My parents were at Gamestop this morning, and they got 3 ps3's. Of course they didn't get 1 since they were looking for Wii's, but we could have made a lot of money... I just thought that it was weird that Gamestop would have some...

Also, these people in front of my parents at Eb games were married, but they said they were not so they each got 1 and Eb games only had 2... Grr dumb people, I would be playing one now if it was not for them!

Well, they are selling closer to retail now...the hype is over. I see the Wii is still $100 profit though. I just want GameRush to get something.

They are still selling atleast $200 over retail, while not amazing is still worth something to scalper douches.

I really wish/hope by now that the people buying them actually want to play them.

PS I think that the term 'douchebaggery' adequately illustrates PS3 scalpers.

They have to be pissed, though. So many of them were already planning a week during their next six months of unemployment and watching bad comedy films on Comedy Central for that Caribbean cruise, or 'pimping' their otherwise worthless 'ride'. Hell, selling a PS3 can't even pay for their own PS3 anymore!

I'll raise a toast to the Serlingesque irony of all of the hoarders ruining it for each other. To vindictiveness and poetic justice! Cheers!

Ditto...plus enough money to buy a few Wii games, an extra Wiimote and Nunchuck, and a pair of cables.

I just got the call that I can pick one up at a Wal-Mart an hour away. I was going to try and hook someone up on here, but I don't want to drive that far to do it. Oh well.
