Does anyone know if EVGA plans to honor the originally MSRP for people in the step up queue? I saw in the notification thread that they will honor the MSRP for general queue until a certain date.

SPECIAL EVGA 30 SERIES UPDATE NOTICE:
Due to ongoing events, EVGA has made price adjustments on the GeForce RTX 30 Series products. This change was necessary due to several factors and will be effective January 11, 2021. EVGA has worked to reduce and minimize these costs as much as possible. For those who are currently in the EVGA.com Notify Queue system or Step-Up Queue, EVGA will honor the original MSRP pricing through April 16th, 2021 if your purchase position is processed before this date.

Thank you. I don't think I'll make it by 4/16 since I got in late.

On the bright side it's not like people are paying more then retail. Unfortunately retail changed which unless you already found a card it's now the price for entry into this generation.

I am sure European customer protection has to say something about this. You not going to get more money from me. Either honor the price or give me back my money for the current card.

So they're going after Trump then? Because he is the one that imposed the tariffs on Chinese exports...So blame him (and even if you are not in the USA, it affects the markets worldwide, as most products are shipped to the US and then distributed globally).

It's amazing how people still suffer from TDS. Absolutely stunning!

No, European products are not shipped to the US first. To even entertain such a thought is completely insane.

TDS? Whats that? And ever heard of supply chain? Here, learn something https://www.sourcetoday.c...ectronics-supply-chain

Lol, good luck complaining and getting your money back. What are those protection agencies going to do? Everything is increasing so companies (not only EVGA, they're all doing it) have to increase prices to remain profitable, they're a business.

At least EVGA is being nicer than any other companies and offering a Step up benefit (no one else does) and honoring the prices until April. In case you didn't read the previous posts:

You don't like it? Then keep complaining like the entitled brat you sound like.

that one quite funny statement on evga own page .
all these years evga cards produced in taiwan were sent to usa first , and then shipped from usa to eu. 
last year situation changed due to evga eu office restructurization.
