This is second R13 order and that was after I was told that my R12 was delayed due to a part shortage and decided to upgrade to the R13. My first R13 with the 3090 GPU was in confirmed status for three weeks before I was told there was going to be a two month delay. I canceled that order and downgraded to the 3080ti because I was told that it wouldn't be delayed. Wrong. I was told tonight that I had to consent to another two month delay or my order would be canceled, Again. This is ridiculous. Three times delayed for three different orders in less six weeks. I wish there was an option to see what parts are available and to build a PC from them without a delay.
I was just informed by Email that Dell is sorry about the delays and my only two options are to wait the extra three months or cancel my order. My first R12 order was canceled due to delays but I was told that the new R13 was going to be on time. But that was before the 3090 gpu part shortage. Then I was promised that if I downgraded to the 3080ti I'd get my order before Christmas. Now they want me to wait until March 12, a total of over five months of delays.
I canceled this order and started another R13 purchase since I was only getting the usual non answers that didn't help at all. I went back to the 3090 GPU. I figured if I had to wait months for a R13 I might as well get the one I really want.
Day two, new R13 ordered yesterday. In Confirmed status. I'm going to post a daily log on my R13 order status as long as they let me. It'll be interesting to see how many weeks this will go.
I can't say I'm ok with a delay. It's more that I'm expecting a delay. The three orders prior to this one were delayed for parts,why should this one be different?
