They saying that GPUs might stay this high up especially with the new lovelace tech that is coming out.
I think these prices will be the new norm
The 40 series is gonna be 2x as powerful as the 30 series so it will actually be worth the prices
the 3080 was deal at 700, over 1000 is not worth it for the performance even compared to the 3060, it cost three times as much as a 3060 but it's not even double the performance
crypto should crash before the 40 series release so I doubt the prices will stay this high and a lot of miners will flood the used market with their GPUs
