Do you guys know if I can keep that EVGA sticker included with the 3070ti? Or am I supposed to send that back along with the GPU?

Except for step 5, that's almost exactly what I got. Did you get the 3070ti at a Microcenter as well?
 
Also how are you shipping it out? Using the original box it came in or a different one?

September 2nd? Wow, my step 1 was only a couple of weeks after that. Makes me wonder if supply was so bad over the summer that not many were able to register between June and September.

was going to do a step up from my 3070ti ftw to 3080 ftw ultra in north america
but it's not available now! Maybe the 3080 ftw is missing temporarily and will be back available in a day or so ?   
I have only until dec 8 to step up also.. 
 
 
 

3080 was removed due to stock demands. We do not have a ETA of when it will be available back on Step Up. We do apologize for the inconvenience. 

I entered the step up queue on September 28th.. so right before they closed it. Seeing some of the dates here I'm hoping for next week if there is a drop. They have been tearing through these lately.

Hopefully some helpful info for others here

Shipped my card FedEx Ground today (should arrive Monday), and had paid for next-day shipping, so it looking forward to it!
 
Though a part of me hopped that it might get delayed and I'd be offered to purchase one of the rumored cards with more vram.

I must have got in with one of the last 3080 step ups then. Step 1 was 10/11/21. I believe they were at 1/1/21 when I signed up and they have been cruising ever since.
