static.quaiNa, 2 minutes + 4 seconds.  He has a week at least if a new drop (not stragglers) come next week.

Missed that... then probably at least two drops.

Well, at least something dropped, but I don't think Jacob knew what he was talking about (or was told wrong) when he said 3897 was dropping this week.  *shrug*
 
I'll check again in a few days, maybe.

Um, it's only Wednesday. "This week" is not over yet.

You're right.  It's only 60% of the week.  With Friday routinely being 'stragglers' and lately Thursday being that way also (and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday).

There have been drops every day of the week except Monday. I'm not talking straggler drops either. One thing the spreadsheet does tell you with 100% accuracy is what days of the week drops have occurred. For example, the 3898 has dropped 8 times since launch not including straggler drops. Possibly more, but I didn't count emails that went out the next day after a drop. Half of them have been on a Tuesday including the two drops that occurred in February and March. One on Wednesday. One on Thursday. Two on Friday. Collecting this data didn't require any Excel gymnastics given that the queue has barely moved since the December 1 launch.

I assume EVGA resells the Step-Up RMA product as B-stock. Has anyone seen B-stock 30 series cards?

I would go out on a limb and say they would use it for RMA as most companies use refurbished or like new products for warranty replacements.

Your response reminded me of a story from my past. Years ago -- circa 2002 or so -- there was a young intern who joined the company I worked at for the summer along with about four or five other interns.  She had a catch phrase..."touche" (note, no accent...she pronounced it as if it was a single syllable word).  All summer long in response to any conversation she was a part of -- or that she overheard -- she would utter her catch phrase. The other interns thought it was funny. But the other employees and executives -- who were not in on the "joke" -- thought she was just ignorant. Needless-to-say, at the end of the summer (when the intern class usually receives offers to join the company when their schooling is over), she did not get an offer. Perception is often...everything. 
 
I see a lot of commentary on the EVGA forums, Reddit, Twitter and elsewhere complaining about the lack of movement of the queues and a lot of folks threatening to pursue AIB cards that are specifically not EVGA because of how they have been treated by the queues. Having been part of this community tracking the queues since October 5 (and pursuing a 30 series card since a few days before September 17 -- I am looking at you Amazon "preorder" that was cancelled), I understand the frustration...and I share it. But despite the unconscionable delays and the impending loss of the grandfathered 2020 prices status for those of us on the queues next week, I am still so very thankful that EVGA took the time and effort to create and maintain these queues.
 
Sometimes, late at night when my friends are happily gaming away on their new 30 series gpus while I putter along on my 3 year old Alienware laptop, I can get frustrated with EVGA. And before I start searching for my proverbial marbles to take back home, it is then that I need to go for a walk around the block and seek a new perspective.
 
It is not that EVGA is the problem...it is that EVGA's solution -- while helpful to many -- has not yet solved my problem. In my opinion, the EVGA queue system remains the worst way to purchase a 30 series graphics card, except for all of the others.
 
I hope your gpu problem is solved soon -- whether through the queues or otherwise.  Best of luck!

nomossAh man, that 2080 TI price, though.
I'm going to dither on this until they sell out, I can tell already.

Still some cards left: https://www.evga.com/products/productlist.aspx?type=8



 

Don't tempt me with a good time!
I have a 1070 to get by with until I get an Ampere GPU.  I don't need the 2080ti.  I don't need the 2080ti.  I don't ...  why is my credit card in my hand?

Dang, That is awesome!! 34 hours on 3987.  I am only about 2 drops away at this rate.  That would be AWESOME!!.

In case if you don't need it - sell it on ebay

Wont let me hit the place order button. Still says things are in stock. What teh heck!

Looks like they're getting hammered. If you watch the console when hitting the button, the server is sending back:

61|error|500|The remote server returned an error: (429) Too Many Requests.|

 
Yeah, I'm seeing that too. The bots got wind of their restock. Sad!

A certain somebody posted about it on Reddit.

You're a bit like the little red devil from Looney Tunes or the Flintstones (a whole lot of other shows as well).  Where's the angel side, Nick?

Somebody, somebody... this "somebody" has a nickname
But I don't see usage of associated code. Not even once

It's because you can't check out. I'm trying to check out. Won't let me. Can still add all cards to cart though.

Hmm. A transaction just hit my bank for the correct amount, but no email from EVGA. Weird. 

Yeah, I see three hits for the total amount, but each followed with a refund for the same amount :(

6dustYeah, I see three hits for the total amount, but each followed with a refund for the same amount :(

Looks like it was trolling from EVGA 😆
