Want 5% discount? See inside.

That's a bit pointless isn't it? 5% off but you now have to pay around 5% for shipping?

27th till 31st.

So Monday till Friday, someone just made a typo on the banner, that is all. Makes it a bit confusing!

So not extending it until Haswell release? Shame as that was an almost cert from me.

The code will not work with other promotions!

So if you are spending under £250, use the free shipping, if you are spending over £250, then use the 5% code!

Awww. Pretty disappointed in this. Cant afford my new monitor now

This discussion has been had.

Count yourself lucky you get a persistent '5%' with free delivery. Not everyone gets free delivery.

Spend more than £250 and use it or put up and shut up with your free delivery.

Not in this thread as far as I can see? :confused:

Daft question, but if I use this 5% discount, I noticed you said it cannot be used with any other promotion i.e. free delivery.

Will cashback still work via quidco, and topcashback?

The Gigabyte GeForce GTX 780 WindForce 3x OC is sucking me in, I can't resist.

Thanks.

Are people seriously complaining that they don't get to stack codes?

A 5% reduction is pretty damn good if you're buying a GTX 780 anyway.

I can see the code and I'm not even on facebook! Anyway not likely to use it as not got anything I need at a price ghat would outweigh the no free delivery.

yes. just placed my order

sports_brah · 27 May 2013 at 13:30

Could you guys PLEASE put a reasonably priced 27" 2560x1440 monitor for sale so I don't have to buy elsewhere substantially cheaper.

I want to use this 5% coupon to buy a new monitor, 480gb ssd, keyboard + mice, case ram and headset but the difference in price is just too much.

lettuce · 28 May 2013 at 17:28

Great thanks

Tute · 28 May 2013 at 20:13

I really don't like to whine as I think any discount is generous but the whole thing of choosing between this and the free delivery is a bit of a letdown really - and it seems to be the same every time we get a discount, we lose the delivery instead.

I'm just saying that sometimes, it would be nice to have both.

4737Joker · 29 May 2013 at 08:46

On the orders where free shipping outweighs the 5% discount it is most likely not in there interest to reduce the cost of these items any further.

It costs roughly £7 to post something out via courier (based on the costings of the company i work for). If you were to buy something for say £100 and worked on the assumption that ocuk were making 30% (£30, baring in mind VAT and tax is to be deducted as well). Once you take the £7 for the courier and £5 for the discount your already down to a 18% profit margin.

Yes it would be great if we could all buy things super cheap but at the end of the day they are running a business and need to make some profit
