    I read something on digg, it was probably one of the top digged posts (I don't tend to read any others). Apparently Amazon is going to sell them for $100.

    Sounds like the Tickle me Elmo doll phenemenon a number of years ago.
    They purposely let customers believe there was a shortgage, and this increased the hysteria to obtain the product. Great marketing ploy.

    This is quite interesting. I got home today and found a big box dropped off at my front door with ten of these PlayStation games. I guess I'll use one to play pong or frogger and sell the rest of them on Ebay. :)

    One apparently sold for $99,999,999.00

    (I don't think).

    Funny that the winning bidder is now " Not a registered user"
    Coincidence?

    LOL, the top 50 bidders or so on that auction are not registered users anymore.

    Like I said: People are pretty screwed in the head.

    I don't think so, Sony loses about $200.00 on each unit they sell as it is (guess they make it up in game sales), but more importantly, the PS3 include a blu ray player and it's gonna be a while before blu ray players drop to $100.00 by themselves.

    This might be it for Sony.

    They've been going downhill for a while now. Don't they have an American CEO? :shock:

    Thats insane. (Presuming its priced really high :p, I have never owned one and never inquired about it either)

    What is the cost of this thing originally?

    I know XBOX 360 costs something like $500. My cousin bought one recently.

    I was thinking of buying a WII for my husband, but I don't think I will be able to get it with the going prices. It's supposed to be out tomorrow, anybody know's what the retail price is ?
