its gonna be bitch regardless to get one..

all department store managers have a HOLD on them bitches..

I know for a fact were supposed to be getting in the range of 50 or so.. but you'd have to wait in line from 6am the day before to get one.. just pay someone to camp out for you..

well I know for a fact that my buddy who has connections ALL OVER THE DAMN PLACE is getting 6...

when the 360's came out, he got 2 cases of the premium ones..

another friend of mine who has a small business is supposed to be getting 4 of them...

when I was working during the dayshift lastyear when the 360's came in through the trucks we stuffed like 4 boxes of them away and bought a majority of them.. but this year I work on nightshift so I won't be able to grab a few.. but after the release date I could come into some before xmas..

10-26-2006, 06:15 PM
Well, my buddy said his Brandsmart was getting them too. I was asked was I going to buy one, said no, but after this info, I may do it myself.lol Oh yeah, does this guy want a " ;) hookup"? Or wanna buy it quicker like before it actually comes out?....Vegeta

I have a buddy too that works at the Brandsmart in Stockbridge...

He talks to the playstation vender all the time.. so I'll ask him..

but all those ps3 my friends have are spoken for.. well, kinda... the money is there.. but their waiting until a few days after to see how much people are paying for it on EBAY then they'll sell them.. if I had the cash like that I'd buy one.. but its not that crucial.. I'll wait til the v2 come out and whatever problems they will have will be worked out

First release will probably be full of bugs like the 360. It's like buying the first model year of a car. Don't do it. Wait for them to work everything out then get one later.

Yawp-yawp, he's one of the guys that does that. I'd say his name, but don't wanna put him on blast in any way you know? But he also has another friend that works at the Gwinett Brandsmart, so I may hit him up as well, as he gets a slightly better discount.

20% Stockbridge, 50% at the other one.....Vegeta

10-26-2006, 06:43 PM
I just finished talking to him..

from what he's saying there are 400,000 preordered ones coming to the US for the release date which he said was the 17th?

He's getting them NOV 1st. placing them on ebay for $1800 a pop..

VegetaRules

Okay, the way he explained it, because he works for the security, & not Brandsmart, he get's 20% discount off how much it costs the store for an item. His buddy in the Gwinnett one actually works for Brandsmart, & since he'd been there so long he gets 50% discount....Vegeta

Oh I wasn't doubting you. I know alot of hustlers, & they always find a way to get that money. I was saying it'll be ownage for his pockets if he pulls that off. Hey more power to him.

I don't want one, but if I can get one cheaply, I may....Vegeta

ORGANIZATIONXIII
10-26-2006, 06:50 PM
damn thats a killer discount..

I know that anyone can go up to Brandsmart and actually HAGGLE the sales guy to 15% below the cost of the item shown, thats why my buddy told me its not really a discount b/c anybody can go up there and deal with them for a discounted rate..

when he explained this to me I was like :thinking: confused the shit outta me

Wow. No disrespect to anyone wanting a PS3 but I am so *not* wanting to drop half a K on a machine that only plays $60 video games that I still have to go out and buy. In two years the price will probably be down to $300, which is when I'll think about getting a used one (assuming I still have the time/desire to play it)

ORGANIZATIONXIII
10-26-2006, 08:38 PM
I doubt $300, but I feel you on the pricing..

but some people have hobbies, like cars.. gaming is one too

PS2 had a bug on them when they first came out. First the connectors in the back didnt secure tight, and like mine after 2 years they stop loading. So Im a wait and get a PS3 but in the mean time....Im a grab me some Mugen rims or possibly buy some more porno.

Crazy Asian
10-26-2006, 10:38 PM
Oh and "Limited Production" as in only 400,000 or so will be made...which I highly doubt then again this is Sony. You never fucking no.

^^^i don't think so, most of the ppl buying now are hardcore ps3 folks, once it actually releases ppl are goin to want to hold out for slightly lower prices.

Vteckidd
10-27-2006, 11:29 AM
so whats the RETIAL on the PS3, clue me in, im lost.

so if you go preorder are you GUARANTEED a PS3? or are you just guaranteed to get one when they have one in stock.

IE if a store is getting 10 units, BEFORE XMAS, will they presell 20? an the first 10 guys get theirs but the last 10 just have to wait

ORGANIZATIONXIII
10-27-2006, 11:30 AM
if you preorder, your guaranteed one, but it could take MONTHS to get one..

10-28-2006, 12:21 AM
wow... that shits insane... i'll just wait haha. i can't believe how much some people are willing to pay just to have a system a few months before it goes down to regular price. and i'm a huge gamer lol, but i still dont see the logic in that. there aren't even any real good games coming out at release as far as i can tell.

I work for BestBuy/GeekSquad. I'm in charge of inspecting and allocating our PS3 stock and distributing the fist batch of PS3's to the pre-order / high-dollar customers.

For the right price, I can manipulate the list... if you know what I mean. PM, $, thx.

PS3 FTL. put that money toward your CAR, bills. or something else. its not worth that price maybe if it dropped down a hundred maybe 50. but after the system and a couple games your at 1k.
