Not at all impossible, just have to react quickly! Prices are ex-VAT due to being in Guernsey before anyone calls me out on those being fake.
A 3080 for less than 600 seems legit

As does your reading comprehension
Where can one find these alert Discords?
Out of interest, being on Guernsey, does that mean you tend to shop in France, UK or mixture?
Quite a few pages back in the 3080 thread I think, so pages after the release date - sorry, can't remember one I used or release date.
Found one but wasn't the one I used
CltrAltStock.com Discord
I did pay RRP or at least close to it but did have to pay more than my OCUK pre order as the model discord ‘chose’ for me was a more premium model. Actually OCUK store has it for £50 more!Indeed, the problem is that many of the stock drops are well above MSRP even from so called reputable retailers. I could have had a 3080 a few times over if I was prepared to pay well above MSRP by 15% - 20% or more in many cases. It takes people to be patient and not jump on the first GPU that appears at "well it's only £150 - £200 extra". So when a £600 - £650 GPU becomes a ~£750 - £850 GPU people can hardly claim "it easy to get one if you know how". Not that I am accusing you of this.
I did ironically end up with a 6800 ref from OCUK at £70 over MSRP, so I know it's so easy to say "sure it's only £70 more" but where is the cut off? I do understand it is diffrerent for everyone but when I see someone jump on a 3090 at £1600 because they lost patience I do kinda cringe, but each to their own.
Best thing anyone can do is not buy from any store that partakes in this scummy practise.
HOW? I dont believed you.
It impossible to get a 3080 when there was only 5 notifications on stockdrops channel through 8 to 22 Dec.
I question the professionalism / good taste of anyone who flaunts their wealth in their signature when communicating with their customers, especially in the current scalping climate.
Guess I’ll look at adding more groups on discord I only had the one the main one maybe I’ll get lucky soon.
gibbo said ocuk wernt selling stock till after Christmas, funny they are still selling 3090's and taking pre orders for them too. typical salesman if you ask me
