hyper_monkey20 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2006 What is funny if you actually do the math, 99 million dollars could buy you almost half of the total consoles that were availible for launch in North America, or 165,000 to be exact. Obviously though this is a fake situation where someone has essentially 'bought it out' to discourage people from bidding... Still, 99 million dollars? Someone must of been on something.I guess people really want their consoles, i'm just going to wait for a used one in a year or two, saves money for more games and i'm getting the exact same unit. Unless... this generation is so good no one sells theirs. Well, that's highly unlikely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That person isnt very smart if he paid that much for it. But i doubt that was real. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cool_Freaker 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2006 They're not being idiots, rather they're staging their own protests against the people who bought several PS3's only to make a profit online. By bidding extremely high results, they're preventing people from making a profit as quickly/easily, as the seller has to remove the dummy bids (meanwhile those who are making legit ones, cannot). Considering the number of consoles that were bought for the sole purpose of reselling for a profit, I can understand why real gamers are angry when they stood in line only to be denied a console.

FLaKes 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2006 thats just plain ridiculous. I wonder why people pay so much for these units, they can easily pay some one a fraction of that price to camp or wait in line for one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mvwi 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2006 It is rediculous for someone to bid that much. I'd rather to win one for free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
