Well, I just camped out at a Walmart in Westerly RI for 30ish hours to get playstation 3. I was 4th in line and there were 6 sold. I had people offer me as much as 1500 cash on the spot just for my position in line. 1500 bucks strait profit for nothing. I did not take their offers though, as i could sell it on ebay ( my plan) for 2600 and get 2000. It cost me $642.93 to buy, and the profit goes towards my lift/tires.

It was pretty crazy living at a walmart and sleeping there and whatnot and was totally worth it considering the profit i will make.
 
I heard the marketing exec on the radio this morning saying that they will not be able to satisfy the demand for the PS3 until spring. I couldn't believe it when they said that they would sell on ebay for upwards of $2000- that is absolutely insane! In any case, congrats on the score!
 
There where people waiting in line at the Best Buy a couple towns over and the cops showed up tonight and told them they had to leave and they could come back at 7 am. :D
 
A cop rolled up to us and talked to us, he was young and was cool about it. He jokingly said he would cut us , and if we had a problem with it, he would arrest us for loitering. lol

I'd have taken the cash and been back at home, too damn cold outside.

Over rated :rolleyes:


Complete sensory implant...that's the way to go, and it wouldn't cost all that much more.

Or, if life is so bad you have to escape into game-world, a .45ACP under the chin is always a viable option, and much cheaper.

Enough time to run upstairs for coffee and see what happens...

For that kind of money I'd hand deliver it, probably have an IRS agent or two to keep me company tooo... :D
 
Closed at 89 million, good rep on the buyer too...
