I have been watching these auctions. These prices are unreal.

[ET Awful]

1. There was one earlier today that went for 15k

I have a feeling the seller was being screwed around by fake bids, but at auction close it was at $15k

2. My boyfriend is playing his right now

and I think he is so stupid to not sell it. If people are willing to pay ridiculous amounts of money...

[WindRavenX]

3. damn, you are one lucky lady

My SO and I are buying one next year...we can't wait for MGS4 and FFXIII.

[Divameow77]

10. I wish...

I like video games a little but not the sports or racing games he likes to buy. The guy plays World of Warcraft online all the time but he buys the games he does for his 360 or PS3... :shrug:

5. No kidding. He could pocket thousands now and buy one...

in six months for the same price or even lower.

Your boyfriend couldn't honestly tell me he's played out whatever game system he was already using. That's just not possible.

6. I doubt it.

Thousands of people have got the same idea. Only a tiny fraction of people are going to be turning a pretty profit.

8. He could buy a new one and a 1080p TV to play it on.

:tv:

[Divameow77]

12. He already has the

TV, some big screen high def something or other, I think its 60 inch...

4. The guy who sold it for $7,100 is in literally the next town over from me...

if only I had an extra 7 grand to throw around I wouldn't have to pay for shipping lol

9. Yeah, people are morons.

[ContraBass Black]

11. $10 that most of those people offering PS3 on ebay

Don't really have them.

[YOY]

13. There are alot of idiots with too much disposable income

Can't wait 2 or 3 months can they?

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. Unfortunately there are even more idiots with high interest rate credit cards...

:(

[YOY]

19. Just sad they can't wait a little...

and that's coming from a gamer. Then again, I work two jobs and take care of my family.

Nothing more pathetic than a fanboy/girl.

[JI7]

15. what is the average price it is sold at in stores ?

[YOY]

16. Depends on the model

600$ for standard, 800$ for primo.

[Cathyclysmic]

17. It's only going to be readily available in another few months.

Cheez louise...$7100?

[Deja Q]

18. Will the people actually pay the dough?

I'm tempted to bid on a bunch, just to win them, and risk having my account banned.

ebay is a joke.

So are the folks who get promoted on television for paying people to stand in line for them, just to buy a $500 game so he can sell it for (in theory) 5~15x more. That's insane and nobody, just nobody, would spend that much money on a game console. Not even an Atari 2600, whose graphics may be a bunch of square blocks but the games were sure as hell fun... except the porno titles, they left a LOT to the imagination... playstation 3 has the Atari 2600 licked...
