“I spend thousands of dollars at BestBuy a year and yet I am never able to purchase any of the things I'd like. How might someone get in contact with corporate to explain their frustration over the company allowing scalpers to buy all of the stock?”

The issue is not with Best Buy. It's with NVIDA as they set the price. MSRP is great if you can actually buy one for that price. Instead of fluctuating the price of the card based on demand NVIDA just sets insanely low prices even though demand is insane. Sure enough this attracts scalpers who are looking to make a profit on the arbitrage opportunity. If NVIDA fluctuated the price based on demand (increase price until they can retain inventory), then everyone would buy from them at a point when they could afford it and scalpers would have zero opportunity to scalp because the public price would be the same as the private price.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Sadly there is no way to stop it, as there is nothing to stop someone from buying a card and selling it. Sadly how much you spend doesn't change that they really never get stock of the 30 Nvidia cards.
