This is insane - ps3's going for a minimum of 1,700 bucks - and I'm sure that's going to get even higher as the release date passes. My dad might be getting one as I'm speaking - if he does, I just made a lot of money. 3,000 dollar PS3
That is so overpriced its not even funny. There is no way my parents are going to gibe me a PS3 for 1,000 bucks. Imm not that spoiled.
My dad and his friend were going to try and buy 5-10 of them each, and then re-sell them on Ebay. If you are lucky enough to get ahold of one, You are going to make alot of money.
I'm going to run by Best Buy tonight. Supposedly they are doing it based on a raffle system, so it doesn't matter if you get there 10 minutes before midnight or 3 days prior, as I can tell. If I get my number picked, it's like a free $1400.

All he had to do was buy them and sell them for double.
Can't do it here in Austin... all the Bestbuys have cops in the parking lot and they have been ticketing people who try to line-up for outside the store before 6AM tomorrow morning.

I don't see the point, because as I said, everyone gets a raffle ticket. Might as well show up at 11:30 or something.
