Any strategies on getting my hands
on a 3070 ti or 3080 that anyone knows about?


Only way I’m aware of is Newegg shuffle.

Insane that it’s been so long and these things aren’t more available.

Yeah i don’t mind a little markup but I’m seeing like 2.5-3x retail which is insane.

its retailer markup
if a asus tuf 3070 ti cost 950+ tax
RETAIL
and a reseller buys its
they aint selling it for cost

evga the only company
not completely fucking everyone

offer 50bux over retail
for a 3070 ti and you should get it

3080 are like 12-1300
3080ti are 1600+
3090 2300+
3060 ti minium 700

I mean 599.99 for a 3070 ti

Is a price I’m willing to pay.

The Newegg shuffle is a lottery drawing for sure but at least the prices aren’t 2.5x retail.

I expect to pay a premium for it but I guess I wasnt super clear with what I meant. My expectation when searching for a GPU was paying 900 for a 3070 ti TBH but seems like that won't happen.


Newegg has a literal lottery you can enter to get a 3070 ti at true retail (599.99).


Other then that they have scalper prices yes. But i was pointing out that they do sell cards at true retail. Not that I was expecting to get one for 599.99.



Buddy got a RTX 3080 at true retail from Best Buy last week after waiting 2 months. There's a program Best Buy offers to get on a waiting list for computer parts which includes GPU's so I may just do that. Wanted to try and avoid spending 200 bucks to enter the program though.

I literally know it all
People in my group have
1k Newegg accs for the lottery
The chances to hit are near impossible
I've waited in line at bb multiple times

Just spend the 50-100 and
Get it now
Or cry for another year
