Yeah, I wrote a fairly popular bot in late 2020 aimed at helping people get gpus instead of scalpers and it managed to help at least a few hundred people. I encouraged everyone to not give in to the scalpers because fuck them.

My 3070 Ti (which I got from a NewEgg lottery) died recently and I replaced it with a 4070 Super from OfferUp for $550 which is a pretty decent upgrade.
