Ive seen the basic console with 1 remote and the sports game sell for as high as $545 + 40 shipping on ebay. Its F’n nuts. I hope mine goes for that much!

They were selling for $600+ for a while, then they went from 12,000 to 19,000 available on eBay. I’m selling one of mine for a profit, but less than what they could get it for on ebay and shipping. Got to make a few extra bucks for Christmas gifts Plus mine comes with an extra nunchuck and remote, bonus
Nintendo is being the OPEC of the video game industry by keeping the supply low to increase the price. People seem to be selling them off pretty quickly though, so my previous statement that it is a fad system with no real staying power still stands.

WTF happened there? Ive been watching the auctions for the best time to list my Wii FS and it seems the prices have dropped a little. Maybe everyone else was waiting to do the same.
look at this chat to see how badly the Wii is crushing everything else. I don’t they are limiting supply like neurokinetik thinks http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php
