Even if that happen it may just be when supply increases. Either way if you wouldn't pay $70 more vs $500-2000 more on ebay then I'm sure what to say to you. $70 higher to adjust for tariffs is still way cheaper then other other options. who cares. 

This is why Tariffs do not work, Unless We can produce whatever the product is in the USA the customer just pays the additional and the manufacturer of any said tariff imposed product still makes the same profit.
The customer is the only one that loses

Tariffs work for political and economic reasons even if consumers don't like them. New fabs will be online from TMSC and Samsung inside the US within a few years.

I think the point the point of the tarrifs was to try and incentivize getting more things produced in the USA. Not saying it's working, certainly not in this case but in general that's the intent.

The point of this tariff is to not have things made in China. New fabs are being made by samsung and TMSC in the USA.

On quotes/invoices for steel products, we'd just get quotes with a separate "Tariff charge" on it for the extra amount.  So we got hurt for it and the owner/contractor got hurt because they had to pay more and all the other building trades got hurt with smaller scopes because there was less money for windows and countertops when you're paying an extra 10% for steel.  The only ones who didn't get hurt were the countries selling the steel.  Well, and the US government collecting all the extra cash.

Shuffle looks good today. Good luck everyone for drops and for the shuffle if you try. For all the nay-sayers here, please note how reasonable the EVGA pricing is, even on Newegg, compared to nearly all the other brands.

I can't wait for my 3898. I'm only 210 seconds away from glory after waiting for almost 6 months.
 
Yes, I know that the 3898 didn't launch 6 months ago, but I was in the 3897 queue first before I gave up my launch day time stamp and went for the hybrid instead. So, don't hate on me when I get my 3898 before you get your 3897. I have already been waiting longer than pretty much everyone. 

Fair enough, but your timestamp is 3 months after mine, so it will still sting if you or anyone else got the card in that time period.
 
You've been waiting 3 months for your hybrid card, I've been waiting almost 6 months for the 3897.

What difference does it make which card we are talking about? I have been waiting since 9/17 for A card. I gave up my time stamp for the 3897 shortly before it came up in late November so YOU can get your card faster. I didn't buy it anyway and scalp it like some here would have done without a second thought. I'm not a piece of ****. Fact is, I have been waiting longer than you for A card, and I might end up waiting even longer if the TI is announced before I get my auto-notify email for the 3898. So, don't worry, you will most likely get your precious card before I do.

Why the salt? We need to remember we are on the same team here, and we are all victims of circumstance. A post release popularity shortage has never lasted this long before. Normally by now, we would be seeing them on shelves in stores and you could just go buy one.

Question about the queue here. I missed the drop on one of my cards Friday because I wasn't expecting it. Based on the linked document, the queue for that card was still very early on 11/6 where as my notify was created 11/7. As if yesterday the document still shows queue times as being 11/6 for the 3070 XC3 so I was very surprised (and frankly, angry) to see that my notify had apparently come and went on Friday while I had a very busy day if work at school before leaving for spring break. Completely missed my 8hr window. I do have a 2nd notify for the FTW3 but I was really hoping to get both to update my son's PC as well.

Is it typical to see the document be several days out of sync like that?

Spreadsheet is trash (mostly).  Refer to enewt's daily last notify report.  If you truly did miss the mail, people have had luck with emailing EVGA and explaining the situation.
 
Good luck.

I believe that he is. enewt's document states that the XC3 is on 11/6, and he signed up for 11/7. So, there does appear to be a mismatch. Either way, Warfield2 should send a message to support to deal with it, it won't get fixed here in the forums. And, no need to dump on other people's work. From what I can see, the spreadsheet and the daily update enewt put out are both pretty much in line - that's actually important, as it serves as validation for the actual position of the queue. You should never use only one source.

I did not mean to insult the spreadsheet or anyone's work.  The problem with the spreadsheet is it is unofficial, has to be constantly fixed, and is sooo misunderstood.  I appreciate all the work people have done to support this community and keep people informed.  The effort that goes into the spreadsheet is disproportionately large versus the value it provides when compared to the list of the last emails sent per sku. 
 
Plus, it is way too easy for trolls and idiots to completely corrupt the spreadsheet with nonsense.  Not that you are implying this, but Enewt is not the only person who has maintained these sheets, there was at least one other guy who was around for a couple months in the beginning and he had to manually fix it every single day.  Not sure if the spreadsheet is even the original reddit one or the second one, or something else entirely.
 
As I said before, if people know the last email date/time sent for their SKU and know their notify time, it is simply waiting for the difference between those numbers to be zero, and you will get an email.  The spreadsheet is only going to likely bum people out, give them false hope, or confuse them (most likely confuse them).

Never said you were a piece of anything. The 3897 and 3898 obviously use the same chips to be made. When the 3898 are released, you see a lul in the 3897 for about 2 weeks, then they start up again. That's why I say I get bitter when someone that queued in December gets their card before I do.
 
I thank you for giving up your time stamp for the 3897.

Yes but even a bad truth is the.....truth. Better to know where we stand i say. It's not too difficult to look at those spreadsheets and get a general timeframe of where we stand. 

Knowing is helpful, 100% agree.  But the accuracy of the spreadsheet is only as good and complete as the submissions...  Therefore, it is inherently incomplete and possibly "more than expected" inaccurate.  No one can possibly "know" from an unofficial spreadsheet, one can infer, one can guess, one can hypothesize, but they cannot know. 
 
When multiple people post their notifies and it says the aligned date/time, SKU and Yes, along with the Jacob alert of the SKUs dropping, that is much more trustworthy and closer to knowing and the truth.
 
I do not want to argue, I understand your point and there is general value in the spreadsheet, but the only real truth is getting that sweet, sweet email in your inbox from EVGA.
 
As always, good luck and fast queues to all, I have to get back to work :D
 

3655 drop!  The 3060 XC BLACK exists!

Samsung lost much being in Texas.
As did others.

The last round of tarrifs were done because the folks that did them had no idea what they were.

The same folks that thought free shipping meant Amazon was not paying Post Office to ship things.

That Covid was a Hoax.
