  1. They are in stock everywhere
  2. Nvidia is not the only one selling cards. There are a dozen brands to choose from. If you needed one, wouldn't you pay even more money for a functional one vs. one knee-capped because the OEM saved $0.005 on cheap thermal paste?
  3. These brands sell other products besides GPUs and it hurts their brand
  4. We weren't talking exclusively about GPUs.
