The problem is that you don't even need the account to join the queue, all you need to do is type in names and email also there is no chaptcha and you can queue for every card not just one per email. Thats like paradise for bots.

Yeah, imo the queue should be a broad queue for the series card you want. Then when ur up EVGA tells you what cards are available and you pick one to purchase.

Hopefully, your card gets to you soon!

My opinion, they need to offer an option merge the queues for lines they are not actively producing into those that they are.  Send out an email notifying that (for example) the 3080 black isn't in current production due to consolidating resources on the most popular/capable product lines and give people an option to keep their date/time and join an active line, or stay where they're at.

I agree. There could be some logistics issue to implement this, but I think it's fair

we are grateful for the queue but yes there are still improvements that can be made for a but more transparency

I agree. Every queue placeholders should be verified.

Newegg shuffle is irritating. At least you have a chance, I guess. Never been selected though.

you have a much better chance with Best Buy than the shuffle. I will give you a tip I wish someone told me a long time ago for BB, even though they ship all the cards, they are allocated regionally. If you click on a card and it’s not available in your regions allocation, it will never let you get to the second checkout. Save all the cards you are interested in to the “save for later” file. When a drop hits, open your cart, all of your saved items will be there, add them to the cart and wait. I opened 3 tabs doing the same thing, 3rd tab finally made it to check out. Once you have a item in the first cart, do not refresh, refreshing will take you out of the queue. I had to wait 27 minutes from first cart to checkout.

Thank you for the BB tip! I will try it on the next drop.

no problem. They usually drop every other Thursday, so most likely the next drop should be the 13th. Times vary, last week the drop was at 4:30 pm EST. Make a account beforehand, you want to check out as fast as possible. And from what I’ve seen in the discord servers, it doesn’t really matter if you use the website, app or mobile site to score a card. Good luck!

This is a great tip. Honestly, I've never thought of this. Thank you so much.
 

Yea queue is much better than random luck...

At this point, there are so many people in the EVGA queues, I will probably never see any of the cards I signed up for.  The next gen cards will be out long before they get enough stock.

I really hope you're wrong! :-|

The shuffle is irritating for sure.

Mining may be hitting a wall soon...if miners start selling off their cards en masse, prices will drop. 

That would be something. But I'm not holding my breath. 

Reworking it won't change if the demand is still much higher than the supply.

I have no idea, same boat as you, but hoping to figure this out soon...I could really use a 30 series soon. Ultimately I hear that the supply will catch onto demand, but I feel like the pandemic has grown so many other gamers beside myself.
