Must be nice to have your DS sell for $257 on eBay. Mine have only gone for $165-190.[/quote]
Nice...you are one of the reasons I can't purchase one as a gift because they are sold out....[/quote]
Nah, I let them set on the shelf for the few days before I bought them. People had a chance to get them where I live, its just that there is not a high demand for them in my town. Excuse me for buying them and selling them on ebay where there is a high demand for them. If you can't find one, you should do like others and pick one up off ebay before Christmas gets any closer.[/quote]
yeah, same here. i bought one on the day of release for myself, but no extras to sell (i don't like to do that sort of thing). But, i noticed how much they were going for on Ebay soon thereafter. When i went back to my TRU and BB, they both still had a shitload of DS's, and this was almost a week later! So yeah, I bought 3 more to sell on Ebay - the store still had 25+ systems in stock when I left - and 2 of them sold to European buyers.
The DS has been weird. Some parts of the country ran out much faster than others. Hell, we in Atl still had them available on Black Friday. I'm sorry that people in some other states couldn't find one, but it's not as though I hoarded these away from other gamers. There were plenty on hand here, and i figure i helped some other people get a DS when they otherwise coudn't have, and i managed to make some $$ in the process...everyone wins!![/quote]
Wow, I live in the NW Atlanta suburbs and there are completely none here, stores have even put up signs saying sorry they are sold out.
