ebay karma

I'm really enjoying the fact that there's now more of a bounty on Ebay for the Wii than the Playstation 3. I mean, seriously, there are 1/10 as many PS3's. These things were going for thousands until they were actually available.

Now they shipped like 2 million Wiis and 200k PS3's, and a core PS3 is selling on Ebay for $540 now. That thing is $500 retail. A freaking $40 bounty on the PS3! No one wants the goddamn thing!

If you look, there are over 19000 hits for PS3 on Ebay. There's less than that for the Wii, and most of those are for remotes. And the Wii has at least a $100 premium on it, and often more than that.

Here's a lesson, folks. Buy a gaming system to actually play it. No one actually wanted the PS3 for anything other than selling it on Ebay. I love watching the invisible hand of the Market bitch slap greedy bitches.
