i will offer 80 euro for this server, hit me up if you want to transfer your server
I just want KS-A to add into my idle pool. Since BF is less than 3 months away, I will just wait then
What a waste...
Any pending orders processed today?
Nope.
the moment they drop we'll post yabs you can be sure of that
Just forget about it. Wait for weeks, months, years,... and then suddenly a mail from OVH announces that your dedicated has been delivered.
I hope it's not months or years because I need the invoice for my bookkeeping.
All those who offer money to buy out servers - you enabling scalpers. Idiots.
Sure but getting one of these would reduce my running costs whilst also allowing me to expand at the same time.
The KS-A is extremely amazing value and I was pissed that I woke up to it literally selling out.
My want and need is matching here and OVH sold out within minutes.
Almost nobody will price match or find anything equivalent in stock. Sucks that yes we would get scalped but I'm not wanting to pay insane money for it. Besides... I'd rather buy it from someone who would just idle it as I would certainly put it to good use.
I got a reply from OVH...

Seems they want to refund and get it over with..
Yeah, seems fair
Their stance: ”keep quiet and wait your turn or have your money back”
It’s not perfect, but at least they offer you all money back no questions asked
Only thing that’s a little annoying to me is that they don’t seem to offer the invoice until service is delivered
If they haven't cancel (y)our invoice yet, that means they still want to keep you and most likely it is not a pricing error either.
Hope everyone gets a KS-A!
its a $5 dedi, I'm not expecting them to air ship the parts all the way from uganda. However, Would've been nice to know that it will take time or like a specific update like "hey, we're having the parts shipping from xyz, may take two weeks" rather than the initial, "we are checking the order" blah blah..
A bit of transparency won't hurt, Eitherway, I'm willing to wait it out soz
Did anyone buy KS-A in APAC? The price looks like 10 times more, interested to see YABS.
I got a msg from my Account Manager at OVH, who I haven't spoken to in 2 years (lmao) since I buy all my OVH servers from Andy10gbit now, but he doesn't know if the offer is a mistake or not, and also he is not able to place any new orders. He has some internal tool to check the exact stock of each server model, and said that the KS-A had a stock of -2128 lol. How quickly they build 2k servers of that model is questionable.
I don't think it's a pricing error, they likely would have corrected the checkout page by now. It was clear at that price they were going to sell very quickly though.
If that’s true I’d imagine a lot will get cancelled, they’re literally burning money by wasting space hosting these servers at the price they are
I actually had someone contact me from OVH who wanted to meet up and discuss our needs. I just remembered I could contact the guy and ask him about the stock for these but you already did! Didn’t even think about that. Thanks!
-2128 is absolutely crazy.
I mean, if it ends up taking weeks or months, A LOT will probably end up getting cancelled by request of the client, making the queue smaller even without taking new deployments into account.
It’s a good sign for blackfriday though, the OVH deals the last few years have been shit
Aight, looks like we can't place a new order for KS-A anytime soon. That's a lot of back-orders.

for canada yes,may add more stock in france
OVH is known to sell more inventory than they currently have in stock.
However 2k sounds a bit to much, if true thought, no stock probably until next week or more.
48 hours gone and still no server.
OVH is making me lose billions with a lower case b.
Does anyone have a bad experience with OVH Abuse?
is that till now, rebooted server & sent to rescue mode?
i only see @emgh horny like this on BF or haven't had sex long time.
so .. hopefully you get less frustrated soon
He can't be that horny? Or can he...?
There will always be cheap servers... some of them will even be delivered, but it's not about servers.
i caught him lastnight
wonder what he is doing now?
I was there for the original 3.99€ dedi release 11 years ago. It took many months to deliver all the servers. It's great that they are focusing more on value again, but sadly the next cheapest server is 21€ including VAT + 21€ setup fee.
