The only thing more pathetic than people trying to make a lot of money off of these (especially after what happened with the PS3) is people messing with said auctions:

This guy hosed at least 4 of one sellers auctions (I'm assuming he hosed them because he's a "no longer registered" user):

Here's another, but this seller was asking for it with that high of a BIN:

Another new user with private feedback, definitely suspicious:

Basically it seems any auction over $550 or so has a suspicious looking buyer. Real ones go for $450 - $550. Those sellers oasisboy pictured with multiple Elite's are going to be sorely disappointed and will be doing much returning in a few weeks . But, seriously, you could tell from the early sales (from all the stores that broke street date which of course didn't happen with the PS3 or Wii) that these weren't going to get much - pretty dumb to buy 9 of them for resale .

I've had mine for over 12 hours now, guess I should open it! (Didn't have time to play today so I didn't want to tempt myself - plus I need an HDMI->DVI converter first).

I got mine Sunday and my local bestbuy still had like 13 left but no other stores really seemd to have any that I could tell. I mostly got it so I could give my old one to a family me and my girlfriend know who can't afford one. Its nice seems like my overall audio experience is nicer and it seems quieter but then its newer to so its hard to say. I also didnt notice anything different about the D pad myself.

All the auctions that are almost done right now aren't even at 500 bucks... I'm surprised. I figured it would go for a bit more than retail.

that black hd-dvd drive is funny. spray. paint. although that's quite a bit of effort with the black remote and doctored manuals... but the box & manuals could be the normal ones, can't tell in the photo.

back on topic: I saw the elite at each of target, kmart, and best buy that I went to yesterday.

 

[Apossum]

Wow, one guy bought all the recent Buy-it-nows over retail price. what a dick :lol:

but the sellers are dumb for not requiring instant payment.
