even MSI India is scalping their own cards on Amazon India 

The links you posted are for third party sellers on Amazon. The seller is "PC Parts and Solutions"

 

Also they're currently out of stock.

Back-ordered. Due in stock November 30 -- order now to reserve yours

Back-ordered. Due in stock November 9 -- order now to reserve yours

are you sure you and i clicked the same link? because clicking on the seller takes me to the MSI store page on Amazon
https://www.amazon.in/stores/MSI-+Made+for+Gamers+and+Creators/page/1F3A1AC8-F774-4ABB-8DF7-9C72724ED487?ref_=ast_bln

looks like MSI removed their listing from "more buying options" , now there's a 3rd party seller, and that seller is the comment 3rd party seller for most companies though

The "Visit the MSI Store" displayed on the product pages for MSI products is not the seller's store. The "Visit the <Brand> store" just takes you to other products from that brand. It is not the seller of the item on Amazon.

 

Not sure why you're targeting MSI for it either. If I search RTX 3080 there's cards from other brands for similar prices being sold by third party sellers.

Overclockers, ebuyer and scan all had a few if I remember correctly.

I meant the FE card. As for those retailers, stock was almost nonexistent, and the first and last (at least) illegally increased prices as buyers made their way through the checkout process. Prices remain inflated even now.

no wonder you can't buy it anywhere. The entire NVIDIA Presentation was not actually about release. They were just telling a story about the release.

I have the feeling nVidia played us. Their excuse of "we had no idea about the high demand" is simply big pile of hot steamy poop.

They knew it's gonna be very popular. They probably had to rush because AMD or their investors were about to get really mad.

Are AMD GPU worth buying...I have 2070rtx but should i in future give Amd a try

AMD is always worth considering if they give you roughly the performance you want and compete in the segmen/tier you're looking at.

 

If you don't know much about AMD then sure I'd say give them a try one time and see how you like it.

as i said, MSI seemed to have removed their listing, swear they had a buying option few days ago when i had checked, targeting MSI because at the time i had checked MSI was the only cards there were up on Amazon, must have removed it after the ebay thing 

[Valentyn]

So much for trying to buy one in Ireland so. Unless it's an FE I'm not touching it. Too much bad luck in the past with AIB cards.

They can just have steps in the purchasing process that a bot can’t do I don’t see why they don’t do this.

A bot can do bassically everything lol.

I don't understand why back ordering isn't more common. Take everyone's payment/shipping info in the order it was submitted, then when supply is available charge the card and ship it to the next in line. Limit 1 or 2 per credit card/shipping address/IP address and suddenly who cares if the bots get in line, at best they're only going to get an extra card or two.

Nah there's abstract tasks you can put in where a bot can't do it.

They released new gpu way to soon

they had to get them out

 

- before new consoles

 

- before AMD

 

 

If anything they started production too late...

 

 

Of course in reality they never planned to fullfil the demands, it's all just marketing fluff and gaining (keeping) mindshare over the competition.

As opposed to now, where they don't even need to do that.

computer parts that are effectively used to go online that cannot be purchased online.

we've come full circle  

 

storefront is the future. Start buying land for malls boys

best buy is the worst store so i hate this.

 

bestbuy: this item isnt available for shipping

best buy: this item is online only

Yea, it is simple. Get hired as a BestBuy min-wage warehouse employee to get access that facility. Then once you work there, you can now buy it online, and, as you have warehouse access, you can now get in and get your ordered item.

 

Wait... it says nothing about handling... so they can handle it... so that means you don't need to get hired at BestBuy, you can order it online, go to their warehouse, go to the front desk, and ask for it (show you order confirmation to the person). If security escort you out, go to Plan A above.

We talked about that before , I suppose, but I do wonder is "paper launching" a product actually legal?

 

I suppose it is because lying by itself isn't illegal of course, but if it [paper launching] is illegal then I have a hard time seeing NVIDIA actually convincing a court of their they had "no idea" about the demand bs...

 

 

But I suppose misleading the customer and preemptively "one up" your competition isn't actually against any laws, in most countries?

Do you know what a paper launch is?

It isn't what you think it is.
