The graphic cards supply is completely madness. Even after the crypto crash it is not possible to buy RTX cards at price any close to MSRP.
But today my jaw drop when I saw auction on popular online portal where some guy was selling a place in a queue in another store. The title was "Rights to buy RTX 3080" and for 400$ you could potentially buy a GPU for the price close to MSRP. I think this was too much and after a few hour the advert was took down.

    The price of BTC is still higher than it was any time before 2021, not sure if it is really fair to call it a crash. Many altcoins have a even higher price raise than BTC.

    i was "lucky". got a 3060 gigabyte (12GB OC version) for 700 Euro.
    I do not need the OC because i could do this on my own but I did not want to wait any longer.

    As I have a side hussle I can even save some taxes with the purchase - so I just buyed it. If It was not for the side hussle I would not have bought it for that price though.

    People use bots to buy GPUs, just like with sneakers. Normal buyers don't stand a chance.

    @thezla perhaps we do. Use your old GPU to maximize your chances of your bot getting a GPU
