Responding here does nothing. Fill your backorders or stop taking them.
Purchase Order 734211718 placed 2/24/2021 As of 3/27/2021 ShopBLT is claiming to have $2,260,721.20 worth of Gigabyte RADEON 6800 GAMING OC 16GB arriving by 06/17/2021, with a vast number of units arriving by April 13, 2021. They have now resorted to changing one ETA at a time, just to try to make things seem a little less suspicious. But the exact number on backorder was rolled over into the "Incoming" sum with a predictable change in earliest ETA. According to the website, "This is accurate real-time availability as of Saturday, March 27, 2021 9:23:15 PM Eastern Time." Same experience as all the other low ratings. Stacking pre-orders with no clear ability or intent to fill them. When this order is finally filled, I'll consider changing the rating. If it's not filled before I just give up on waiting or before the GPU price goes up AGAIN, forcing me to cancel, then it will remain the same. If you want to respond, respond by telling us what you are doing to advocate with the suppliers or stem the nonsense backordering that makes it impossible to tell if it's realistic to expect to be served before the cards are obsolete. UPDATE: As of 5/8/2021 my order ETA has been delayed twice more, with no clear sign that ShopBLT is filling ANY orders. Meanwhile, the delay has been accompanied by this note: "*Current pricing on this item is $1,058.64. Pricing on your order has not been updated yet, as pricing may further change when stock arrives." BASICALLY, THEY LEAVE STUFF IN THE FINE-PRINT INSTEAD OF UPDATING IT, to keep people on the hook and hope they continue believing they are getting their original price, as was originally written on the website. ' DO NOT TRUST THESE RUSTY SHOVEL DEALERS. You'll get more out of the goldrush mining with your hands.
