Wow great, I was supposed to get off work today around 1 so I planned to go Wii hunting then. However, things took longer than expected and I ended up going around 4. To my surprise, the first store I went to (TRU) had 7 60GB PS3s!! but no Wiis. Dang, any insider information or tips? My informant is unreachable in Mexico currently.

You're just going to have to wait until they start showing up or appear in one of the Sunday ads.

Stores just got shipments of PS3s today. That must mean they're still selling and Sony =! fail. Thread over, shut the fuck up.

I saw 5 Wii's when I was at Toys R Us about 2 hours ago. Doesn't look to be doing that great on ebay so I just left them.

Just the system alone is ending up around $400. That's not doing great for a system that in stores costs $250?

So say I make $400, I take away the $250+ tax I paid for it, the fee's ebay takes, and then I HOPE I don't get scammed by the buyer. Not good enough for me to risk it.

You mentioned a Wii right? Its only natural I point out how inferior it is to the PS3.
I saw a Wii in a magazine once. It obviously isn't selling well.

No, YOU were the one being defensive. For some reason you were offended by what I said so YOU brought up the PS3.

Whoknows,
So you saw some wiis, did you happen to see long they were available?
Really you seem to be the one that’s ruining the thread. While the thread itself is pointless, you should really take that up with the op insted of starting a flame fest.
you say getting something for 250 and selling it 400 is not worth it? i call your bluff. You didn’t even bother to look at ebay to see how they were selling, your just trolling in the worst way (with ignorance).
It seems to me you’re a bit peeved about ps3 availability in some areas. Sure their may be too many threads about it, but if their are too many threads about it, maybe that adds to the merit of ps3 availability.
I think a lot of people are stunned by actually seeing a ps3 in the wild. We were told that they would be the hard toy to find. It seems this is not the case. Is I wrong to point this out? Or are you jumping to conclusion, and getting defensive about the ps3 availability. Is their something that you fear in having the ps3 be available in stores. I don’t understand. please explain why this is bad.

Why would I care about PS3 sales? I don't own Sony or work for Sony. Their financial status doesn't affect me in the least bit, so no, it doesn't bother me.
The OP said he couldn't find a Wii and I said I saw some, what's the big deal? And no, I'm not big into ebay which is why it's not worth it for me, my account has about 10 feedback because I barely ever use it which would affect how much the Wii sold for. (and I saw them about 5pm if thats what you were asking).
And furthermore, if I knew so many people would be offended by me finding a Wii and not buying it I wouldn't have mentioned it.
