well we went all around this morning to all different stores and they were all filled up and then we went in one walmart in ohio and they just had like 30 people in lay away. I was there for no more than 20 minutes and the manager came out with an officer and said ok heres how we will settle this. I want everyone in a ordinary fashion please line in front of me. I was there before he said go and I was 4th in line!!! He gave out slips of paper on who gets them in the line first and I was the last to get the 60gb so that made my day for waiting 20 minutes when everyone else was there since 6am and i just got there around 10 and it was 10 20 at the time. So here are some pics, i cant wait to pick it up later and put it on ebay!!

look how much they are going for!! new shocks here i come:devil: :devil:

why would someone pay $10,000 to play video games...if they want it they can save themselves over $9000 by going and waiting themselves. and if theyre losing money by waiting in line instead of going to work i doubt theyre losing $10,000 a day. thats ridiculous. but on the other hand looks like youll be buying more than just some new shocks! :D

im gunna try and find one tomarrow. i doubt i will but if i do im sticking it on ebay

11-16-2006, 04:23 PM
yeah but what about the big text to the right that says.....
this ticket does not guarantee purchase. i wanted for 6 hours in line to get a 360, which got the 3 ring of lights thing a couple months ago, in which i ended up trading it off (still very pissed about that). when i did that i had a ticket like that from walmart..and they said you have to stay in the store.
the fact that it says that...what if someone comes up before you and says i lost my ticket..can they purchase it. why does it say does not guarantee purchase.. ? ?

i have no clue but the ticket is numbered, when we go up there they will call our number and give them the ticket, we talked to the manager and he said we will get it:p

Between me and a coworker, we have 7 of them. We went in on it together and put our names one every preorder list that we could. All of them are going on ebay. We started listing them yesterday. Two of them already sold for over $2400 each.

people are just bidding them up on ebay. they aren't actually going to pay 10k for a playstation. same thing happend to xbox. 90% of the auctions over 2k weren't payed for.

not that 2k would be bad for a 600 dollar investment.

its all BS, sony just needs to release enough for everyone so this bs doesn't happen at all. it would make everyone alot happeir.

if i was smart, i wouldve thought of preordering a few months ago so i could put them up on ebay the day i got them. there were 10 tents set up in front of the local best buy that have been there since tuesday. in a fit of rage and jealousy knowing these people would be making a huge profit from selling, i drove by and called them mega n00bl3rs and sped away. me and my friends felt cool for .6 seconds.

what a waste of time. vidieo games in general. I play super mario for nes or super nes every so often. But I thought that 300$ for a vidieo game was ridiculious. And the games are 50$ last time I checked.

11-16-2006, 08:40 PM
yeah that is a ****load of money for a console. and as far as that drive by goes..it was done with a bb gun. stupid kids.

I just got back from waiting at a walmart here, i just ran up there and waited for about 10 mins. they came out at 10 and handed out the tickets. They handed out 14 tickets, but CLEARLY stated they do not have even half of that number:huh and that they will determine who gets what and the remaining ticket holders will have a rain/check or what they described as being able to purchase one IF the true winners had a payment isuue(not have all the cash, card not work, bad check, ect......) kind of a cheesy way in my opinion, half of those poor souls with tickets arent gonna get anything, and have been waiting for days..... The Actual first in line "camper" sold his spot this morning there for $1200.00, i thought that was pretty funny.

That's alright I'll wait a year and then get one. There are going to have just as many problems as the 360 when that one came out. I can't wait to see how many people are back in line becasue something broke on it already or it won't even turn on.


James

And as for paying that kind of money for one on e-bay, if someone is stupid enough to pay that kind of money good for you, I wish I was smart enough to get a couple and do that.


Look at this stupid idiot he's bidding $10,000 what a $%^^ing moron.

Current bid: US $9,999,999.90 with 26 minutes left. I seriously doubt someone's going to pay that. 1 Million? Wtf?

11-17-2006, 06:35 AM
yeah I didn't understand that one either. I could see someone paying around 2 grand for one but when the get up that high I really doubt that they will pay. I know some of the sellers that I read say that if you buy there's as a bonus they will give you a trip to Las Vegas. That was one the was going for $7500.

I'd kick myself in the nuts before I ever paid over $1000 for a game station , actually I'd kick myself before I ever paid $500 ... then you have to buy the games for like $70 each . RETARDED !!!!!!!

It's got nothing on the Cabbage Patch Kid craze in the mid 80's.
