Yeah, it's been pretty bad in recent months. They've managed to completely circumvent any of the measures BB had in place. Last month I did hear through the grapevine they were trying to fix it but I haven't heard anything since.

Meanwhile, this isn't a big surprise since, to my knowledge, there's not a single location in the U.S. that is selling Ampere cards in store yet. Pretty sure that MC have been the only ones and even that's gotten pretty crazy at times.

edit: I know the story says BB sent the 3080 Ti to physical, but ours didn't get any and I'd be suprised if any arrived in our state at all. We're ususally luck to get dust cakes. Although, if another Paul Blart movie comes out, we'll be sure to get a few hundred thousand copies of those.
