I just watched a 360 go for $2,025 on eBay and it was only the higher system (retail $399) plus free 2nd day air shipping 
Seems the eBay going rate is a minimum of $1800 plus shipping

There is a rumour that costco has them, and that they're not making a big deal out of it.
I'm going there tonight to see if this is true. If I get one, I'll be putting it up on ebay tonight

Me and my wife sat in line at Best Buy and got 2 premiums.
We saw how crazy it was and how much they go for on ebay and made her sister and brother sit in line as well.
The only reason we have these is to sell them
.
I will buy one after, when the frenzy dies down since I only play Halo2 as it is.
We sell stuff on ebay all the time(power sellers..well.. we were till ebay suspended us for no reason) and know we will at least double our money.
No one in town has one any more and no one knows when the next shipment will be. The funny thing is, I went to Wal_Mart at 11pm thinking I would pick one up for self enjoyment....Next thing I knew I was a Best Buy camping out at 12:30 am in Nebraska 30degree weather.

How much you get them for? Did they charge retail or did they put a fee on top of that
So if you only brought 300, you were out of luck because you hade to buy a "premium" bundle wether it was a core or premium.

don't check out costco, they are out too.
I called every circuit city best buy in a 100 mile radius. I also called no less than 10 Walmart supercenters and they are all out. Looks like Microsoft only gave out a few at each store to spread the inventory. None of them know when the next shippment is going to be.
i should have just mugged the kids that stood in line with $500 in cash...

You Americans are You always camp out or way overpay for "crazy" stuff such as this, when in a couple of weeks it would become widely available and abundant. Crazies are paying a few thousand $$ for something that would be a couple hundred bucks a couple weeks from now.
