Nuked The 2020 holiday shopping season has been defined by how difficult it is to purchase consoles like the ps5 and GPUs like the GeForce rtx 3090. Some people use other, less legal methods to get both products up for resale.
Around $ 340,000 worth of GeForce rtx were stolen from MSI, according to Tom’s hardware. That amounts to 40 containers of the popular cards, based on the translation of an internal document from MSI.
Msi has been officially announced and informed to the police, reward of 100000 RMB for reporting effective information. The Chinese mainland factory was stolen, stolen 40 boxes rtx3090, the total value of 22000rmb.
The GeForce rtx 3090 sits at the high end of NVIDIA’s line at $ 1,499. Msi’s communications cite video surveillance and inspections of each truck as the main security for GPUs shipping out of warehouses.
Thieves use cars, one in front of a delivery truck and one behind, to slow down the truck from the front and open its back while standing on the hood of the car that’s following. The Times says it’s been used 27 times this year, increasing in frequency as holiday shipments have started to carry more and more expensive products.
We tried to document our one’s unveiling, but Amazon have tricked us with an unsolicited air fryer instead (after giving delivery password).
Customers received a’ps5′ box with resealed tape different from Amazon’s traditional prime-branded black version. Conversations with current Amazon employees suggested that it would be very difficult to smuggle ps5s out of an Amazon warehouse. As of now, affected customers are receiving actual ps5s, and the culprits remain unknown.
The true prices are n’t $ 499 for a ps5 and $ 1,499 for a GeForce rtx. We saw average prices of the ps5 reach $ 1,024 and GeForce rtx 3090 averaging $ 2,076 when we last surveyed eBay you can start to see why both products have become the targets of thieves.
