tiger direct and new egg seem to be selling the 4090 for $98 over MSRP. It's not ideal but it's not to the level of scalpers marking them up $600+

I got my 3080 at Best Buy about a year or so ago, just got lucky- they were on the shelf.

tiger direct doesn't have any 4090's in stock and of the ones in stock at newegg the cheapest one is 2100ish dollars unless I'm missing something?

Damn, sorry to send you in the wrong direction there. Wait until after the holidays... and maybe tax return season.

They were in stock not but a month ago. I got an e-mail from New Egg that had Zotac and 2 other 4090's with a huge heading that said "4090's back in stock".

I suspect the disruption will square itself out when we all go back to our seasonal depression in February.

lol, they were never "IN-STOCK". At least, not the way you think. They were in-stock for about 1 minute, at best.

Did those E-mails happen to tell you how MANY those site had in-stock? Having 1 or 1,000 both qualify as in-stock.

I had to follow a YT channel and Discord server that are made specifically to scrape most large retailers for in-stock 4090's. Every time one comes in stock, It goes out of stock within seconds. And whenever a site got any in-stock, It was only ever in small batches, And they'd space out the sale of them too. If they got 20 cards in, They'd sell 5 at a time, and drop each set of 5 like 10 - 20 minutes apart.
