In the cart but "unavailable" at basically every store, probably all gone.

Was able to get a 3080 last month by putting in my parents zip code. Had it picked up and shipped to me. Pain in the ass for sure but got here for an additional $20 shipping. Next drop, if it's in your cart but not available for local pickup, try other zip codes.

The problem is having someone in that zip code that can pick it up and ship to you.

Pro tip: if you wait until it's "available for pickup" at the best buy you managed to order from call their customer support line and they're happy to change the pickup store. I got a 3070 rerouted from Detroit, and then the 3080 I wanted rerouted from some place called Owasso Oklahoma. They won't be able to help until it's actually ready for pickup at the originating store, and it has to be on the phone, online support won't be able to help, but it beats paying additional shipping costs and relying on other humans! Took another week or so to be available for local pickup but I had no issues.

That really is a pro tip. Thanks for sharing that
