Yes... a friend of mine used fixitfixitfixit Live In-Stock Alerts on YouTube and signed up for notifications on their discord. He got a EVGA RTX 3060 ti Ultra last week through this discord... and just upgraded it to a EVGA RTX 3070 xc3 Ultra this morning. It really works. Sure beats waiting for a notification. I was on the notification list (still am), but I didn't want to sit and wait. I found a way to get my 3090 and 3070 for my kid at msrp at Microcenter last year... but there are other ways to get 30 series cards at msrp instead of waiting for a notification.

I haven’t had luck with the Discord servers either and they aggravate me because the only card I’ll buy is EVGA and they alert you to all of them. I mean I already didn’t like the others much but their gouging over this stock situation makes me hate them even more.

Closest I've gotten was a few cards in my cart but gone before I could complete checkout.

The friend that got a EVGA RTX 3060 ti Ultra last week... and bought a EVGA RTX 3070 xc3 Ultra this morning (his 1st choice was 3070)... he said when the discord says look for a drop on a certain day, he has saved items setup on best buy. and he has payment saved in his profile for quick checkout. Once he hears the notification from the discord and/or YouTube, he refreshes and middle clicks the card he wants, then Add to Cart. He had success though this discord 2 weeks in a row... he also said he pays attention to Best Buy drops only... which seem to return the most success.

I tried the circus that is Best Buy a few times... Ugh, no thanks! Sit there staring at a grey button and hit it the second it turns yellow and still can't get through checkout with it.

Thanks for the info. Would be nice to be able to buy a GPU [at MSRP], in the current market.

I use fixitfixitfixit on YouTube and that's how I managed to get a couple in my cart but could not check out quick enough. Closest Microcenter to me is 3hrs away. My local Gamestop has cards coming but they are on back order. I drive by there daily so I'll check in once a week and maybe get lucky. The one other place that does sell cards want's scalper prices so their out.

What store did he get the 3060 ti from?

My local Gamestop has cards coming but they are on back order. I drive by there daily so I'll check in once a week and maybe get lucky. The one other place that does sell cards want's scalper prices so their out.
I just asked my co-worker how he was able checkout quickly... and he said to have your payment method saved in your profile. When you checkout, all you have to enter is your security code. Hope this helps... and GL on the next drop. BTW, The Microcenter is an 1hr 1/2 from me (San Diego to Tustin). They have a 1 card purchase per day. It wasn't easy, but fortunately I was able to get a card on the 2 days I went. I talk to one person while waiting line who have drove from Arizona to buy a GPU. He ended up going home with a smile. I know it's been tough... so I hope it gets better and easier for everyone. EDIT... Here is what my co-worker sent me... Here's a breakdown of what worked for me: Signed into Best Buy site and go to the saved items section where I pre-saved a few cards. Once I hear multiple notifications from Discord, OctoShop, and YouTube, I refresh my saved items, and middle click the titles of the cards where the button shows "Add to Cart" so I'll have multiple tabs going. Once a few are open, I'll scroll down on each page so that the "Please Wait" button is kind of in the same position as the other tabs. Then I'll press Ctrl+Tab to scroll through each tab looking for the "Please Wait" to turn to "Add to Cart"
hope this helps... Jhenke What store did he get the 3060 ti from?
My co-worker only watches for Best Buy drops when the notifications come. He said that Best Buy has the best success rate in purchasing GPU's. He was able to get both his 3060 ti and 3070 xc3 ultra from the Best Buy website. The 3060 ti was shipped to his local Best Buy (they didn't mention where it originally came from), and the 3070 he decided to have them shipped to his house.

Stockdrops server actually offers a cool app i believe for donators only. It auto pops up drops. Doesn't check out for you but when something drops say on shuffle or BB the link will open in your browser. Hasn't gotten me anything yet but it is certainly a useful tool to have.

I am in that server and have never seen anything about that. Do you have a link to more info or a screenshot or something? You would think they would advertise the fact they have that to get people to donate.

Sorry for the big pictures but this is just a glimpse of the app. It has cheap subscription tiers and I THINK is available only to donators of the server at this current time. But i'm pretty sure you can donate like 5 bucks and get the donator title.
