They are being pulled because the people paying $100 or $200 think they got a system for that price! Ebay is having to do lots of refunds. The box is not worth that kind of money.Very sad and also very scary!
-------
As an FYI my Day One Edition box was just pulled from eBay. I did list it correctly in packaging etc and was not trying to pass it off as a console but it was removed. Sucks as they were going for $100-200+ but nothing you can do. All the ones I was watching were pulled as well.
This is why you always meet inside a business. Not outside!
Amazon doesn't provide the serial number to you. Just make a note of it in the chance he comes back to you and complains about a defective console.I'm not used to selling much stuff on Craigslist and I'm only selling my PS4 because I bought an Xbox One and figured I don't need both right now.
I got the console from Amazon and the customer wants a receipt with it. I printed up the order invoice from Amazon but the serial number isn't located anywhere. Does it make that big of a difference? Any advice from people selling consoles they received from Amazon?
I talked to the guy on the phone and he seemed legit, he's buying it for his son and his son will be there with him. Everything seems good, just want to double check.
not sure if this indicates anything, but xbone in stock at amazonAmazon doesn't provide the serial number to you. Just make a note of it in the chance he comes back to you and complains about a defective console.
are you a true ceap ass gamer and a true gamer or are you just a *** looking to rip off people that just want a system because they are a true gamer. i don't mind people doing this at launch day but dude this is getting over the line.Picked up 10 more from the amazon sale just now as Indiana said it lasted only 29 minutes and was only 1 per account.
Xbox has slowed a bit still going for a premium 600-650 per unit but not hard to find if you look. especially if you don't mind buying a big bundle. Hard to make any money after ebay fees and paypal fees.
As for the PS4 Sold another 8 units today all in the 650 range plus shipping. Online demand is much higher then local craigslist the last few days.
Looks like the PS4 continues to climb as retailers are now holding stock for ads they are doing so they have something.
He's an idiot starved for attention. None of what he says is true... you can check the completed eBay listings to confirm that. Once he gets called out on this user id he'll be back on another proclaiming his infinite wisdom.are you a true ceap ass gamer and a true gamer or are you just a *** looking to rip off people that just want a system because they are a true gamer. i don't mind people doing this at launch day but dude this is getting over the line.
why are you on a website that is made for cheap ass gamers when you are not a gamer im calling BS on everything you have ever said. still puzzles me how you found this site if you are not a gamer.Guys demand is stronger then ever on ebay not sure why you all hate or just don't seem to understand how things work, Cost is what somebody deems something to be worth it happens every day in life. Its all about supply and demand just like anything else, Anything that is limited has demand and as for your tax comment I am happy to pay my taxes, All my ebay transactions are recorded and once you go over 20K in sales in paypal you get a Tax form so yes my taxes are covered . Am I a gamer ? not in the least I could care less but I don't mind profiting on them and a parents craze . Do a little search on ebay and see what auctions are going for, Also most ebay users don't have the patients for auction format and just buy it now even if its 50.00 higher then spending the time in an auction. Remember your chants of Scumbag when you buy your next car and don't want to pay sticker or when you buy your house and they have it listed for 480,000 and you offer 420,000 see if you call yourself scumbags. Some of you should lay off the gaming and get yourself into a good economics class so you can learn how things work.
As for todays update all units from Amazon are gone prices have leveled off in the 650 range plus shipping. But they sell as fast as you can get them we are also seeing limited availability in all stores as they are now pooling any inventory for sunday ads to get folks into the stores. Prices will slowly rise until Christmas. Xbox one is showing more availability and prices have come down a bit. Not interested in loading up on any XBOX units not enough room to do a flip anymore. Only units I hold are First day edition ones and they will hold there value.
Happy Flipping!
No I'm the guy that doesn't gamble and thinks you are an ass for taking advantage of other people. You give capitalism a bad name. You are neither a consumer nor a producer, your contribution is solely to shave money out of the whole thing and provide zero benefit. You are helping create the scarcity the requires your "service". When someone is both source of the problem and the solution people usually call that a con game. Those 19 PS4s you said you proudly ordered from Amazon yesterday when they came up could have been bought for retail by people that would use them, but instead you are extracting by your own estimates around $2,000 for simply standing in the way.Were better to gauge a market then the end user? Nobody is rubbing anything in your eye this thread is dedicate to the buying and flipping of Next generation units when it was started. I don't care if you welcome me with open arms or not, I am just giving other flippers in this market some information on what is taking place out there. Take all the information you seem to have and just do an advanced search on ebay and look for complete auctions and tell me what you see. As far as a gamer wanting a system? Do what any normal person would do, Wait it out until there is plenty for sale and there is no flip market and you can have all you want at retail price. The factor of the matter is be mad at Sony and Microsoft this is done on purpose so the media feeds on it. You cant buy press like that. Also lets be realistic the game library on each unit is very small at the moment I am not even a gamer and I know that. Your the same guy who gets mad when he makes a bet at the casino and looses and then says its rigged? Didn't you know that before you put your money down.
Good luck to all my fellow flippers will post another update come Friday.
I'm not here to gloat but damn... we had people predicting they would clear $2,000 per system and were going to buy a new Audi from their next gen flipping profits.... AND THEY WERE BEING SERIOUS!I think GBstart was right, if you didn't get in opening weekend you are basically wasting your time on xbone and making little to no profit on ps4 time to get them return receipts and rma numbers together.
Of course there was money to be made. All kinds of it. But not enough to go ape shit crazy and pull the stunts that the OP was discussing under his numerous alt accounts (having people wait in lines, paying employees for stock information, hounding people in the parking lot, etc.).I didn't get to make a ton of profit but the next gen release helped in turning a lot of my store credit at GS, Amazon, and TRU into cash. It may not seem like a worthwhile effort but when you consider the interest value of hundreds of dollars of credit, it's great for liquidity considerations. PS4's were easy to make some profit on top of the cash conversion while Xbone's were just barely above breakeven propositions.
he is probably buried under them. it seemed like he had a whole warehouse room full of it, along with all the profit in $ cash he made.What happen to supercomputer and his abundant stock of xbone and ps4? I guess he had to return them systems lol.
Nah he has a warehouse of "murdered" out Audi's that he bought from the $2,000 of profit he made on EACH PlayStation 4 and Xbox One console he sold. He was able to do this because he had super human resale skills.he is probably buried under them. it seemed like he had a whole warehouse room full of it, along with all the profit in $ cash he made
i am not sure, if i am comfortable in having anyone unload anything on me. i will pass.Still have 3 PS4s and a Xbox One I can't unload. Anyone want me to unload one on them? I'll only charge for shipping.
