wait, so im looking on ebay and did someone actually buy the "xbox 360 box" for good money? [censored] ridiculous.

dirty tried to convince me to come down to union square to wait in line with him and evan so i could get an xbox and sell it on ebay, but i figured it wasnt worth the time and effort since I could mke that much playing poker in that amount of time without waiting outside with nasty people and going through the ebay hassle.

Knowing someone who works at Wal-Mart, this is going to the case country wide. Her store got 9.

I'm sorry...but unless the 360 includes a penile input for virtual sex, it is not worth paying $2250 for.

You give me 10 percent of the final sale price, and I'll list and sell it for you. I have perfect feedback.

The whole strip club thing is an inside joke Matty, don't worry if you don't understand. Plus, the Milk Man is only 17, for 35 more hrs at least.

Re: XBox 360, Only 14 Consoles at WalMart???????
 
I don't really see myself planning a trip to a strip club, but I definitely see a 2am "dude lets go to scores right now" trip as something which is much more likely.

yeah, my birthday is on thanksgiving every couple years.

11-22-2005 02:09 PM

Re: XBox 360, Only 14 Consoles at WalMart???????
 
Um, $5,600? I wonder if the winners are actually going to follow through with their purchase.

I decided it wasn't worth it to wait in line for 12 hours and call in to work. I guess I was wrong.

What's odd, though is some are only going for $1,000. The only difference I can see is the $5K one has a couple games.

EDIT: The auction just closed at over $10K. I posted the link with about 2 minutes to go.

I wonder if I write "360" on this with a sharpie how much it would go for.

I think you are missing the whole, this is now the hottest toy for the year and everyone and their mother will be talking about it the whole Christmas season thing going on here, which will make them lots of profit longterm. They do it on purpose. It has clearly worked after only one day as ebay can clearly show.

there are suggestions that it is a manufactured deficiency. microsoft states it's a result of an overly-ambitous multi-country launch.

I find it odd that they don't have enough to sell, yet they've given away thousands of consoles over the last few months (one an hour here in Canada, and one every ten minutes (!) I believe in the US).

I think Microsoft likes the supply problems, because it will get them some attention by the media and make the system seem like *the* thing to get this holiday season. I'm fairly sure, they will be readily available by Christmas (the first Xbox was hard to find for like two weeks, and then it was in stock everywhere).
