Yeah.  Amazon is dropping constantly.  I subscribe to a discord for alerts and they go off all day long but it's pointless.  No possible way to click fast enough to get in cart and check out.  If Amazon had cart protection for even 1 minute it would make the difference, but as it is the shuffle and the queue are the only way to avoid scalpers and still get a card.  FWIW, the step up queue seems to have gotten very quick for 3070 and 3090 cards recently.  There will be the 3080Ti that will start a new queue, but like with the 3060s, I expect EVGA to be frozen, and unfreeze an hour into the queue.
 
Here's a queue tip.  Select the most expensive card, because EVGA doesn't seem to fulfill the lower tiers very often at all.  I learned that the hard way.


Good tips! Should signup all for 3080ti

I have a friend who runs a bot and he cant even score anything off of amazon. its honestly INSANE


yeah some bots are somehow better than others, so even if you get a bot it just turns into bot vs bot.

Don't bother with amazon, its botted heavily. Your chances are very slim there.

There would be a better chance for normal folks to get a GPU if they had larger and infrequent drops. Small drops ensure bots pick up all the cards.

Agreed, I’d rather be on the “ground floor” of a new queue.

What about bestbuy ? They seem to have regular drops which I could not buy despite being able to click the add to cart button and being sent to a wait state and then be told it is sold out ! Did anyone managed to buy something as a regular human buyer ?

It's very regional, I haven't been able to get one in Hawaii for months despite being on top of every drop, if it says it's out of stock, try changing your zip code if you have any friends in different regions.

I got a lot of bestbuy gift cards, that I wish the bots weren't dominating their drops.

It's hit or miss but I think best buy gives us a decent chance at a card.

Will it come back soon?

Do you use bots? That’s the only reason I can think you would want amazon drops. If you are going to use bots (for scalping), get out. If you are using bots to buy cards for anything else, hello! the queues have been dry as hell, if that’s any indication.

dude, calm down, some people are literally trying to get cards anywhere they can, don't assume crap.

Unless you’re paying for the most expensive bots, you’ll never get the ones on BB or Amazon. Best chance is signing up for the queue.

I've been clicking on Amazon stock alerts for 4 6 months and never once beat a bot. steals it right out of my cart everytime.
