I was browsing e-bay for a couple of minutes and found that many PS3 are not getting more than $1500, and MANY of them are going cold turkey like the auction of this optimistic fellow:
Fact #1678231312: People are not buying the PS3 for the games dufus
Other examples are:
$2500 for a PS3?, that's so 11-16-2006
The only thing you had in hand was your money and now is gone.
So, if you are still under the PS3 spell, here is the tip to get a PS3: hit the returns desk at your major retail chain and "camp", it sounds totally far fetched but so does believing that SONY does the best for their costumers. I'd bet some PS3 "investors" will call it even getting their money back.
Let's face it, most of the people that got the PS3 are not gamers, like the girl that was in a PS3 camping line "just for the thrill", keep aiming for that pole at the nude bar hon. Their so called "investment" is damned to be marginal, no HDTV set for you I'd say.
Finally, PS3 "investors" will realize that the only winners of this whole debacle were Ebay and it's sister company Paypal. PS3 "investors" gave them most of their 5 days camping-barely-eating-pissing-in-a-bottle days in charges for posting auctions, final sales cuts and money transactions with credit cards, lovely huh?.
And that's how capitalism works!!!.
For SONY as always:
Right here guys, you couldn't develop a better controller, you couldn't get a plan to reach your true fans and you are still hiding behind your wives skirts in shame.
