PS3s on Ebay

<p>Any of you college kids like gaming? Well, it's ridiculous how much those PS3's are fetching on Ebay. I just saw one sell for $4,000. Every single one with less than 10 minutes less is above $2200.
It's insane.</p>

<p>when the ps4 comes out im hiring an army of hobo's to stand in line and buy them in behalf of me.</p>

3

<p>haha, well, i wish I would have waited outside, because $2500 in profits sounds really nice right about now.</p>

<p>People are idiots.</p>

<p>A bunch of guys from my math class have missed like two days of class because they were camping out in front of the store to get them. They came back to class today and the professor was joking with them about how those PSs might be good but his lectures are priceless... one of the guys was like "Yeah, but I just sold my first one for $2800. I can read your lectures for free and get any <em>priceless</em> notes for free from any guy in the class." </p>

<p>... I think it kind of dumb but whatever. Who am I to judge? I've spent tons of money on some things that might seem really dumb to some.</p>

6

<p>and the professor didn't kick them out of class after a comment like that?</p>

<p>They're not idiots for standing in line and making a profit of about $2200... that's just capitalizing on an opportunity! High demand, low supply.</p>

<p>Of course, I myself wouldn't camp out for days to do something like that.</p>

8

<p>dude, the people who pay $2000+ for a PS3 are the idiots.</p>

9

<p>Or rich.</p>

<p>If I knew I was going to make that kind of money, I would have stood out there...but I don't really "game" so I didn't even realize it was coming out until it was too late.</p>

<p>I agree, some people have absolutely no concept of delayed gratification and patience.</p>

<p>Ah, yes. I don't understand why people can't just wait a couple extra days/weeks... they've already waited for a year or two.</p>
