After everything cleared, they put up 3 or 4 models of 3090. Then a single 3060 a few minutes after that.Wish you didn't post that there was a second wave...

Thanks and yea it's the highest in the country. I usually get stuff shipped to relatives where it's still a more reasonable 8% but no time for that address changing during b stock madness. This part of the bay area used to be relatively ok but last week saw a 1.9 m home get pre-emptively bought out for 2.3!!! It's bat shit crazy now thanks to the covid 'relief' and fed stupidity.Nothing meh about that! Tax and shipping are brutal though.
No shuffle today. Plus newegg released a bunch of 3070 Ti's onto their store last night. I think the shuffle might be dead.
Yeah it was 4 or 5 3060/3070/Ti last night and this afternoon, they sell out probably within a few minutes.Don't see anything below a 3070 Ti, except a few 2060s. But maybe they show up and sell out?
Seems like GPUs are becoming pretty available now with all the Discord notifications I'm getting. Now they just need to drop prices to reasonable levels. $500+ for any 60 series GPU is still pretty stupid to me. Saw a bunch of notifications on eVGA configurator for the $1800 WC 3080 12GB bundles too, but not interested in a liquid cooler that doesn't really net me any noticeable performance or acoustic improvements over a decent air cooler.
It's a culmination of all the things we've been talking about last few months:Perhaps it's just a return to the original days, where there were only 1-2 shuffles a week. We got spoiled with daily shuffles. Or perhaps supply has dried up and there are less cards right now for some reason.
Except the prices aren't coming down. This isn't how it works.While these aren't good prices, they are basically what was showing up on Shuffle, but I always passed on these prices on the shuffle.
I think it's a good sign, first they are in stock at high prices, next the prices will come down.
I got a 30% last summer when I signed up before the 3070 ti and 3080 ti elite drops ------- and then never got a notify for either of my Elite Queues. and couldn't ever get a higher end GPU into my cart during b-stocks. The code expired after 90 daysChecked the EVGA subreddit and I don't see anything. Except this guy who got a 3080 12 GB with 40% wheel spin. Crazy.

I got a 5% off coupon when I spun it back in November. Coupon has already expired.Checked the EVGA subreddit and I don't see anything. Except this guy who got a 3080 12 GB with 40% wheel spin. Crazy.

It's interesting, the cards are still over-priced and many with bundles, but they still sell out instantly... However Newegg gave up Shuffling them. It's like people still want the cards but don't bother with the shuffle.
Why would the 3070 Ti's not sell in the Shuffles but they sell when directly listed on the store?

As for price drops, the secondhand market reacts much faster than retail. Keep an eye on Ebay, StockX, HardwareSwap... Wherever it is people are selling GPUs these days.
I had to disable my Ebay alerts because GPUs are triggering them constantly. Alerts that used to trigger once per week are now triggering once per day. Prices are definitely dropping.
I sold a 970 for $250 mid-January, it's now down to $150.
Awesome you got one. That discount for being used and less warranty is horrible though. Hoping she lasts you a long time .Big b-stock 30 series about 5 minutes ago.
Grabbed a holy grail.
Restock happened at 5:06 PM, I placed my order at 5:16 PM. And that was after failing to get the XC3 model. Site is very slow.
