Ppl are paying over $1000 for this POS? http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?sssdmh=dm4.159193&articleID=174402295
There is always something wrong when something is brand new, just released. As for the 1k+ people are paying, thats the most idiotic thing ive seen in a long time.
there was somthing wrong with some of the first batches. Microshaft said not to worry they would be fixing them if they broke.
usually the first release systems has the most problem. whoever is paying $1000 they are dumb as hell.
those REALLY INTO IT gaming geeks need to have it... im not a major gaming geek and will NEVER pay more then what i can get it if i wait
Go to Ebay and search on xbox360, you'll be suprized at all the morons willing to pay x amount of money for a faulty system. I would never pay more for an item then what it's worth. Damn, I wish I could've waited in line for one then sell it on Ebay for $1500+

i did something relatively close to this one time, but not for that much profit. last november, my current favorite and only online game came out; world of warcraft! the game sold out extremely quick... within the 1st hour of store openings. if you did not reserve a copy, you're not going to get one until near christmas unless by random luck. i happened to fall into a few copies (5) when it came out, and the store manager was not willing to let me part with 5 copies! i pleaded my case with him, saying that all my buddies had pooled money and given it to me, and being that i lost the bet, i had to go and buy them all the game. after 3 minutes of intense customer relation skills and BS, i made my purchase and was on my way home to enjoying a few minutes on eBay, listing the game away. to my astonishment, i had purchased the games for $49.99 each and within a few hours, my auctions had garnished up to an amazing $150.00! when all was said and done, i had profitted over $600.00 on 4 of the games, being i kept one for myself. so you see, the moral of the story is, if you know somethings going to be a HOT item when it comes out, it's not a bad idea to drain the economy for what's it's worth to someone else.
