    I work at CC in Duluth, not MOG sorry. But i know we're getting very few. I believe Best Buy in Stone Mountain is getting about 35. I would assume CC at MOG should get around that same number. CC in Duluth shouldn't be getting that many since we suck

    yea i know there all in small amounts. i know that best buy got i think they said 20 or 30 and they were giving out tickets to get them at 5. we havent herd anything from the store managers or anyhting so im just currious. the rummor is that they have 20 but who knows... so im just wondering what package they have... the 299 or the 399 package.

    I think it's the $399. I wasn't too interested in finding out b/c i hate the XBOX. But i do believe we're starting out with the $399 package. Is there anybody out there with you?

    LOL Best Buy ALWAYS has those huge ass lines for everything and anything. I remember when i worked at BB during black friday 2 years ago, i got to work at 4:30am and the line of people already wrapped 1/2 - 3/4 around the building. But last year when i got to CC for work at 4:30, there was about 40-50 people outside. Hahaha CC sucks!

    The best part, for me if i wanted an XBOX 360, is that since i work there, i can just walk in through the side door, where the loading dock is at before all of you standing out there So while you guys are outside waiting all night in the cold, i could just show up at 9:30 or so, walk in the side door, and wait til the store opened up to buy one hahahaha. But i would only do that for PS3, not the XBOX

    if i were you i'd get as many as i can... those shits would make a KILLLING on ebay

    maybe would sell for upwards of 800 bux each?
    i did the same when the slim PS2 came out, but this is a whole nother story.

    trust me;... you'd be hard pressed to get one... if ur first in line you may get ONE, but no t more... if it were me... i'd sell that one... and just wait a few weeks who cares... then buy it... (that way i know whats good and whats not)... simple as that.
    also there'd be better deals and whatever... and with the extra cash i can have more bang for the buck, by only waiting 3 weeks.. (oh no!)

    Damn Hasan, that's a pretty good idea. I might have to flip one. But do you still think they'll be worth that much, even after they come out?

    who-lian wholian wholian.... think man think... basic supply and demand.
    if only x amount of xboxes are going to come out....for x amount of time... and there will always be rich fuckers who want shit now... yes..

    what i did was made auctions a few days b4 I even got hte PS2's, then prayed i was lucky enough to get them... that way if you dont go around to getting them... just file a lost or damaged item and that you have to remove the listing

    make the auction NOW... that way as soon as u get it, you can ship it out... and in the auction, put that you have it in ur possession and will ship it out as soon as auction ends lolz

    i bought 2 of 'em for 149.99. sold 'em for 300+ each (and this was WEEKS after the ps2 was sold out... the demand goes down slowly, so you better cash in now julian) Oh yeah for some easy extra cash.. .get the "PRP" or wutever its called at CC... the product replacement plan.. and include the receipt for wherever u got it... write that in the auction and the white ppl will go CRAZY.

    and one more thing... not everyone knows they are going to be sold out, specially the rich soccer moms, which means you still have time to cash in... right now its the nerd superxbox gamers that are ruling, the next wave is gonna be the super-sockermoms who want to get rare holiday gifts for bragging rights.
