[quote name='RadLey']I already have a TE stick lying around. I bought one about 2 weeks ago.
And GameStop decided to give me a call after waiting 4-5 months; calling about 50 stores every other day and held one for me to buy for myself. Luckily I found one before they were able to call me. Third, where is the money going? [/quote]
then u know how the rest of us feel about calling into GS/GC waiting for amazon, then some guywho doesnt even need the stick decides to scoop one up and sell it for $80 above MSRP.
Sorry for posting on the Cheap Ass Gamer forum. I'll post somewhere else, I was just trying to help raise funds for this shindig.Anyways I won't be posting ads here for the TE stick anymore.
the irony of it is.... this place is for people who aren't willing to pay for MSRP for games, thats why i CAPS the wors CAG, people are willing to wait it out and pay $10 for mirrors edge, $15 for bioshock, ect.
sure ur tourney idea sounds good, but ure ripping off people who really want the stick. u said u have a "te stick laying around" u said it urself u dont have that much money, either do the rest of us. SF4 is hot as shit right now, u dont need an extra $75 to get people to come. SRK members host weekly tournies with 25+ people showing up every week and the buy in is only $5
if i come off as a jerk its because i want to be because ive been looking for a TE stick for so long and the people who dont even need one are buying one just to make an extra profit for whatever reason.
gamestop always manages to just "sell that last one earlier" or amazon always sells out within 5 minutes while im at work.
