I will agree that many of those that sold that high are probably not going to receive their money. I am all for free enterprise and if I had the time I would have done the same thing.

I think it's kinda lousy to buy a frickin' XBox for $400 and turn around and resell it for $1000 or whatever. But hey, if some dumb bastard is desperate enough to pay that kinda money, who am I to argue?

I'll have one eventually, but good things come to those who wait; I'm not going through holiday hell or EBay scalpers over a video game system.

I paid $2,000 for the new xBox.

Even though I consider the person who sold it to me is practically a thief for charging so much, I still sent him a check for the full amount without a second thought.

probably the seller with a bogus account who bid it up just to insure he was going to get what he wanted. If the bidding stopped going up he would artifically drive it up himself and hold on to it.

My thoughts exactly!

I personally think anyone who pays $400 for a video game system teetering on the edge of sanity, if you pay 10x that amount, you've done fallen off that edge.

You think that's bad....here's an auction for an Email address related to Xbox360 and it went for $1K Idiots.

Read the description carefully

Screw the XBox and the XBox 360!!! I'm going for the Playstation 3.
From what I've heard, some of the old XBox games wont work on the 360 where as all the old Playstation and the Playstation 2 games will work for the Playstation 3!!

Stood is not spelled the same as would or could or should, even though it does sound the same.
