I actually heard (well actually read, but who cares) that you will be able to sell PS3's for $2,000!!!! A good investment if you ask me, start the bidding at $650 and let the bidding commence

Just thought i'd bring this up in case you guys haven't heard about it .

Good investement, it's too late for me to get one. All I know is that people in England are going to be desperate for a PS3 considering they're not going to be getting any shipments till 2007.

Yup, I am selling mine that I am getting and buying one mid next year as I have the 360 and am also getting the Wii. All 3 next-gen consoles WILL be in my set-up by mid next year though.

Lol, going to wal-mart to get a PS3, I don't think that'll work out well. Hopefully they'll get alot of PS3's.

We had it wrong the whole time! It's the PS3 that prints money! (minorly inside joke, for any newbies here) Too bad that's all it's good for.

Yes, I am sure the heads of Sony that make a few million a year kept Ps3s on purpose to sell on eBay for a $1,000 profit. Makes complete sense.

I dont agree with this, it drives up the cost of consoles for other people and means there is less in stores for launch

Also, copied games drive of the cost of the games
