ye but when they are freaking out about it, and the publicly disclosed bad offender is some guy bought like 42, and some guy bot 17 etc
i mean that matters if you only have like 500 cards or something, but if they had a bunch like say 5000, wouldnt really matter, but if newegg only got like 150 total
edit:
like if they had 1000 3090, 2500 3080, and 5000 3070, if some dude bought like 100 3080s wouldnt even had been noticed
thatâs 1/25. and youâre assuming only one person got 100.
if the whole inventory was sold out within just a few minutes then there wasnât that much stock to begin with.
still, I hope it bites those scalpers in the butt and they canât find anyone to sell them to.
ye but was they were complaining a few people bought more than like 10
not some guy was lording over everyone with like 400, like probably were gonna sell out within 30min or something anyways
ex:
Free market and all, but itâs still scummy af.
And multiple people being douchebags instead of one giant douchebag doesnât really make a difference.
ye but they are like several bought 1 to more than 30, not hundreds bough dozens or something
like 15 people curbed the entire market and none of them bought more than 50, and they are saying its those guys fault you cant buy a card
like pretty sure they had more of those titan Xp star wars edition cards then the 3080s lol
still, doesnât really make a difference. those guys didnât buy them to use them. they bought them to resell them for a profit on day 1.
does though, just using a handful of guys as fall guys for them not shipping with any reasonable number, when would be same problem, it sell out instantly and no one have any and have to wait a month to try again
the issue is people buying multiples of an item with very limited stock to resell it for profit.
ye but nvidia store didnt limit their number of card purchases thats their fault
just like deciding to launch with a tiny amount of cards, which would just piss everyone off when they sell out instantly, if it wasnt the random guys, maybe 100-200 other people would have them, but what does that change for the other couple thousand people waiting?
edit:
like cant scalp something if theres an excess supply of it, only works for limited quantity items, them shipping with like 1/10th or even less what they knew they should have had(and was rumored beforehand as well that was gonna be nonexistent stock) and they did nothing to ensure that people would only be able to order 1 per household or something like that either
feel like they knew it was gonna happen, and 50/50 bots/randoms would take blame instead of them, or just claim public intrest was so great in our amd devastating products, while still being able to launch before amd without looking like amd got under their skin(although they would never have launched 3090 at same time if they didnt) but more for share holders probably, bad look if amd announces some shit, then they delay a month to wait for more stock for a good launch
Iâm not saying Nvidia wasnât partly at fault there. Having limited stock and not putting any measures up to prevent people from buying more than one should at least have made it more difficult for scalpers.
they created the situation.
those might give in and buy from those scalpers. just like with the nintendo switch, amiibos (a lot of other nintendo products actually), the ps5, etc.
itâs just an annoying situation and the solution to prevent it wouldâve been more stock ready at launch.
ye dunno in this case mean, if you were the had to go to work/deal with kids or whatever and couldnt be on there in the 5min window you had no chance anyways, only thing would have helped them is like a curated preorder list where they verify only 1 per house hold etc/wait for more stock something
Donât think I wonât change the forums cookie message to this
