Andrew, I don't like to say this, but it wasn't very hard to find a cheaper one at £459.98 inc. vat - 29 in stock. I'm not surprised why this deal thread isn't very popular at the moment.

It's from a big "e" tailor ;)

Get your facts right ihatelag! :p

Thats £459.98 for the one were selling at £445.99 Inc. VAT.
We are £15 cheaper than them.

So what is your point? :rolleyes:
This competitor does not even have this OC Black Edition were selling at £469.99
 
Did some googling and went to every single bookmarked competitor I have.

Most are cheaper by £5... NONE in stock. The only people apart from OcUK with stock are £50 more!

Gibbo, some places have the dual fan black edition a fair bit cheaper, althouh no stock, are you planning on matching their price?

I am not defending Gibbo but surely if you see it cheaper elsewhere buy it! I have brought things cheaper from competitors, but don't feel the need to moan on here about overclockers prices.

Exactly. LOL at people moaning about a retailers pricing strategy. If you want said item and you see it cheaper elsewhere, go elsewhere? I certainly do for everything I buy, whether it be PC related or not.

Yeah when the Dual shocked ones arrive we shall have a better price, but ETA is 1-2 weeks.
 
Gibbo,

Just sent you a link to your Hotmail account. I found the Core (with one search on a local company) @ for a fiver cheaper - they only have one though at the time of this post.

Gibbo, if (when:p) kepler smashes the 7970 and by some miracle is at the same price, then do OcUK take a huge hit?

Nope, AMD would move price if it came to that and price protect our stock down to the new price, if such a thing happens.
 
If you find it cheaper, buy it. - if in stock

I could offer everyone here a Ferrari for £29.99.

Guess what, none in stock!

Prices seem decent especially the black edition.

A bit like you're doing with the OcUK card, that you've coincidently put up in price to make up the difference of the drop in the in stock ones. :rolleyes:

You're as bad as all the other etailers messing around with these prices.

No we are not!

OcUK card has had an ETA of the 27th February since launch!
Those who ordered at £419.99 have had their orders honored and shall be shipped today. OcUK card is in stock today as per the ETA guidelines.

So we've not mislead anyone in any way at all. :rolleyes:

Where exactly did I say you where misleading anyone? Also, what part of the customer service handbook does it say to roll your eyes sarcastically at customers? Awesome work.

Stating here that you're making amazing reductions when your increasing prices on a virtually identical product isn't going to win you any fans. You giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other. I don't care if stuff is in stock or not, increasing prices is increasing prices. You're taking advantage of people that want a product now, if you're alright with that then it speaks volumes. I'm not criticising you as such, just pointing out that it doesn't look so good from a customers point of view. It's up to you whether you choose to take that on board or not.
