From PC Mag: That didn’t take long. Nvidia’s latest GPU, the RTX 3090 Ti, launched on Tuesday, and already third-party merchants are demanding interested buyers pay an extra $1,000 or more to own the card.
The RTX 3090 Ti is supposed to start at $1,999. But on Newegg, you can find some third-party merchants attempting to sell it for $2,999 or $3,236. The worst offender is a listing for a Founders Edition RTX 3090 Ti, which went up for sale on Best Buy on Tuesday for $1,999. One merchant has decided to sell the card for a ridiculous $3,849.
Ironically, you’re better off buying the product on eBay, a place where scalpers regularly sell electronic goods. The site’s Terapeak tracking tool shows over a dozen confirmed sales for various RTX 3090 Ti models but at prices closer to $2,700.
