The problem is, the only way that person would get in trouble for it at all would be if the person that buys it reports to eVGA what the Serial Number on the card is & then eVGA bans whoever originally registered that card from ever being able to buy on their site again.  That's the worst thing that could happen to them.
Governments need to get with the times & pass legislation like they did for ticket scalping, for electronics, so that people can face serious consequences for this stuff.  I get that supply & demand is a thing, and people are willing to pay over market to get stuff NOW when things are in a shortage, but when things are selling for twice their actual MSRP, that's a little on the insane side imo.
I check the other day & 3080s are still nearly-insta-selling on EBay when sold as Buy It Now, for $1300-$1500, at least a few a day.  EBay literally doesn't care because they make money off things all the same, it's not their job to police such things.  eVGA can't really do a whole lot either other than ban anyone who's caught doing it from being able to purchase on the site again, and I don't know if they'll go that far.
I'm just glad they implemented the queue system, otherwise I'd still be waiting to even GET a 3080.  Hopefully they continue to use that when the Hybrid cards, 3070s and next generation comes out, so that people like us that actually buy the cards to USE them, have a legitimate chance to get one in at least somewhat of a timely manner.

People still sell tickets at a mark-up on websites like stubhub/ticketmaster. A great example would be you waited all night to purchase one great seat for a show and sold it last minute so you could afford to take your little brother along with you in semi decent seats).
Think about having to plan for a last minute flight somewhere the day before Christmas, surge pricing.
 
Electronic companies won't do anything neither would any company in any industry if they saw people fighting/paying above market for their items on third party sites it'll only increase demand due to FOMO or brand awareness compared to ASUS etc.
Look at other brands Apple Supreme Chanel and Hermes albeit fashion/designer handbags etc only increase in value over the years compared to electronics.
Some toys double/triple their MSRP too after you've missed out on purchasing it when it was available.
 
EVGA cards will become available to everyone who wants one eventually.
 
The govt does have laws against price gouging masks and hand sanitizers/lysol etc since its effects everyone's health.

The problem is supply.  Based on how slowly cards are selling thru the queue.  And the retailers over in Europe.  The supply is just bad,  cards are in the 100s instead of the 1000s.  So it's a scalpers paradise.  Nvidia should of never launched unless they could of done a lot more.  EVGA still hasn't finished the first day of the queue yet

Yeah it is getting pretty ridiculous now.
There is a Zotac Gaming 3090 listed on Amazon for just under 3K.
Crazy.

No big stock drops this week at all. Just some pathetic sprinklings of bundle deals on Newegg that my notifications never saw and were gone in seconds. I’m so tired of looking at this point. As for the EVGA queue, I’m slated for mid-January just to BUY the card. That means in-hand is likely February, or nearly FIVE MONTHS after “release”. Let that sink in.

It's not illegal.
It's not immoral.
It's an inconvenience to those who are spoiled. (I'm in this category.)
Tensions are high, and people are upset because they can't get what they want. Regardless of what anyone's profession is, the unobtainable nature of the cards isn't costing anyone their lives or health, aside from people letting it raise their blood pressure.
The Government needs to stay out of it. The real issue is self-control. 
Oh, you wanted to go to a concert, but now tickets are ridiculous? Deal with it. There are people with life-threatening conditions that can't get affordable medications, because the Government got involved. (Looking at you, FDA.)

Bravo, well said!
