Ebgames/Gamestop to accept PS3 preorders on 10/10/06

No, I mean it's pretty bad...developers have been having issues. Having to restart the unit a lot, locking up, etc.
 
Gotcha. That wouldn't be too bad but it does come out in 5 weeks so you'd only save like $180. Minus well make it $100 per week.
 
i just called 6 other ones at various cities around the country and they all said no. threadstarter should be banned
 
600 + tax = $650-$655

minus eBay fees. (Multiples since you know some asshole will deadbeat you just to screw with you)

you're maybe looking at $100 for all that work.
 
See the price tag doesn't really scare me, i think its a terrible price to have in the current market, but from all the announcments to leaks of information that have spread about this. I really can't see any reason to buy it on opening day. I could see buying it a year from that day but not on opening day. I don't need to buy a 600 dollar Heater for my Tv.
 
I went by a different EB today and people were lined up since 2:30 to preorder the damn thing. I called a different store to see if they had any preorders left and he said no. We got to talking and it turns out that the stores are interconnected now and will know when more than one household has a reservation on the same item. I'm not sure how they could find out if you gave different phone numbers until you actually picked up the item or paid for it.
 
The only reason I found out was because I had put my name down months ago when my local store started preordering before allowed. They called today to tell me I had to drop another $50 to keep the preorder.

I called another store to ask if I could preorder one there tomorrow when the SKU is released and he said he didn't want to know how I knew this, but yes, I could preorder tomorrow.
