EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 XC3 ULTRA GAMING
in stock and seems like a fair price for a 3080
Edit: it’s been in stock for hours, likely an error
EDIT 22/01/2021, just called CPL an they said if you don’t get an email about allocation then you need to request a refund via email to [email protected] and they will offer full refund
What's wrong with them, Kelvin?
Yes I want to know too. Share your experience so that others may benefit

Hmmmm..
My own story isnt as bad as some of the ones above..
Bought a TV tuner card from them..
BEFORE leaving the shop I examine the item.. (knowing how dodgy CPL can be) to check for faults..
the tuner card had obviously been opened and possibly used before..
I immediately ask for a new one instead.
Their reply is that they as all like that..
I ask them.. if if doesn't work, can I get a refund..
The answer was no..
So I ask for my money back instead..
I was forced to fill out a full RMA form for a refund of an item, that never left their shop..
After wasting an hour of my time.. and went to another PC shop and purchased the item I wanted off the shelf. fully sealed , new and working..
I ask them.. if if doesn't work, can I get a refund..
The answer was no..
Wooow, that is very illegal
Bump as this should be seen by more people.
I ordered a Thrustmaster steering wheel from them, it had lots of play between the wheel and hub. It was such a hassle to get a return/refund from this mob. Will never shop at CPL again.
I've had faulty products from Umart and Computer Alliance before, much more pleasant experience.
Pray to Dooogeee U won't ask for refund if something is wrong with your item… They will give U a hard time if you ask for a refund back to your bank and their final resolute will force you to take up their credit note.
… Unless 2021something miracle has changed.
Do you work there?
isnt this retail money?
much worse than that, the PLE launch price was $1100ish. All the prices are inflated though. And most of those people may well have received their cards.
Only about half the first day preorders would have received their cards for the cheap EVGA's.
Monopoly money
is this real life
No, def fantasy
We're definitely caught in a landslide
(and there is no escape from reality)
These things sell like hot cakes, there's no chance stock is still there.
I bought one, so lets see how it goes.
I got one thanks OP - wish me luck lol
Unlimited stock. Could add 100 to cart. Good luck to those who order. CPL is terrible
can't be bothered "making a deal" for it but PLE have some 3090s , Gigabyte, EVGA and Zotac, $2700 to $3050 ish
https://www.ple.com.au/Categories/1152/Graphics-Cards/Nvidia…
there was no shortage for 3090's after first 3 weeks
I didn't know that but I don't know who is buying 3090's anyway .. I got my sensible card a little while ago but but i ordered on launch and missed the watch dogs legion give away :(
I was too tired hunting for 3080's and settled for 3070 end of November. More than enough for my needs as I mainly play valorant
"in stock" at cpl. Lol.
If you wanna get it NEVER PAY upfront. Collect it in store and pay in person.
Most unethical scum bags with warranty.. stopped going there ages ago. Had to take them to small claims tribunal to get a faulty gfx card refunded. They wont bother turning up to the hearing.. but even the refund took weeks.
I gather we are more better protected these days toughening up with ACL?… Even with the pursuant of ACL back then, I still had to take them to the tribunal.
Got one as it said in-stock (desperately needed one) . However, now after reading all those negative reviews, I am a lot concerned. :(
there is no way its in stock, its either an error or stock is coming across board and other shops will have them soon…..guess we'll find out - do let us know how you go :)
Everyone said the same thing with their 5900x a few weeks ago. I got mine two days later.
fair enough - its still too expansive for a sub $1100 card….
@botchie: I just want to remind you that the prices for most GPUs (especially 3080s) were adjusted higher by about10% by EVGA, Asus and others recently. You won't see that price for this card anytime soon.
@botchie: I said about 10%. For some cheaper ones it was higher and for some more expensive ones a bit lower. Expensive or cheap is an individual perspective but obviously the market doesn't think they are expensive or else no one would buy them.
@[Deactivated]: so they shouldn't put prices on products anymore - see how much ppl are willing to pay and set that as a price? there is rrp for a reason bud, this is just price gauging - no different from ppl buying it and scalping it, if Nvidia produced a fair amount of cards as per markets demand then you wouldnt see this but it suits everyone to keep ripping ppl off that are upgrading or need a new card
These guys suck. Purchased an MSI 3080, but they screwed me over and said was never in stock. Lucky I screenshot there website throughout checkout. Rubbish service also via phone and email.
I have taken a screenshot as well for proof. If it's not dispatched by tomorrow, I will request a refund :(
You can request all you want..
Hopefully you get your money back soon…
Rather than all the hassles / headache others have been through..
…..
On the unlikely outcome of receiving the for mentioned video cards.. Congrats
i bought a 6800xt from these guys only to be told they missed the XT and it was a 6800 only…
I did order a 3080 from them last month and received it.
lel i got this under $1200
Almost positive it's an error as you can add 100 of these cards to your cart. Either way, not a deal. I'm sure these were around $1200 at launch. I understand the convenience of it being in stock but refer to my first point.
You could buy 2 PS5s for that money.
I spoke to them before and they said their online stock system can take 1 hour to update it's not instant, so could be sold out but showing in stock. Good luck to everyone!
I had a 3080 but went back to a 2080ti I got cheap……is enough for me but was fun for a month having one of the best cards for Cyberpunk :)
How much did you grab you 2080ti if you dont mind me asking?
Confirmed from sales rep said it basically sold out instantly so anyone who ordered not in first few minutes probably out of luck unfortunately.
Can confirm this. Anyone who had bought this, suggest you contact the support and confirm and to try get the refund process started. Suprisingly they are responsive this morning.
These were $1139 at launch at PLE. I would not call this a bargain at all, it is RRP pricing. Just because it's in stock, does not make this any sort of deal worthy of Ozbargain.
It wasn't in stock
But you could pre-order at that price. My friend did.
Ok, now they confirmed no stock and my run begins for the refund. Probably this would be my last order with them :(
How can these companies get away with these kind of stuff?
that sux, it looked too good to be true…wonder if anyone will be able to get a card from them at all?
should definitely be able to report them to someone
Sounds like these guys should be banned from ozbargain. Don't they regularly have price errors to attract more visitors to their website?
Just an update on this. I received a refund from CPL without much hassle (other than a bit of a delay).
ouch CPL..
I would rather give money to Megabuy and Kogan than this mob.. after dealing with them in the past..
Worth doing your research before buying from them..
