I may try to get my hands on a 20G version (to sell ofcourse) I’ll use the money to buy a 360 and some games…lol I also wonder about how popular bluray is gonna be…Companies are really pushing HD DVD’s now. U can get HD DVD’s and base versions in a package for a good price…Still think the high end PS3 is a waste of $$$$…Only time will tell tho. ---

Sorry 1SloRT for not getting back to you. I actually forgot about it, but it wouldn’t have mattered anyways. FYE (where I pre-ordered 2) stopped taking pre-orders shortly after I got mine, and that was before you contacted me (I called them to see if they were still taking pre-orders after talking to you.) Anyways, FYE is only getting 6 on the first shipment (my pre-orders are close to that I know, but I don’t know what number I am. Guess I’ll find out on the 17th.) But I was told they may be getting more very shortly after. Regardless, I have a backup store that I know will have a few on release day, has no pre-orders, and I’m borderline guaranteed to get one 🙂 Who knows, maybe I’ll be selling 3-4 of these on eBay :bowrofl: ---

trying to make money on this is like being a nickel and dime drug dealer or a street ticket scalper. its hit or miss. My prediction is people will make maybe a extra hundred. Have fun cause you never know what its gonna be like weather wise and you are sitting outside at night waiting. you wanna make some money, take that money and invest in your retirement ---

I won’t be sitting outside anywhere, and a few hundred bucks (probably more) profit for picking up something at a store and then shipping them out doesn’t sound like a bad idea to me 🙂 ---

Yesterday I read an article that said they cut their initial production numbers from 100,000 to 80,000 due to problems manufacturing certain components. Based on what has happened in the past I foresee them being very scarce and the price will shoot up 25% over what they are selling for from the stores. When this happens, the 360 will drop in price. I’ll see if I can locate it and post the URL. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/playstation-3/184533.md?page=6) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/playstation-3/184533.md?page=8)
