The unfortunate side effect of this situation is that scalpers\u00a0are now trolling gamers while also trying to rip them off.<\/p>\n<p>Third party sites such as\u00a0eBay and Amazon Marketplace are\u00a0unfortunately home\u00a0to a number of scalpers who are offering <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/tag\/nvidia\/\">Nvidia<\/a> RTX 3080 cards at staggering prices, and using the notification systems to promote their outrageous offers. Instead of being notified of real stock, gamers are seeing &#8220;deals&#8221; where the $699 graphics card is being sold for $5000,\u00a0just $503 less than\u00a0the\u00a0price for three RTX 3090s.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/nvidia-rtx-3080-launch-apology-botch\/\">Nvidia Apologizes for Botched RTX 3080 Launch<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The issue was so severe on\u00a0eBay that many gamers took action to combat the scalpers, including selling <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/gamers-griefing-rtx-3080-scalpers-fake-bids-paper\/\">&#8220;RTX 3080 Paper Edition&#8221; pieces of paper<\/a> to obscure scalper listings, and using bots to artificially inflate prices and prevent them from selling their stock. While some listings\u00a0have been\u00a0impacted, the odds are that many scalpers are still profiting at the expense of real gamers.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DeCloaK\/status\/1308074827073294336\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Following <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-bots-resellers\/\">the bot afflicted launch of the RTX 3080<\/a>, Nvidia announced it\u00a0would manually review orders to try and reduce the likelihood of those made by bots successfully obtaining stock. The company has already apologized for the launch, stated that several hundred bot orders have already been cancelled, and promised more stock to be delivered each week. It is of course difficult to manufacture new hardware in large numbers, but it does appear that companies are happy to take the positive publicity of selling out stock rather than wait for sufficient stock to be produced. In this case however, the significant negative publicity from the RTX 3080 launch may prompt Nvidia to reconsider its approach for its next major launch.<\/p>\n<p>Some gamers\u00a0are simply want\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegamer.com\/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-review-roundup\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">to be the first with new technology<\/a> that they accept paying inflated prices as part of the deal, fueling scalpers and making hardware launches a nightmare for gamers simply trying to buy a product. People are of course entitled to pay the price that they feel appropriate, but by giving big returns to scalpers they will inevitably put themselves in the same position for the next big hardware launch.<\/p>\n<p>While the situation would be reduced if manufacturers such as Nvidia <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/nvidia-3080-restock\/\">ensured that launches have decent supply levels<\/a>, the only real way to end scalping is for gamers across the world to\u00a0hold strong, and refuse to pay ridiculous prices to people who have no actual interest in gaming whatsoever.<\/p>\n<p>Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 is available in limited numbers now.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/gigabyte-reveals-rtx-30-series-cards-with-more-memory-20-gb-rtx-3080\/\">Gigabyte Reveals Upcoming RTX 30 Series Cards With More Memory &#8211; Including 20 GB RTX 3080<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2020\/9\/21\/21449506\/nvidia-rtx-3080-amazon-listings-price-gouging-trolling\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Verge<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Scalpers troll gamers awaiting Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 stock with Amazon and eBay notifications for &#8220;deals&#8221; at several thousand dollars.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":629,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Gamers Are Getting Amazon Alerts for Nvidia RTX 3080s At Ridiculous Prices - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Scalpers troll gamers awaiting Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 stock with Amazon and eBay notifications for \"deals\" at several thousand dollars."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/80051"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/629"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=80051"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/80051\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":80052,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/80051\/revisions\/80052"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=80051"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=80051"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=80051"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
