Newegg Shuffle Success?

Has anyone here had success scoring a graphics card from a Newegg Shuffle? I don't have the money or inclination to pay scalper prices so I'm monitoring stock fulfillment as best I can and have entered a few shuffles and was just wondering if it works. Must say I'm not too happy with all the bundles, though.

Yes, just have to log in and buy it during the short window after the "win"

I've entered a few times, I haven't had any luck though, if you "win" all you have to is open the email or go through the newegg app and buy the item.

I haven't entered every shuffle, because i'm not a fan of newegg calling being able to buy a gpu a "win" and I really dislike newegg bundling stuff in with graphics cards, like forcing people to buy dangerous power supplies.

Over many months I have won chance to buy 3 times: Ryzen 5900x, Radeon 6700 XT, and a RTX 3080 Ti bundle (didn't buy).

 

If you have patience and luck, you'll get something for "normal" price, which is still well above MSRP.

I recently “won” an evga 3080 ti costing 1399. Far less than most 80tis. Decided 1500 with tax and shipping was still too much for a gpu and didnt know anyone who wanted it so cancelled the order. 
 

Prior to that id lost 60 plus consecutive shuffles.
