The asus.de store had 3080s tuf non oc earlier and 3070s too at decent prices I think €550 for the 3070 and €720 for the 3080, so if they sell at a what Asus decide to be MSRP it really highlights the gouging going on by ocuk and scan and others

Well **** think I just got a founders edition 3070 for €520 from the French outlet, had to send it to an address of a friend in France, will see if this all works. Once again that Twitter PartAlert is amazing.

A steal......

I see alternate.de have a Zotac 3080 in stock. I went to the last step in paypal, but I see they have deducted the German VAT rate of 16%? Doesn't make any sense, they are obliged to charge VAT (if not Irish VAT rate) if shipping within the EU I would have thought.

KillerShamrock · 04-11-2020 6:44pm

A 3090 here https://webshop.asus.com/de/komponenten/grafikkarten/nvidia-serie/2823/asus-tuf-rtx3090-o24g-gaming

I guess you could set up a mailbox.de and get it that way but it it worth it with the 6900xt due next month

Have been getting alerts via telegram and that kip Alternate are RAPING people with the prices....I thought OCUK were bad.

Darwin · 04-11-2020 8:36pm

Yes hard to believe anyone is worse than OCUK when it comes to price gouging. Like I said the price was only €759 in the paypal basket, but I didn't buy it as I figure they would have cancelled my order due to the VAT glitch.

Wonda-Boy · 04-11-2020 8:47pm

Right now, CCLonline have a gigabyte RTX3080 Eagle in stock and ready to go if anyone is interested....bundled with COD aswell.

Darwin · 04-11-2020 8:56pm

799 though, should be only 720!

Ahh now, if that was the card I wanted I would not be splitting hairs over an extra 70 quid with the grand scheme of things.

I think we are starting to see a little light at the end of the GREEN TUNNEL with stock trickling through.

Hopefully by the end of the month we should see an improvement, FINGERS XROSSED.

40+ notifications from Partalert on twitter, gues 3070s landed everywhere.

I'd have probably gone for it at that price too, but it was actually OOS.

Yeah but some of those prices are crazy

dreamers75 · 05-11-2020 12:18pm

Pinning my hopes on 2 3080s ordered weeks ago for €737 each via work supplier.

Typical, mass produce the card that peeps want the least.

To be honest I'd say the 3070 is probably going to be the biggest seller for them. For most of us here yeah the 6800XT and 3080 is what we're after, but most consumers won't be willing to splash out that much for their sub 1k builds. Especially when you look at the likes of the steam surveys where the 1060, 1050ti, 1650, 1070 are the most common cards in use.

dreamers75 · 05-11-2020 12:46pm

Just noticed Alternate seem to be gaming the part alert twitter by adding single cards "available soon" to get traffic to the site.

Anyone take a chance on Alternate? They have a 3080 there now for €819

They were originally removed off the partalert, not sure why he put them back in it. They were selling cards that weren't actually in stock for a good while. Don't ship outside of Germany either I don't think so you'd have to use mailbox.de and get it forwarded

I know a friend ordered a 3080 back as soon as they went on sale. Still hasn't been shipped. MSI card. He is located in the netherlands also.

The 3070 will outsell the 3080 by several multiples.

The 3060 will outsell both.

EoinHef · 05-11-2020 1:13pm

Muted the part alert a few days ago,been waiting this long might aswell see the benchmarks for AMDs offering.

That and the prices of the 3080s on most of the part alert...eh alerts.
