I've had the opposite experience recently.

Last month a fan failed on my 2080 Ti, which I bought in 2018, I contacted the retailer and they said they've started to replace fans on GPU's themselves because of the shortage situation. Great, works for me.

A week later I got an email saying they're replacing it with a 3080. Slight upgrade at no additional cost.

"slight" got quite the chuckle out of me. You are quite lucky!

Which manufacturer? I've had good luck with EVGA and terrible luck with MSI, but that's pretty anecdotal.
