Will it be worth it?
« on: December 16, 2005, 04:55:10 pm »
This Sun (Dec. 18) Best Buy is selling a bunch more XBox 360's (my local one is suppose to get over 50)  I could care less about owning one, but I'm wondering if they'll still be selling for a lot on ebay.  Since its basically the second wave of the console obviously the prices will go down, but do you think I could still make a few hundred on ebay if I camp out and buy one(or two) for retail price?  A few wasted hours for a few hundred dollars would be worth it.

heres a website that says how many each bestbuy is supposed to get: http://www.xboxtoday.ca/12092005/19/xbox_360_allocation_numbers_for_best_buy

Just checking on E-bay now...the prices are down a LOT.  All of the crazies have gotten theirs.  I'd say you'd not make much...

just MHO however.
