others I have been watching have gone for about $5000 which seems more realistic. However, that is still a ridiculous amount of money for a game console
 
Yes, but how, using a little tiny shread of your loaf could you think anyone on this earth would pay 81 Million Dollars for a one, clear scam/bid up/stolen ebay account, look at it how you will.

Is that the wasteland I can see on the horizon?
 
Now that I can see. I wonder how many people that bought them on release day are keeping them? A lot of money to be made.

However, 0 feedback? Maybe just a little too much.
 
is the only way to get the ps3 is from pre-orders? I was on my way to work this morning and noticed a few tents out at a few electronic stores. Do they have a chance of getting one?
 
okay, I can see people spending double the cost on one of these. But 7100??!?!?! Jesus Christ. That's almost the grand total I can get off of unemployment.

Maybe I should have borrowed 600 bucks and waited a few days in the cold colorado weather, IF I knew people were going to spend that much, I'd have a nice little cushion to sit on right now.
 
Why does anyone spend several thousand dollars on a gaming consol, when they could just wait a little while and get it for much less?
