3080s being unlisted?

DrBalanced

We’re now down to 2 models even showing up. Does this mean these are the only ones going to be restocked from now on?

Hello @DrBalanced

Due to the limited stock and how hard it is to obtain these cards, we are changing our stock based off what we can and cannot get.  If we are able to get some of the cards that we unlisted or never had listed, it will show on our website as soon as they are added to our inventory.

Phillip, this isn’t exactly what I was told by chat.  I was told that the website may not be updated and the only way to confirm stock was to visit my local store.  

Mind double checking on what is correct?

Hello @T_C

I was mainly talking about the listing itself, and how stock can cause a listing to become unlisted or show that we do carry it.  If we believe that we are unable to get any more stock of a certain GPU model for a good while, we will unlist it.  If we do get it in stock, it will be relisted and it will show on our website.  

As per example, we are looking at a certain Gigabyte 3080, if we believe we will not be receiving stock of this model, we will unlist it, but if we have plans on getting it soon, we leave the listing up with "Out of Stock".

What you were told is actually correct. When we scan inventory in, the website is updated to reflect that, however it's important to keep in mind that the inventory is not updated until after it passes through the POS system, meaning we may have 5 cards listed as in-stock online, but if they are in a customers shopping cart in-store, you might not see them on the shelves and the inventory won't update to reflect that sale until after the checkout process is completed. The website inventory numbers also don't account for shrink via loss or theft, which requires manual inventory auditing. These are the reasons why the website might not accurately reflect what is actually on the shelves.

Sadly, even if you use the website to see the stock on the RTX 3000 series, I doubt they'll remain in stock long enough for that information to be useful to anyone. As @TSPhillipT mentioned, the supply of these cards are so limited that it's been almost impossible to keep any inventory on the shelves.
