1 min in the queue could take a month to fill right?
 

Depends. Last minute of queue took 2 days to fill (7/12-7/14), and minute before that was nearly 3 weeks. Going off OP's list.

It's getting to the timestamps in the queue that the bulk of people were getting in at now. Basically any time past 7:45 was when the site issues got fixed for the majority, and a lot of people were getting in. Kram's list (it's awesome that he got such a comprehensive list put together and everyone contributing!) is a great tracking tool, but it's not necessarily full and complete by any means. There are probably hundreds, if not thousands, that got in the queue but aren't checking the forums here or posting their timestamps.
 
As with anything, just be patient my man! I sat at less than a minute away for about 2 weeks, and now I got the 3080 Ti FTW3 in my machine and loving it! Good luck and happy hunting!

seem today no drop 

They are doing an all-day 22 Anniversary Twitch Stream.  EVGA_JacobF is there and there is not a drawing pencil or watercolor brush in sight.  
 
In short, it doesn't look good.

You can remove me from the queue (261.    8:14:17 codebluetoo) as I am removing my notify.  I walked into a store on a whim and found an RTX 3080 TI bundle deal and snapped it up.  Hope all gamers have similar luck!

Got a 3080 Ti from Best Buy this morning. The lucky bastard in front of me got the very last 3080.

Will note it in the queue. Congrats!

Limited stock this week but there will be some 3967 drops this week, per Jacob.

Hoping 'limited" means we get a minute of movement or better!

Looks like some people who got the card from evga waiting list selling on eBay just saw guy 😲

This person?

Yeah, he is the guy that runs that element35 site. Pure profit (minus tax and shipping cost) for him with all the EVGA Bucks he has.

As a general rule I stay away from scalpers and have never purchased from one. However, to me it's about margins. If it's low enough, I don't think it encourages scalpers in the future and so in theory I wouldn't have a problem buying from one. That's exactly what happened a few days ago. I found a sealed 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra on ebay from someone who is like 10 mins from me and messaged them asking if they'd take less in cash or Venmo and meet. By the time they responded they said they had already sold it for $1550 in person. If you factor in taxes and shipping buying from EVGA, whoever bought it got a good deal as the total cost would be pretty close.
 
I was bummed I missed out until the next day, when I found a sealed 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra Hydrocopper - my 1st preference of card!! - also on ebay, from someone who bought directly from EVGA but doesn't have a custom loop and is 15 mins away. I messaged them, we shared contact info and I offered $1700 in person and they accepted. If I were to buy from EVGA, with Virginia taxes and shipping, that's probably a little over $1600? So I'm getting one for less than $100 over MSRP. I violated my scalper rule but for that low a price and given that I have a build in progress and likely far away on the 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra HC queue, I can deal.
 
Based on the prices I've been seeing over the months on ebay, scalpers are having a harder and harder time offloading cards so they're having to take less. If you're nowhere near the queue and having a tough time waiting, I'd recommend checking for local listings and offering cash or Venmo/Paypal/etc and local pickup. The seller avoids ebay fees which is good for them and you might be able to grab a card for relatively little over MSRP months in advance of the queue. As always, make sure to meet at a local police station!
