You most likely would have to return it. Nvidia is very strict on the dates. Also, the codes are provided by the retailers not the manufacture. EVGA has their own store.
NVIDIA sales aren't necessarily have to be in bad position for them to offer these game bundles, they offer these throughout the year, even with fresh releases of GPUs and mostly, it's AAA titles like these.
If you plan on buying a game itself anyway, you can plan your purchase accordingly and see this as a $60 discount to your purchase when you get a free game.
Just learned about this bundle! Bought my 1080ti Monday... the 25th after getting out of work @ 11:15pm. >.<. Missed the deal by minutes. Got it off Newegg too... so can't return it and reorder it without restocking tax and shipping costs. Which would be the same price as the game full retail.
"(or while supplies last)" what does that even mean? These are digital downloads. When companies like this make such offers, it should be unlimited for the all cards purchased in the period. And if they can't negotiate that with the publisher, then don't make the offer.
While supplies last means that retailers only get a certain amount initially. If they run out of codes to hand out with each sale, they have the option to request more codes - but not all retailers have the possibility to do so.

EVGA. I haven't played the first one, so I don't know if this one would be worth returning it, and buying it again.lioncat55 - Wednesday, September 27, 2017 - link
