I realize that I get a skewed perception by hanging out on internet message boards, but even factoring that in I think that a good 1 out of 3 ppl buying the new system are doing so in order to eBay it.
Are the prices really going to hold up at the level some seem to think?
Right now $1600 is pretty standard for a PS3 on eBay, but the only ppl who can sell are the very select few with a pre-order receipt.
If 400k units go on sale 11/17 and even just 1 out of 4 people sell we're looking at over 100,000 units up for sale. There's absolutely no way there are 100,000 ppl out there that will pay even $1200 for a gaming system.
Are we going to see a huge deflation in values on launch date?
