Just wondering how everyone else was doing sales wise. How much have you made off of it, just want to compair my figures with everyone else.

Bought:
2 Premium Box's
4 Core Box's

Made: $4,493.00
Paid $2129.28
Profit $2363.72

Time into all of this:
8:00am moday to 10:00am tuesday= 26 hours
around $90/hr

Not that bad, only thing that sucks is that I have the worse head ache, feels like I have been drinking the entire time. Damn, never doing this again!! Well maybe once more this week...

But ya post up your profits with XBOX 360

My buddy (same guy that's been modding systems for years now) has 14 right now Plus an additional one for his personal use.

12 Premiums and 2 Cores.

He was smart when he reserved his, he had like 7-8 other people buy 2 each (he supplied the money of course).

He has 'em stacked in his room like a Christmas tree. Atif- i was over there when you called :D

My roommates acquired around 5. Some are on Ebay now so dont really know about profits yet. Though I did get paid around 60 bucks to get one for a friend just because you could only get one a piece.

I didnt even buy one and I made profit.

God bless America.

wow I feel like an idiot for not doing this :headslap: I had a friend that did this back when ps2's came out. So does this only work because it's xmas season or would this work when ps3's are released? ;)

Only works at Xmas. Every year there is a gotta have it item. This year its the 360. With the PS2 coming in the Spring there will not be many parents who absolutely have to have it for thier kids.

This is off topic but whats the difference between the xbox's the core and premiums??? i haven't kept up with the new video game systems

rickgiblin
11-24-2005, 08:51 AM
the core if i get this correct does not have the internal memory and some other goodies, but the premimum system has i think a internal memory so you dont have to use a memory stick or whatever, and it comes with the dvd remote. its actually better to buy the premiums if you can... i know im gonna try to buy like 3 tomarrow. :) wish me luck

I should make more tomorrow, 10 premiums comming in, maybe 14, so lets see at $900 each thats $500 profit, times 10, 5g's? Hopefully my bud pulls through tonight so I can get all of em.

Well I ended up only getting 3 tonight, but I dont think its bad compaired to the total amount they had, 4. The thing I thought was funny was the way they decided to give them out, they just opened the doors and made everyone RUN to electronics and it was first come first serve, and boy was it crazy.

I got up there around 12:30 this morning, I was right behind a kid who had been there since 9:30 the day before. WEll around 4am all the moms started to line up waiting for the 6am door open. Around 5:45 these two women walk up and just stand right behind us, now there is a line LITERALLY 100-200 people long and lets just say moms with little sleep and that NEED to shop arent to kind to cheaters. So one lady "claims" that shes the other ladys daughter and her "mom" was in a walker and thinks that she can just walk right in and be first in line. I didnt pay any attention to it because they were behind me so who cares. Well come 6 they start to upen the doors, but something happens to one of the doors so they have to puch everybody back. once we get back i feel somthing on my back leg. I didnt think twice about it, but then all the sudden I felt 2 fingers going down my back pocket. I took my hand a reached for my back pocket and what did I find...? The handicap mother's HAND WITH HALF MY WALLET IN HER HAND!!! FUCK!! You best believe I bitch slapped the hell out of her arm, I swear I hit is so hard that I was suprised that she didnt yell. Right after that, not even half a second later, everyone runs through the door. This is the funny part, ends up that on my way out there was a cop car out frunt becasue someone got trampled at the door, and guess who it was. The old mother! Serves her right!. SO I walked over to the police to tell them what happend with her and me earlier. THey ended up searching her and found 3 wallets and 2 purses in her car. Ends up she wasnt handicap and that here and her "daughter" have been doind this for a while. They auctaully had warrents out for their affest in south GA for some other crap. Well to make a story short, she was taken away to jail right then and there, her "daughter" was never found, and they reconvered like over $3000 in stolen cash, and 10 credit cards. I guess shit always comes back 10 times worse to those who are bad, never really believed it untill then.

Anyone else got any BLACK FRIDAY stories?

Freakin insane price for something you dont even NEED.

people were bitching about poeple gouging gas 2$ but it's ok to gouge 600$ on a toy :jester: :crazy:


I'm sorry but if youre paying over $1000 for a gaming console, you need to have your head checked and get a life.
