the random queue time worked, but somehow it prevents me from adding to cart (tried 5600x) and issue is resolved by disabling this extension. Not sure if best buy bans this extension or not.

Stolen code hijacked and repackaged into a rebranded extension with zero mention of where and whom they stole their code from. This code is stolen from GPU Drops extension, something you can tell by comparing the code side by side. The only change has been the name GPU Drops removed and replaced with nerdspeak. While legally they might be okay with stealing others code, such thievery should not be encouraged or endorsed. They would rather ban and hide the facts instead of just admitting what they did and getting the proper permission.

This extension is the GOAT. I'd give it 6 stars. For manual users, it's the best chance you have.
