[quote name='iheartmetal']shouldnt be too suprising, i mean, 2 days ago microsoft said stores will be getting more every week. it was a fake shortage made by them,
Robbie Bach "We are working around the clock to manufacture as many Xbox 360s as we can and are replenishing our retail channel week after week."
Peter Moore ""Our goal is to replenish inventory in the channel every week," he said earlier this week during an interview with GameSpot at the console's launch event, Zero Hour. "So lots of Xbox 360s are flowing in every single week. It's not like we're shipping and then going dry for two or three weeks."
Some shortage, i bet they will sell a million by years end if not more.[/QUOTE]
There is a shortage... They're spending quite a bit of money to fly these in directly from China once they come off the assembly line, the standard way to bring these in is by ship, which would result in going dry for about a month, then getting a bunch shipped in at one time. Flying them in is whats giving us the slow trickle we wouldn't otherwise have, they're getting more every week, but maybe 2 or 3 per store. Thats not a lot.
