PS3 hopefuls line up weeks before launch {Engadget}
Nov 11th 2006 9:25AM "Why not go bust out some hours at a JOB for those 2 weeks and buy one on ebay for $1500?"
Obviously these guys do not have a working job and are die hard gamers. So they cant afford $1500, and they dont wanna work to buy one for that price either. If you consider the ramifications of what you are suggesting, that is like paying $1000 overvalue. At $10 an hour you'd have to work 100 hours for that kind of money in California here, 100 hours comes out to about 2 and a half weeks at 40 hours a week. You are actually saving time by waiting 10 days rather than having to work 12.5 days because remember they want the machine regardless of any logical reasoning.
The Jerk commends them for their crazy die hard efforts.
And obviously these guys are not resellers so dont knock the true gamers, knock the resellers that are the reason why someone who truly wants the machine would need to even consider spending 10 days out in the cold for a machine that they know a scalper would have tried to sell them at beyond market value.
Oh one more thing, too bad for those presellers on ebay, when they have to revoke their PS3 auctions on ebay, because if they dont get in line that day there are no guarantees that the store will hold your system. It happened before with Xbox 360 where they revoked all resell tickets til the 2nd shipment and it will happen again unless they wait in line for one on launch. Silly ebayers.
