I'd rather buy a $600 dollar lens for my camera; I'd use it alot more than a console. 11/21/2005 10:03:39 AM |

perhaps when halo III comes out
but i dunno, i might go to rent-a-center and rent it for 3 months or something
because after the fags on XBoxLive figure out all the cheats and hacks, its not worth playing anymore 11/21/2005 10:50:36 AM |

I got one. I'm happy. That's all that matters. 9 hours in line at Target was well worth the effort. Met some really cool people this morning.

Gonna wait till next fall when hopefully the price has dropped a bit and more games are out, and maybe a new revision is out to fix any problems this first one may/will have. 11/22/2005 10:50:15 AM |

i hate the ebay people
I mean, it's a great idea, it really is, and I can't blame anyone for doing it...it's just, I don't know, it seems wrong
But then again, I just saw one go on ebay for $5,300
so camping out all night for a profit like that isn't too bad 11/22/2005 12:59:49 PM |

If there is someone that will shell out that much money for it willingly, I don't see how anything is wrong with it. It makes me wish I would have done it.
If someone wants to pay upwards of $1,000, that's their choice I guess. the average price on the 1st and 2nd page is like $600-700 i'd take that profit.

Heh, in 4 years now I want to buy all the first shipment at the local BestBuy, walk out while everyone watches with them in a bunch of carts, and then set them on fire in the parking lot.
Or sell them all on Ebay and profit. However I feel like that day I guess. 11/23/2005 2:51:17 AM |

or you could turn money around quicker and easier and sell em for 700 a pop in the parking lot 11/23/2005 3:02:38 AM |

I waited in line at Wal-mart for one purpose, easy cash. I waited only two hours and someone offered me $300 for my spot in line. I took it and walked off happily. Stuck it away in my PS3 fund.
Got the idea when I waited in line with my friend when the PS2 was first released. I had mine preordered at a local game store that would open at 9 am, but my friend didn't want to be bored all night so I tagged along. I managed to score $200 that night when a person offered me money for my position in line. I swear, when people worry about sell-outs and really want the system, it seems they will pay almost anything. I think next year I'll wait in line for the new Jordan sneakers. Im sure people will pay good cash for that too. 11/23/2005 4:05:44 AM |

^^^ Did that piss people off in line behind you?
haha, for the ps3 maybe I'll go stand in some lines and have people offer me some money, that's a good idea
^ you know someone like stewart has a way to get a hold of one, there's like a warehouse for famous people
and I also wonder how many people got jobs at best buy/circuit city like 3 months ago in prep for this, so they could go in the back and put one aside for them.
