Accepted Answer

I know eBay would never do something for the consumer. Nvidia would never do something to benefit the consumer. Heck even the retail price and rebranded40 series video cards are overpriced (4080 which is really a 4070). Very few companies do the right thing and care about consumers over outright greed. I am ok with companies making a profit but companies taking advantage of consumers and situations is something else. It was bad enough with the 30 series and Nvidia obviously learned that they can manipulate the consumer and prices even more this time.

You would think after all these years of scalpers destroying launches like this, they'd have better measures. Loyal BB customers should've been given priority, with anti-bot measures included. But no.. the bottom line is all that matters for BB. I've spent probably $10k+ at BB in the last few years but will be taking my money elsewhere for tech items.

This is why we need to be a socialist system. This will prevent people from scalping. Tax the crap out of these scalpers and tax the crap out of nvidia for being greedy. In fact tax they so hard so they won’t be able to buy their way out of it and force them to go out of business.

Whoever thought capitalism is good just look at our country. Nothing but over privileged greedy narcissists who don’t even think about the people trying to make a dollar to eat, dying of disease, and all we care about is our GPU’s. Use your money better. Be appreciative you can even have a modern computer.

How about stupid people quit paying crazy scalper prices and just wait or pick up a 3090 for cheap right now, and guess what scalper would stop buying up all the stock because there be no money in it. PCMag has an article where people on ebay are paying 2,200 to as high as $4,499. Which is crazy town, so I don't get it.

I don't believe they want to fix it, it will be easy just by doing pre order like iphone and samsung phones may not all people receive at same time the card but it will prevent these scalpers from buying cards.
I believe they have benefit from this market and may be they are the scalpers, who knows.

You don’t want to buy 40– anyway they r slow for the price and only with dlss3.0 do they reach the 2-3x uplift over last gen

Just do exactly what I'm going to do never spend another penny with Best Buy and never spend another Penny on an Nvidia product. From now on AMD all the way minus the 7950 I'm going to take back to Best Buy and shove up their ( ! ) and get my money back and go rebuy it somewhere that actually cares about their customers that spends tens of thousands of dollars with them every year. I'm that petty yes I sure am

Why would they do that?  They make most of their money from scalpers.  Best Buy could end this by making these only available in stores with a 1 per family limit.

You can start to see why EVGA bailed and their CEO didn't sugar coat it saying how Nvidia was horrible to work with.
Linus said they were the single worst company to deal with.
It's sad that company that (arguably) has the best GPU tech.. is one of the worst companies and treats  suppliers and customers like dirt.

Green · Answer

Scalpers would just sell on different platforms or locally.. can't really stop it unless NVIDIA releases an enormous supply at one.

Answer

Why would ebay want to cost themselves 10% on each of these? There is only one group of people that you ahould be angry at and those are the people who can afford to pay $1000 over MSRP. Nvidia is trying to not lose money, retailers and scalpers are trying to turn a quick profit, and ebay is just ripping off sellers as usual. None of those entities can be expected to change because people are willing to spend twice as much on release day.

i would have to agree, they should've learned from the ampere launch. instead it seems like they don't care about their customers, or any kind of quality control in terms of who they distribute to. smh. if it weren't for us gamers, these wouldn't even exists. ridiculously outrageous

Jess · Answer

Its not 100% nvidias fault. Its bestbuys fault for not putting in better measures but they dont care cause $$$. Nvidia doesn't control bestbuy. Though it would be nice if they released the FE elsewhere too. Also, EVGA was just mad cause they couldn't charge more for it.
