not those who have used the shop. Why not just make the raffle only open to people who have a purchase history, and it’s easy to limit to 1 card per category or other constraints as appropriate.

Am I sour, maybe a little, I am greedy though. I have a decent GPU already. I would like to get another for a second machine though.

Thanks very much, pretty reasonable indeed

At least you're honest. I am loving your 6 post count though

No, that’s what sold out means

Sorry man, it sucks balls for you guys but it at least means its kept out of the hands of the bots

Pete @r... · 25 Mar 2021 at 12:40

What about yesterday. Only waiting for a 6800/Xt but just wanting to find out if we stand any chance. If they all sell out in mm then we stand no chance.

Definitely, no sour grapes but was just wondering

JediFragger · 25 Mar 2021 at 12:41

It's just literally the only way it can be done atm

audiemurth · 25 Mar 2021 at 12:41

Well said MCFC ANDY & stevenjohnston, looking at purchase history is good proof of a valid customer but I suppose they have not got the time for that.

That’s the aim though. The long term active contributors to the forum are being prioritised

It's a way of keeping it private and out of bot hands, if it was posted in the general forum it'd hit bots before real people would have a chance.

Hopefully they now don't see a bunch of these cards up on ebay. I know that I could resell for a much higher price, but it's going straight in my machine, and bugger the potential profit. OCUK are doing something nice, I have no intention of abusing that, and hope others feel the same way.

I know all that and fully agree, but @Gibbo said if all goes well he'll open it up to public. So just wondering if they have had any left over to do that
