Happened many times to be too. I've been watching the tracker and click on links instantly. Still wasn't able to get anything
Uh... what trackers?

The freak of Amazon Jeff Bezobolb intentionally took multi million dollar losses in diaper sales to bury a woman's company that delivered diapers. After finding this out I have not will shop at Amazon ever again.The gpus are getting sold for sure ,just to the highest bidder.

Buying a GPU on Amazon has become impossible. I tried to buy the EVGA 3070 or 3080 many times, and even though I add it to my cart, it disappears in the checkout process.
To save from 3% up to 10% on your EVGA purchases, please consider using my associate code 381NOD2H79URRCF (or just click on the associates banner below). Thank you!

Hard times for gamers through the end of 2021. But how far past then?
Seeing how many gamers caved and bought from scalpers, I don’t think this problem is going away any time soon.

You should probably just not buy from any corporation then because they all do shady crap. Walmart and Target, for example, strategically pick their store locations so as to crush as much nearby competition as possible and the very thing you’re talking about Amazon doing came right out of Walmart’s playbook. If it’s profitable, shareholders demand it be done.

Everybody is scalping. The issue is the low supply and that can't be fixed quickly.

Amazon just popped up as I was checking tracker.. added to cart, signed in. Got as far as shipping AND ERROR... Empty cart... Empty sadness. It was an evga ultra 3080 too.
Sorry bro... Amazon is as good as useless at this point. With the armada of bots and scripts scanning the site, your odds of getting anything from there is next to nil even *with* bots

BestBuy hasn't been good to me either. 503 error a couple times today with AMD, as well as a full checkout at AMD that doesn't appear to have actually gone through.

Its literally impossible to buy any GPU from Amazon nowadays. They all get sold within the first second of being posted. Personally I gave up a long time ago

Amazon is essentially a no-go zone... There are so many bots and scripts in the background that it's virtually impossible for most people to nab them (hell, even WITH bots)

I feel your pain.
Honestly, I don’t understand why the add-to-cart button cannot universally reserve an item during the checkout process… even if it is just for 5 minutes. I get that it may be a business decision to prevent a missed sale (if an item is reserved but then not purchased)… but on a high demand item… it just leads to heartbreak. I also know of many retailers that do have such a system, so it cannot be considered impossible.

I think it's because the retailer has no incentive to have such a system.

I feel better about Best Buy than Amazon even though I'm at a 0% win rate.

I actually got a 6700xt for msrp from Amazon about 2 weeks ago. I canceled the order before it was shipped though cause I really dont want a 6700xt. So it is possible. Well, it was once.
