Stock Tracker Discords
Stock Drops from private computer shops on discord that never reach the stock trackers.
A bot to buy it on etailers that is watching the stock trackers.
A Scalper
Buying a build to order/prebuilt pc. 
The Long EVGA Queue
New Egg Shuffle
Flying to Asia to buy, or having a friend that is going, or having friends and or family there to buy it for you.
Knowing someone who has a PC shop
Waiting in line at Microcenter for them to show up and hope you get one.

That is about it

Shuffle is getting too weird for me with all the psus they are trying to add to each gpu and they are not even well reviewed psus.

Shuffle hasn't worked for me, the best bet is maybe Best But or Zotac if you can handle their crashing website. Amd from what I heard drops every Thursday and is pretty normal to get a card from there without a bot.

Shuffle has really soured me on Newegg. I succeeded in getting a 5600X from it in early February but all of these bundles they’re doing with the graphics cards are just scummy. I built a new machine in February and had to put my 780 Ti in it. No Newegg, I don’t need a $400 motherboard with my scalper-priced GPU...

No it’s not bad and I entered for it too but they probably have two or three of them tops and thousands of real entries and who knows how many bots since they can’t even be bothered to do the most simple text message authentication to stop bulk account creation.

Really pissed me off to see those pictures honestly. Those cards should have gone to EVGA’s loyal customers that have been in the queue for 4+ months, not to a techtuber pulling a publicity stunt for his own pockets (the only way to even find out when the program is live is to watch every video they post, genius marketing on their part).

I agree. No cards should have gone to LTT........they should have fulfilled their queue.

Yup plus the way they're doing it makes it really hard to get even if you actually game. Kinda lame not all of us know all the trivia questions.

Good luck. You are up against a bunch of bots in the shuffle too because Newegg is too lazy to do anything about them.

All kidding aside....I'm hoping that the supply increases over the next few months, but it does seem doubtful.
 
I hate the prices Newegg puts on the 'raffle'.
 





 
As for the prices, it's mostly the OEM's charging them. Anything from ASUS has a huge markup on it even above other brands of the same cards... for both Radeon and NVIDIA.




Taking full advantage of the demand... 




They also have a shortage in supply so they need to make up profit

Aye, unfortunately I have to agree there. Particularly given that everyone that signed up for the auto-notify didn't even know they were signing up for a wait list at the time... which means none of them were bots or entered to scalp. It wasn't turned into a waitlist queue until after the fact. Truly insane to me that the regular 3080 FTW3 isn't even past the first week 8 months later. And lets not forget folks outside the US... those in the EU queue are still on the first day.
