I'm an xbox guy over ps3 (although I dont really play consoles), but anybody keeping up with this launch stuff? i went to best buy yesterday around 6 pm and people had tents already. supposedly best buy is getting about 26, wal mart around 12, circuit city around 12, target around 8 and a few for kmart. so we're talking like 60-70 units for lubbock... i'd love to get my hands on one... make a quick grand or so.

I know there was at least one tent set up outside circuit city last night at about 8:00pm or so ...

I'm fucking sorry but is the PS3 launch really that big of fucking deal?

the funny thing is that everyone that i've talked to that is getting one on launch day (camping out) is that 100% of them are selling them on ebay.

now, who paid attention to supply and demand in ECON1301?

I'm curious if there will be a backlash - if not enough people are going to pay the ridiculous prices.

would be intersting. I talked to one of the guys today at wal-mart. Told me the inside scoop about everything happening. He told me that target was not letting people camp out for it. So that is the only place a mad dash will happen. Anyone want to go with me to target in the morning? Not to actually get one, but to beat people during the mad dash!

Highest bidder has a rating of 0.


If I was sellin one of these, I'd try to keep it to Craigslist, and deliver it to the person at their house or somethin. I'd be real leary of somebody handing over 2k in cash.

exactly what i was getting at. sure, some people are gonna get lucky and get some cash, but i have a sneaky feeling that most of them are gonna end up going for about retail, or maybe even less, just because nobody is going to pay that much.
