They've already shipped out cards that came in today for processing! Just got my tracking number, should be here Wednesday. Looks like the turnaround is same-business day. Especially for an observed holiday..

Observered Holiday in Canada as it is Thanksgiving here the US has Columbus day, but it is not a holiday in California.

It seems some cards have shipped which is great but I wonder if any Step 2's will be going out at all this week.

Jacob confirmed there will be a drop this week.  There was just no shipment yesterday probably due to the holiday and maybe delayed shipment/customs due to China just finishing up their Golden Week on the 8th.  EVGA's supposed large shipment this week is probably today or tomorrow and we'll see the next batch of notifications later.

It may have been a customs delay because it's a government type holiday in the US.  Or something like that... Outside of the USPS almost all shippers that I'm aware of do not observe Columbus Day.  Doesn't really matter in the end I guess.

I just hope it happens sometime today or tomorrow. If I get allocated a card this week, I'm hoping to get through all the steps by Friday so I can overnight the card Saturday evening. I do most of my gaming as time allows Friday evenings and Saturdays, so hopefully I can have the 3080 in hand by the next Friday evening as I chose 2nd Day Air rather than overnight (probably stupid in hindsight). 
 
EDIT: Never mind, wife would kill me if I paid $130 to overnight to Brea, CA. Looks like I'll have to give up gaming for a week whenever I get allocated the card :(

I'm on the east coast.  I can't justify any price over normal shipping due to the sky rocketing cost lately.  I have a backup card, so I'll live with playing low requirement games until I get mine (well, when it's my turn to send it in).

Ya I was quite shocked to see how much it would be for anything above 2nd Day Air right now. I'll just need to get it to a UPS store right away if I want to pay a reasonable price and have it in time for Watch Dogs Legion (the first of many amazing upcoming games). My CPU actually has onboard graphics (I7-10700k), just not sure what games it could reasonably play on its own. I have my PC hooked up to my living room tv and have been playing at 4k, mostly high quality. If I drop it to 1080p low just to take advantage of the onboard graphics, just wonder if the change would be too dramatic and noticeable for me enjoy (not hating on anyone playing 1080p low, I just have a 4k tv and like to take advantage of it).
