You’d be crazy if you didn’t try to tripple/quadruple your money.

Bring it up in a conversation with your friend… which he’d rather have, a PS3, or a large sum of money. If he wants the PS3 and REALLY is your best friend, that would be an awesome gift. If he’s okay with money, hell yeah! Sell it, share the profit with him.

why is the price so high and why are people stupid enough to buy it for that much? I thought they were going to be like $800 or something. Imagine a year or so down the road, looking back at how much you spent on and what you could have bought instead. …

The big thing why they are selling for so much is becuz Sony cut their shipment to N.A. in half.

Only 400 000units where sent to all of N.A. …50% less than were expected.

…the other big reason ppl are going crazy for them is becuz there will not be another shipment before Christmas.

…so if you wanted to give one for a present…then you’re out of luck, the next shipment is edit: mid Spring.

$820.00 CDN

10K buys you a decent 180sx.

I can’t even play mine regardless of selling or keeping becuz it’s a present.

I went to the Walmart in Sherwood Park yesterday to see if anyone was waiting outside. There were seven people and the manager said they had eight consoles. I could have been the eighth and got one… but waiting for 17 hours outside Walmart didn’t seem worth it… in hindsight maybe I should have stayed and made some quick cash.

I’m disappointed I didn’t reserve like 4 of them, and then sell them off for double to triple the price. I would have done so too, but I was out of the country when the reserves went.
