It’s not an uncommon issue, but it’s also not unreasonable that the vendor supplying the card (not amazon) is fucking with end users as price changes come up.
Vendor buys a 32GB 5090 for $6500, you order the card for $7500 on Monday, the price on 5090’s explodes Tuesday morning and now the card is going for $9500. An ‘issue’ comes up with your order. they can take one person bitching about their bait and switch for 2 grand.
From the times I’ve had to order work hardware, I don’t think I’ve ever had any video cards that were actually sourced form amazon, it’s always a vendor.
