There are no more shortages. Companies just raised their stock prices.

I mean...

There absolutely still are widespread, massive shortages.

As of the time I post this, all models of all RTX 50 series cards are completely out of stock at every large online retailer, other than resellers/scalpers on Ebay.

BestBuy, B&H, NewEgg, Amazon... literally 0 available stock.

Yes, they did also raise their prices, but there is still a massive stock shortage.

99% sure MicroCenter is also effectively completely out of stock for any online purchaser as well, as they basically only ship if you're within a one to two hour drive of one of their physical store locations, and they don't actually have very many locations...
