The guy who won had never won an item on ebay before and was a member less than 1 month. Probably not going to pay, but who knows.
There were two guys who were long term high rated bidders who bid over 10K including the guy who came in second.


I checked other xbox 360 for sale and the market appears to be flooded now. Tons are for sale, most that are ending this min at about 600-800 each, with only one up to 1K.

I do use my PSTwo in the bedroom as the DVD player, but that's only to save space.

Personally I wouldn't pay $400 for it, soley for the lack of game right now..in a year with the system is down to $300 or $250, it's in a little better range.

However, I really don't see myself getting any of the new gen systems...at least not anytime soon.

I suppose if I used it rarely enough. But given that you can buy a perfectly capable DVD player for about $30 these days (half the price of a single game), I'd have a hard time getting excited about the feature or thinking it added value to the unit.

[Old Man]Back in my day, our video game system was an old log! You'd kick it and centipedes would rush out and sting you in the balls! And we liked it![/Old Man]

The 'hype'for getting these new systems and the unrealistic market force they create,is hilarious. Why not just wait a year?

I still enjoy my playing my old PS2 and like the fact I can get many of the games dirt cheap and even cheaper if I buy them used, to me it is worth the wait.

Given the price of computers these days, I think it is really stupid to pay that for a console. But, my husband is an avid console lover, so we will probably shell out for the PS3. It will certainly be a big gift though, like birthday or something - we aren't just going to run out and grab it. The price is so painful though...I would still prefer to have a pc. Different strokes I suppose. He didn't understand why I wanted to pay what I did for my laptop *shrug*

Every time something like this happens I always dream of doing such things, but I never do. *shrug*

Hehehe.. you do that

<buzzer sound>

Incorrect!

With a Europe and Asia launch in the near future, the next widespread shipment in the US is not expected until January/February at the earliest.

3 of my Friends stayed outside of Best Buy from 9:30 pm till 7 am to get 3 of em. 2 were ebayed and the other I played on last night.

Its pretty nifty but not $400 impressive, the graphics and gameplay upgrades are nice, but when you are used to playing your xbox on a 44" LCD with component cables it isn't a massive upgrade ...

For those wondering, I have not heard if the 2 have sold or not, he changed one of the auctions from 3 day to 1-day to get a quick sale, I doubt it worked.

you forgot "Tickle Me" Elmo.

Super Hot at the time. Parents were getting into fist fights while running through the store to the display. Old women were being trampled when they got in the way.

That makes me laugh for some reason...

Meh, he didnt really forget those since he stated items from the 80's. Tickle me Elmo is the lame little brother to Cabbage Patch Kids in the toy market.
