Over promise, under deliver
I ordered a graphics card in October of 2020, and every other week I get an update saying it’s been pushed back. I don’t know if they’ve just prioritized other orders over mine - or if they’re really are just that bad at inventory planning. They use the excuse that they can’t control when they get inventory, which I acknowledge, but if your supply change is really that inconsistent then you shouldn’t open things up for preorder.

Nobody is allowed to jump the line. Period. We stopped accepting pre-orders for most graphics cards earlier this week, as noted at the top of the site. We do not generate ETAs. They come directly from the manufacturers and suppliers from whom we purchase. Graphics cards are in short supply due to manufacturing issues and we have no control over that as we are not a manufacturer. We understand, and share your frustration over delays. Unfortunately, we have no control over the speed and quantity of production by the manufacturers. We simply must wait for them to produce sufficient product to fill the orders. When they push back their ETA's, there is truly nothing we can do about it. We are always seeking alternative sources for products, and do our best to fill orders whenever possible. And, there is no charge to place a pre-order, and customers are free to cancel at any time without penalty, should they find the item elsewhere.
