How can you raise the price of the 3080 when they aren't even available, the 3080 with hydro copper block jumped just about $100 and still not even in stock. That's just not rite increase the price but yet you cant even order it.

    Trump Tariff's as applied to GPU's has gone into effect (there was some exemption that has now expired). These price increases are just so EVGA can get the same profit per card they used to. The difference goes to the government.

    Was the price increased in the EU store as well as the US one?

    I don't think so, just the US store (thanks to the Trump tarriffs, as phoenix136 mentioned).
     
    I *think* I read that Biden plans on stopping the tarriffs after inauguration day, so fingers crossed it'll be a temporary thing.

    Not sure about the website but retailers in my country (Greece) have already added 100+ euro to the already higher price. Average price for a 3080 atm is at 1150-1200 eur.

    Very nice to see EVGA honoring the old price for those of us in the queue.  Staying positive that the notify will hit before April...

    Same boat here for HC, there was a defect in their original block design and the card has been delayed indefinitely until the can sort it out. Kinda choked this card is now $930USD. EVGA's Canadian distribution goes through the US so as a Canadia I'm stuck paying Trump tariffs as well.

    Lack of supply and high demand.

    Nothing to do with "tariffs".

    Did public school fail us again?  When supply can't fulfill demand that is precisely when you increase price to balance out the demand.  I mean, that's the core fundamentals of the free market.

    While I agree, at least in the US, I'm pretty sure a 25% tariff would most definitely have an impact.

    Trump is trying to go scorched Earth on his way out. Hopefully Biden drops the tariffs after he takes office and we'll get reasonable prices again. As for availability, shrug, who knows on that.

    A bad news. Many cards are out of stock.
